How to make an editable watermark .psd

[Anila]

Hi everyone,

I wanted to ask you a question. I am working on some watermarks and I noticed that when I save psd, the words in the watermark can't be edited.

It creates a pixel layer for the word, all by itself, but it can only be deleted, but not edited.

I tried to download a free psd watermark online to see if I can edit them and I do, while mine, if I save from affinity in .psd file, they can't be edited.

Is there something I am missing? How can I save the file I make in order to have a editable watermark and text?

I tried both affinity photo and designer and the issue is just the same.

Many thanks!

Hi @Anila it's the way our PSD export works, any text layers are rasterised during the export process. This is something that will hopefully be improved in future updates/versions.

omg really? I hope it gets improved soon because it's a very useful thing for every file that includes text!
