How To Make Transparent Text In Photoshop - 3 Easy Methods!

If you want to make transparent text in Photoshop, you can choose between a variety of easy and beginner-friendly options outlined in this video! The first is knockout text which cuts a hole into a shape in the outline of your text. This is great for custom graphics or title cards! The second if outline text, when you don't want to have any fill color in your text and want transparency instead. By converting your text layer into a shape, you can easily add a transparent fill color while also controlling the outline width and color! Lastly, the bevel and emboss method allows you to create glass-like transparent text that is only revealed by the highlight and shadow of the out bevel. This is perfect for watermarking photos, or just having a more subtle transparent text effect in Photoshop!

Thank you for the calm tutorial. Your calm voice allows us to focus on the instruction. Too many tutorials shout at people these days. Can't watch those.

Hi Brendan, If you go into the layer effects of your text layer and add a coloured stroke to your text and then return to your layer and reduce the fill slider to '0' you will get transparent text.
The fill slider reduces the opacity of the layer while keeping the layer effects at full strength.
In my opinion this is the easiest way to create transparent text.
No need to convert text to a shape.
