I was remembering a different thread, I guess  :embarrassed:

How'd I miss that one, anyway?

I wonder if you can release the mask from the clipping textlines and fill them (making them vector for real)...I'll have to give it a try

And, yes, you can release the clipping textlines and fill them (you have to delete the image that was the fill before)

Had Adobe just done it right the first time you wouldn't have to go to all of that trouble. :laugh:

Quote from: jimking on August 05, 2010, 08:57:09 AMI believe you can create vector in photoshop but when you open and re-save the vector becomes raster. It's been awhile since crossing this bridge several years ago and forgot all the details, but that is my understanding.

Yes. Saving as a Photoshop EPS has a checkbox for "Include vector data" or something. But once you reopen the EPS it's all rasterized.

But here's the interesting part...it was saved out as a pdf and when you reopened it in Photoshop, it opened with layers and even the type layers intact...It just wouldn't save the type in the pdf as vector

Yeah, as long as you save as a Photoshop PDF you can re-open and edit...just like Illustrator except for the part of Photoshop creating faux vector type.

Anyone who uses PS for a layout app is a buffoon. No, I am NOT being sarcastic.
