Yup, hold down shift to apply to all layers is very usefull, especially when working on web design work with lots of text layers!

Thanks for this! I tried it for Photoshop CS5 and to make it work, I have to select on all the layers which are linked, then with all of them selected, edit the font size and then hit enter. If I just simply link them without selecting the layers, font changes I do to one layer doesn’t translate to the other layers. Fyi :0)

Carol – you are not saving your path, so when you start a new one it deletes ‘work path’ (shown in italic). You want to drag the ‘work path’ down onto the new path icon aat the bottom of the palette, this is the quickest way to save it.

Ahh I have just discovered that a workpath is only temporary and I have to make a new path for each selection. I have a lot of paths now!

I have multiple layers of type which I am exporting to illustrator to do an outline for etching. I need the type to be smooth edged and not pixelated. I could use the Layer>type>create workpath a single block of text, but for these layers I only seem to be able to create a path for one layer. When I do another one it removes the previous one I created.

Any ideas very welcome, thank you.
