If you want to make transparent text in Photoshop, you can choose between a variety of easy and beginner-friendly options outlined in this video! The first is knockout text which cuts a hole into a shape in the outline of your text. This is great for custom graphics or title cards! The second if outline text, when you don't want to have any fill color in your text and want transparency instead. By converting your text layer into a shape, you can easily add a transparent fill color while also controlling the outline width and color! Lastly, the bevel and emboss method allows you to create glass-like transparent text that is only revealed by the highlight and shadow of the out bevel. This is perfect for watermarking photos, or just having a more subtle transparent text effect in Photoshop!

Unfortunately some of the things he's said here are absolutely flawed. 🤦🏾‍♂️ The Outline Stroke on Transparent Text... He's wrong when he says you have to turn the text into a shape first. You don't have to do that. All you have to do is go to the blending options and apply a stroke, then exit the blending options, go to Fill, and make the fill to zero. That way, the text remains editable.

Hi Brendan, If you go into the layer effects of your text layer and add a coloured stroke to your text and then return to your layer and reduce the fill slider to '0' you will get transparent text. The fill slider reduces the opacity of the layer while keeping the layer effects at full strength. In my opinion this is the easiest way to create transparent text. No need to convert text to a shape.

@BrendanWilliamsTutorials 2 жыл бұрын

Yes, you are correct and I definitely should have included that for the outline text option since you can still edit the text. Thanks for your feedback!

That 2nd effect can be done with Blending Options. Drop the opacity to 0 and give it a Stroke.

If your image is a say, a paint stroke that is going on a shirt, but you want to 'cut' the words thru the paint stroke in order to allow the shirt color to come thru and be the letters how do you do it?

Hi Brendan, unfortunately the first two methods will not allow to change the text easily. Could you please find a solution for that type of request??? TXS Dirk

@BrendanWilliamsTutorials 2 жыл бұрын

For knockout text, I am not sure of a method that allows you to edit the text since it is on a layer mask, separate from the text. But for the outline text, you can double click on the text layer and click "stroke" and set the stroke to "outside" and choose your color. Then go to "Blending Options" and in the advanced blending tab, move the fill slider to 0 to make the fill color of your text transparent, without converting it to a shape! Hope that helps :) Should have mentioned that as an alternate option when I was recording... lol

having no transparent colour option or straight forward outline checkbox is hilairous

You have the option to pause the video after the steps, slow down the video, or go somewhere else. I had my video sped up and I still kept up. Not his fault you're slow
