Converting text layers

You can convert a text layer into a standard layer so that you can apply effects such as gradations, blends, or surface textures. For example, you can also apply surface control textures to give the text a three-dimensional appearance. For more information, see Adjusting light properties.

You can also convert a text layer to shapes, which allows you to move and edit individual characters. For more information, see Shapes.
