Convert point or paragraph text

Note: When you convert paragraph text to point text, all characters outside the bounding box are deleted. To avoid losing text, resize the bounding box so that all text is visible before conversion.
  1. Using the Selection tool , select the text layer.
    Note: You can’t convert the text layer if it’s in text-editing mode.
  2. Using a type tool, right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac OS) anywhere in the Composition panel, and choose Convert To Paragraph Text or Convert To Point Text.

    When you convert from paragraph text to point text, a carriage return is added at the end of each line of text, except the last line.

    To display the bounding box of paragraph text and automatically select a type tool, double-click the text layer in the Timeline panel.
