Now let's say you want another type layer. The T icon on the layer indicates that this is a special re-editable type layer. You'll see that Photoshop has created a new layer for you and has even named it for you. Click in the image and drag the text where you want it.
If the text isn't where you want it, then go to the Tools panel and select the Move tool. One way to do that is to go up to the Options bar and click the big Checkmark there. After you enter or edit text you always have to accept it. I'm going to type the name of a fictional tailor business. Then click in the image and start typing. If you want to type uppercase letters, as I do, press the Caps lock key on your keyboard. To select white here go to the large field on the left and click on white and then click OK. That opens the Color Picker, which we covered in an earlier tutorial in this series. To set the font color go up to the Options bar and click the Font Color field. Let's use white for the text we're going to enter. Here you can type in a font size if you know it or you can click this arrow and choose a font size from the drop-down menu. So just try again with a larger font size. If you ever enter type and you can't see it, that's probably why. By the way: The default size is very small on a large image like this. This menu shows you the font size in points by default. If you don't have this font, choose a font of your own. And Photoshop shows you all available styles of that font. Or if you know the font that you want you can just type it here in the font field. The list shows you a preview of what each font looks like. Here you'll see a list of fonts that you can scroll through to choose one you like. Then go up to the Options bar and click on the Font menu.
You can select it here in the Tools panel. The tool you use most often to create text is the Horizontal Type tool. You can use this image from the downloadable practice files for this tutorial or an image of your own. In this video we'll practice adding text to an image. And it has smooth edges when printed, even if you make the text a lot bigger. Text on a type layer remains editable so that you can always change its content or its appearance.
