In Adobe Photoshop, how do you create columns with the text?

In Adobe Photoshop, how do you create columns with the text?


I need it for my project desperately. Help would be great!


10 points!In Adobe Photoshop, how do you create columns with the text?
Click and hold on the Text Tool in the Tool Palette. Hiding underneath the regular Horizontal Type tool is the Vertical Type too.





If you just want to turn a regular text block on its side, select the text layer, and transform it (ctrl+T). Hold down the shift key, grab a corner handle and rotate it into position (or Edit pulldown menu --%26gt; Transform --%26gt; Rotate --%26gt; 90 degrees whichever way you want).





Oh, or are you just asking about making a tall skinny block of type where the text wraps?? You can create Paragraph text. Select the text layer (it's okay to have already typed it in). Go to Layer pulldown menu --%26gt; Type --%26gt; Convert to Paragraph Text. You will then see handles on your type (you'll need to double click the layer to see them) which you can move around and your text will flow inside it.





I sure hope one of those is what you were looking for!
