Querying text objects

[_Dan_Clarke_]

Hi. In the Photoshop SDK, is it possible to iterate through each character of a "text object" and query for it's absolute position in the image file? Also, is it possible to extract the font information, ie. font name, point size, etc.

I've never used the SDK before. I've scanned through the documentation PDF, but I can't see anything that would do this. I'm probably just being blind though! :)

Cheers for any info,
Dan.

See the automation plug-in type and the listener and getter examples. The getter example will show you how to retrieve information about all things in photoshop. See classDocument. The listener will show you how to create things.
