How to export text layer from After effects into Photoshop

[Stefan Cargoski]

Hi forum.

Is there a way to export a text layer from AE into PS? I happen to play around with the tracking and kerning of a font, and need to get it into PS to do additional work. I treid to do the same tracking and kerning in PS, But I cant get it correct. So the only way to fix it is, if I can export the text into PS.

Thank you.

You can save a rasterized PSD using Save Frame as Layers from the menu, but that's as far as it goes. There is no way to get editable text this way since AE uses a different flavor of the Adobe Font Engine compared to PS. Can't really see the problem, TBH. PS' version is much more advanced and should easily be able to re-create anything you can do in AE.
