Hi im wondering, is there a way i can convert a text box that has multiple lines of text into seperate individual text boxes?  for example, lets say i have the text box Below:

 

Hello There

Welcome to Photoshop

Have a Nice Day.

 

Lets say the words above are in one text box.  Is there a script or way where i can convert each line into a seperate textbox with the width and height of the bounding textbox touching the text perfectly?

 

Hello There : Is within its own textbox with the width and height touching perfectly against the letters.

Welcome to Photoshop: Is within its owntext box with the width and height touching perfectly.

Have a Nice Day. Is within its own textbox with Width and Height touching perfectly against the letters.

 

also, lets say the line height/spacing is very high and it looks like the below:

Hello There

 

Welcome to Photoshop

 

Have a Nice Day.

 

The above is within one textbox with a high line spacing/height set high.

 

i want to be able to still seperate the one text box into 3 seperate text box..(always for each line) and i want the X, Y upper left Coordinates (0,0) to always to remain in the same position they exist globally .... meaning, that after they convert into 3 textboxes they do not lose there exact position at all.

 

is this all possible??
