Get Layer Text

Description

“Get Layer Text” is a text layer utility script using the JSON Action Manager scripting library, and more specifically its module jamText.

This stand-alone script written in JavaScript is used to get the text of the current text layer in JSON simplified format; it is basically a user interface “wrapper” around the function jamText.getLayerText: it opens a dialog box with a text field containing a layer text JSON object in Layer Text Object Simplified Format.

You can copy or save the generated JSON text and use it in your own scripts by passing it to the function jamText.setLayerText to set the text of the current text layer.

Please refer to the Layer Text Quick Tutorial for more details.

Requirements

This script can be used in Adobe Photoshop CS3 or later. It has been successfully tested in CS4 on Mac OS X, but should be platform agnostic.
