Re: Imvisible text

From: "Des" <desotuatail@xxxxxxx>

I can't post the image as it is a PDF at the moment. What I wanted to
do was select 2 layers at a time and save as a jpg or gif. I created a
PDF file Create New layer and copy and paste the up.gif into it.
Repeate for bottom layer. Select text from toolbox (which creates a 3rd
layer and add text. duplicate text layer and move the text down and
right for the 4th layer.

The procedure you mention would put the bottom layer on the top after the
paste operation. Drag the images around in the layer palette to get them in
order. BTW- you probably used a psd, not a pdf.

Another possibility would be to have two completely separate files - copy
and paste your "over" layers to a new image, and save that for the web
without reference to the original image.

You may find it is less work to have just two image layers - background and
text - and add an effects layers over the text layer. Outer glow is a
commonly used one. Then you activate the effects layer for your "over"
image before saving for web. This is simpler because you just activate one
layer to get your over image, and your text only needs to be changed in one
place.
