Lining out text in photoshop

Question

Dear forum members,

I am creating a logo that exists out of pure text. See the screenshot that I attached to this post.

Now, as you can see, I want this:

Broom

Ozone
LuringElement

BOLE would be vertical, bold and in another color compared to the remaining parts of the words.

BOLE, would be - most important of all - lined out so that:

room

zone

uring

lement

Would all start from the same position, as they do in the above 'plain' text.

I tried everything I could think of, but I just can't get it to line out properly.

Does anyone that knows what I want (my apologies if I'm rather vague-ish), how I can get what I want?

Is this even possible, at all?

Cheers,

G

Two ways.(maybe someone knows even more possibilities)

1 make two separate words instead of one so you can place the "b" separate from the "room" (use guides to be able to position accurately)

2 Place your cursor between the first en second letter, then use Alt + left/right arrow keys to change the kerning

Unless i'm missing something in your description, it looks like you could just type the text normally and then change the colors of the text.

That is, type Broom, hit return/enter, type Ozone, hit return/enter, etc for the rest.

Then using the Type Tool cursor to highlight parts of the text and change the color like highlighting the B and changing the color to lavender.
