Which Are Type Tools in Photoshop CC?

Last updated on September 24, 2022 @ 3:59 pm

Type tools in Photoshop CC include the Horizontal Type Tool, Vertical Type Tool, Horizontal Type Mask Tool, and Vertical Type Mask Tool. Each of these tools has its own specific purpose and can be used to create different types of text effects.

The Horizontal Type Tool is used to create horizontal text. This tool can be used to create simple text effects, like adding a drop shadow or changing the color of the text. It can also be used to create more complex text effects, like creating a 3D effect or adding a gradient to the text.

PRO TIP: Type tools in Photoshop CC can be used to create and edit text layers in your Photoshop document. However, if you are not familiar with using these tools, it is easy to accidentally delete or change existing text layers. If you are not careful, you may also create new text layers that overlap and interfere with existing text layers.

The Vertical Type Tool is used to create vertical text.

The Horizontal Type Mask Tool is used to create a mask around horizontal text. This tool is useful for isolating certain areas of the image so that you can work on them without affecting other parts of the image. For example, you could use this tool to isolate the letters in a word so that you could change their color without affecting the rest of the image.

The Vertical Type Mask Tool is used to create a mask around vertical text.
