Character styles | CC, CS6

A character style includes character formatting attributes, and can be applied to characters, a paragraph, even or range of paragraphs. You can

create Character styles and then apply them later.

Choose Window > Character Styles to open the Character Styles panel.

To apply a character style, select the text or text layer and click a character style.

Type styles are hierarchical: Manual overrides supersede any applied character styles, which in turn replace applied paragraph styles. This

hierarchical approach lets you combine the efficiency of styles with the flexibility to customize your designs.

For a video overview, see Paragraph and Character Styles in Photoshop CS6 by Julieanne Kost.

Create a character style

1. If you want to base a new style on the formatting of existing text, select that text.

2. Choose New Character Style from the Character Styles panel menu.

Note:To create a style without first selecting text, click the Create New Style icon

at the bottom of the Character Styles panel. To edit a style

without applying it to text, select an image layer, such as the Background.

Edit a character style

Double-click existing styles to edit them and update all associated text in the current document. Changing the style formatting updates all text to

which the style has been applied with the new format.
