I am trying to edit a menu and when I copy and paste the script it does not carry over the shadowing. I am new to Adobe PS and I dont even know how to shade in the first place! Someone please guide me in the right direction! Thanks

Please explain in a bit more detail, because I don’t understand what your problem is exactly.

I am taking a menu that has already been done, and re-doing it. Therefore, I am adding additional titles to the page. Most of the titles are in an orange color, with a gray shadow over it. When I copy and paste the words in this color and shading, the shading does not appear. It is only bright orange, rather than orange with a grey shadow over it. If i could email someone a copy of it for better understanding that would be great. Just let me know. Thanks!

If you are copying text and pastint the text into the text tool and the shadows are produced by  by a layer style you must add the layer style to the new text layer.  You could also drag drag the old text layer fro the layers palette on the other document and drop it onto the the new document then edit the text there. The layer style will come along for the ride.   I don't think your question belongs in the Photoshop script forum. I feel it should be in the Photoshop windows or Mac forum.
