How can I copy multiple text layers? I am going to use the same text for some of my figures and rather than creating a new text, I would like to copy/duplicate multiple texts.

Is it possible that you are using an older version of Photoshop? In the current version, you can mark several layers in the Layers panel, copy and paste them into another document. Or mark the layers in the Layers panel. Then right click and select the Duplicate Layer command. In the dialog box you can then select an open document from the menu.

    You can drag and drop text layers between documents, so that may work.

     

    I also have some scripts on my Dropbox to import and export text layers to and from a text file, if you have a large number and want to automate the process. Look for "list to textlayers" and "Text Export" in the Photoshop scripts.
