How can I edit text tabs in Photoshop...?

how can I edit text tabs in Photoshop like in Illustrator that I can choose to view the tab rulers and edit the alignment on the tabs?
is it possible? otherwise I can't understand why I can use the tabs at all...
thanks!

No, tab-formatted text is not editable in the manner you desire. As for your question - tab is just a character like any other. You are simply taking a given kind of implementation for granted, nothing more, but that must not necessarily be the case for all programs. An evil programmer just could assign the tab key to forward delete or any other fancy function just as he could make your space key draw funky symbols from a different Unicode range, if you get my meaning... so simply take it the way it is. If editable formatting is high on your wishlist:

  • How can I edit a droplet for Photoshop 6?

    How can I edit a droplet for Photoshop 6? The company hired somebody to set up the droplet years ago, and nobody remembers how it was set up. The computer that was used to save the files has crashed, and I need to change the path the droplet uses for saving the files. I tried to open the droplet with Image Ready, but it said it was not an image ready droplet and could not be opened. The computer running Photoshop is using Windows XP.

    It seems that the script on the ps scripts page is to old to work in cs5.
    This is a lnk to xtools 1.8 which has the latest version of the droplet decompiler:
    http://sourceforge.net/projects/ps-scripts/files/xtools/
    Just unzip, find the Apps folder and look for the DropletDecompiler.jsx.
    Then put your droplet on the desktop, Use File>Scripts>Browse in cs5 to navigate to the DropletDecompiler.jsx.
    Here's an example using the Aged Photo.exe droplet from the ps 6 samples folder:
    here's the resulting action opened in cs5:

  • How can I edit texts in ipad letter by letter.

    I frequently write in Spanish and English, i have to change the keyboard from one language to the other but when i forget i get unexpected results. I decided to disable the automatic spelling correction. But there is still a problem. I sometimes miss a single letter to correct in a word but ipad forces me to rewrite the whole word again, or to use the delete key to delete all the letters until i get to the one I need to correct. How can I edit letters from inside a word without the need to rewrite the whole word. Does ipad support this?
    Thanks for your comments.

    Yes.  You can tap near the letter you want to edit to place the cursor near by.
    For more accurate selection if you hold down where you want to edit a small magnifiying glass should appear. You can use that to move the insertion pointer to wherever you want to edit.
    Page 24 of the User Guide describes this feature.

  • How can i edit text on a pdf document on acrobat i professional

    can anyone please help me, I've got acrobat 8 professional and i'm trying to edit text, can i do it and how can I do it?

    You wrote: I have tried creating the background image as a pdf . . .
    The whole thing is already a PDF.
    What application are you using to try and make changes?
    Are you now using InDesign to recreate the gift voucher?
    Or are you opening the Photoshop PDF and trying to resize the live text layers?
    There shouldn't be any issue with making 120 pt text. I just created a 250 pt text layer in PS as a test.
    Have you enlarged the text box? If the text box isn't that big. making the text larger make cause it to overset and no longer be visible.
    Grab the corner of the text box and drag it to enlarge it.
    If things aren't working correctly, it would be faster to recreate the gift voucher in InDesign.
    You mentioned having the background image, just add the text are you are ready to print.
    After rereading your last post it is unclear who will be adding the text for the money amount.
    Are you adding this yourself before printing, or are you hoping to give a PDF to the client where he can add/change the money amount?
    Things like this need to be mentioned upfront.

  • How can I edit text labels in a numeric display?

