Hello,

I would like to create the number 22 using the same font as the image below.

Thank you

    Thats amazing!

    I have no idea how you did that but i will give it a go! i have no experience with photoshop. Do you think it would be easier to do with a different font?


    Hi

    No just try that font - you can change it later if required.

    The steps are

    1. Use the text tool to type the charcaters (in the character panel - adjust the tracking value to space the letters)

    2. Right click the text layer and choose blending options.

    From the menu choose stroke and adjust the settings to suit

    3. Repeat for the second third and fourth strokes (by clicking on the + sign you can add extra strokes)

    Job done - you can go back and adjust the strokes if needed

    Do you actually mean the font or the effect (the multiple lines)?

    Edit: I suspect one capital letter may not be sufficient to identify a font unequivocally.

    Thank you for replying.

    Does this image help?

    I want the 22 number to be the exact same as this with the outlines and same font. Infact the font doesnt really matter it looks to be standard enough. i just want it to be have the same outline and colour sequence

    Thank you so much!!

    That has worked for me!

    I will try different fonts now!

    I really appreciate all your help!


    A nice guide there from Dave.  With so much going on here, I am not sure if anyone has mentioned saving a Layer Style?

    You have gone to the trouble of creating a style you like, so if you think you might like to have available to use again...

    Select your Type layer with the nice layer styles

    Open the Styles panel, and click on the New Style icon (highlighted with green at the bottom)

    This will open the new style dialog window (at the top), so give it a name, and ...

    ...there's your new style ready for use again.

    Any layer content (that leaves room) can be instantly transformed by clicking on your new style icon.

    Anything you create and like a lot, save it.  Years later instead of racking your brains trying to remember how you did that effect, there it will be in your styles panel
