1.
In Editor, open the file with your patterned paper. Also open
the layout where you want to move the cut out letters when you’re
finished.
2. Select the Horizontal
Type Mask Tool by right-clicking on the Type Tool icon in the
Tool Box.
3. Next, select
a font and size from the drop down menu.
4. Click on the
patterned paper and start typing.
5. To reposition
the letters, move your mouse until you see crosshairs. At this
point, you can click and drag your title to a different spot on
your pattern. Once you release your mouse button, your title will
be selected. If you don’t need to reposition the letters,
just click somewhere on the patterned paper.
6. Now, hit Ctrl
+ C to copy the title. Click on the layout window, and type Ctrl
+ V to paste onto your layout. Simply click on the title layer
and drag to position it.
Isn’t this easier than cutting out letters with scissors?