    I have this numeric display, type U16, that displays specific messages, for example 'PASS' when the input is 1. I need to add another message.
    I added a placeholder, for input = 3 (verified by the digital display) for the new message by rightclicking/'Add After' but I'm not able to add the new message. I can't edit the text (can't select it) for the existing messages either so I know I'm on the wrong track.
    The G programming reference for LV 5.1 (page 9-17) says to use the labeling tool so I tried the 'Edit Text' tool on the tools palette. Is there another labeling tool? Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Jeff,
    It sounds to me as if your U16 ring control is, or is linked to, a typdef (Type Definition), which LabVIEW programmers can employ to impose sharp constraints on the way a control looks or behaves. This would explain why you can't edit the text items, or add one. The bit about adding an item for '3' is confusing, but maybe it has to do with the ring being set to allow undefined values.
    I can't recall how to manage these things under LabVIEW 5.1, but in 7.x, I would right-click on the control and see if "Open Type Def" was one of my options; if so, this diagnosis is correct, and you can make your changes only be editing the actual type def. The changes would then automatically be applied to any other control or indicator that is linked to the same type def, which is a very powerful programming technique.
    Your best move might be to read up on Type Definitions in your LabVIEW User Manual, or in Application Note 159, and then proceed.
    Hope this helps,
    John

  • How can I edit text in a copy of a document on my home PC?

    A document created in Acrobat XI Std is on the server in the office.  I had the document emailed to me which I downloaded to my home PC.
    I cannot edit existing text or images in the downloaded document.
    I can do the following to the downloaded document:
       Add new text boxes and images
       Delete existing text boxes and images
       Move existing text boxes and images within the document
       Copy existing text boxes and images from the downloaded document and paste them into another document
       Edit new text boxes and images that I've added to the document.
    Both the office server and my home PC are running Windows and Acrobat XI Standard.
    I've checked security and protection.  These do not apear to be a problem but I'm not absolutely certain.
    Why am I unable to edit existing text and images in the downloaded document?
    How can i remedy this problem?
    PS.  The reverse is true also.  The office cannot edit text and images that I've added to the document.

    Hi Bill@VT,
    Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner.  I caught the flu.
    I just went to work for this company.  The company has been creating and maintaining these documents with Acrobat for may years.
    I live 75 miles from the office.  The company has agreed that I can work from home.
    The first attempt at this was emailing PDF documents back and forth.
    I may need access to the company network via a VPN.
    I have a lot experience doing these types of documents with MS Word and MS PowerPoint.  Then creating a PDF document from the docx and pptx.. 
    The company wants to continue creating and maintaining the documents in Acrobat because everyone in the office knows how to do it.
    So at this time I'll try to use  Acrobat.
    Thank you for all your help.
    Frank

  • How can I edit text without alignment problems ?

    One day after I wrote a paragraph of text and saved it  I am unable to  edit it.
    When I place my "T" text cursor in the appropriate or designated line of text there seems to be
    a misalignment and consequently the left and right arrows are unreponsive.
    Also when I highlight the line of text I want to work with as soon as I place the text icon
    over that line and click the software creates another layer instead of remaining in the layer
    I've specified.
    Help.

    I'm unable to make the text in a given layer active.ie when I drag the "T" icon to the desires position and click the txt does not respond/is not active as it should be,instead of seeing all the text with underlines it remains in active. Not alterable. If I type a letter it doesn't align.
    I also noticed that the layer in question in the layers palette is represented by a checkered icon rather than by a "T" on a white backround.../
    the way text normally is.
    HOW CAN I CHANGE THE CHECKERED LAYER BACK TO A TEXT LAYER AND THUS GAIN ACCESS AGAIN ?
    Thank you.

  • How can I edit text in a tagged PDF?

    I have created an accessible test form in Acrobat Pro X.  Now that it has all been tagged and reading order touched up, the client wants to change the text.  Is there any way to edit text at this point or do I have to create an entirely new tagged accessible form (very time consuming)?
    I have tried:
    TouchUp Reading order - when I select the block of text, nothing lights up on the TouchUp window
    Form > Edit Document Text - I can place a cursor but it won't do anything.
    Thank you for any help!

    For Tagged PDF the replace page approach ought to be avoided.
    The behavior seen when replace page is used for an existing page having annotations is not present.
    Insert of a tagged PDF into another PDF can be a problem as well. The "incoming" structure tree is always placed at the end of the existing structure tree.
    Manually remediating this can become nasty very quickly.
    Using the Touchup / Edit text tool on a 'good' tagged PDF ought to be avoided as well.
    Be well...

  • How can I edit text in pdf?

    newbie here to editing text in a pdf. I make a document in InDesign and exported it into a pdf. I tried to change the text in the pdf, using the touch up tool but it won't let me change it. What am I doing wrong?

    That depends on what type of edits you want to do.
    You can use the touchup text tool to make some changes to text (this assumes that the person on the other end has the exact same fonts installed). The touchup object tool can be used to remove images...Have them look under the "tools" menu to see what is available. Different ones are there depending on their version of Acrobat.
    Why are you having them make edits (just asking to see if there is a better way of doing this because really, you don't want to go down this road)?
    Do they really need to make edits or are they just marking up changes they want done in the document so you can do them? If that's the case, have them use the comment tools.
    There are way too many things to go wrong when you start editing PDF's. They really should be considered simply a digital piece of paper and nothing more.

  • How can I edit a photo in Photoshop Elements and have the edit appear in Windows 7, My Pictures?

    In Windows XP Pro, any edit I made to a photo in Photoshop Elements 10 appeared automatically in that photo in My Pictures.   This does not happen in my new Windows 7 computer.  Can I change that and have the edit from PE10 appear in My Documents/My Pictures?

    When you finish editing choose:
    File >> Save As
    Then choose a file name and folder and save.

  • In Elements 9 How can I edit text?

    I've created a book cover with several layers. I need to insert a space in the title, but when I click on that text the edit box layer on the right jumps out of that text box into another layer. IS THERE A WAY TO GET TO THAT TEXT ANYMORE?!
    Many many thanks!

    Thank you for your amswer. Maybe I have a bad version of Photoshop Elements 9. I tried this OVER AND OVER. When I put the hand tool on the text I could move it, but then when I tried to insert a space it WOULD NOT WORK. Wouldn't work in ANY tool. And putting it back on the text tool made it jump to a different layer. It just WOULD NOT WORK. So after over an hour of futile trying I tried to create another cover.
    I have to leave the title like it is. Couldn't alter it.  Didn't want to try. It's too complicated the way I did it to do it over. (I created a fading smoke background for the center word and that word's text is in white. I'll just leave it.) Don't know WHY in the WORLD it would be so difficult to insert a space between the layer with the 2 black words in before and after that middle word! But the only way I could get to that later was in the hand or move tool. I could move the text, but if I tried to insert a space it jumped to another layer for some strange reason.
    So I opened another page to create a 2nd cover. Still couldn't insert a space in the title. Have to leave it I guess. But when on this 2nd try I tried pasting the text on the back cover IT WAS SOOO FRUSTRATING!  All that would paste was empty lines! I made sure the text font was black and the underscore off, but NO TEXT WOULD Paste! I even opened a new layer! Everything seemed to be working against me.

    No, sorry, I don't understand what you are talking about. Exactly what happens? You do not need to buy a different version of Elements, just explain EXACTLY what the problem is. And please turn off your caps lock key.
    Adobe is not preventing you from using PSE 10. Thousands of people are using it, so we need to figure out exactly where the problem lies. Please explain step by step what you are doing and what happens.

    How can I edit photos in iPhoto in Photoshop Elements?  I select PE in iPhoto preferences but they stay in iPhoto for editing.

    Here's something you can try with a copy of your current library.
    1 - go to iPhoto's Events preference pane and set the auto split option to 1 day per even.
    2 - go the the Events mode, select all Events.
    3 - go to the Events menu  and and select Autosplit Selected Events.
    which will give you an event for each day.
    4 - again select all events (although it might be better do to fewer at a time) and export them to your desired destination via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export  menu option with the following settings:
    The workflow above will produce a folder for each days photos with the date as the folder's title.
