Matric Text « Text « Photoshop Tutorials

Now, to get a matrix text, all sorts of signs and stuff, try to open a small image with notepad. You'll see that you'll get all that you will need for your matrix text. Copy a portion of the text in clipboard

1.) Open Photoshop 7.0 and create a new file. Go to File > New. Make it 300 X 150 pixels on a white background at 72 dpi then hit OK. 2.) Press the letter D on the keyboard to set the foreground color to black. Now go to Edit > Fill. Set to 100% opacity and hit OK. 3.) Select color for text. In the Tool palette, click on the foreground color to activate the Color Picker. Type in #00FF00 for selection and hit OK. 4.) Now select the Text tool and type something large to fill the space.

First of all you will need to download the Matrix font if you want the real matrix text effect. Otherwise, you can try this tutorial on any other text except it won't looks like real matrix text but you will have the matrix text effect anyway. Now it's your choice. Download the font from here

In this step we are going to mix some matrix passion into our work hi don forget our final target. Now take text tool again and type matrix word anywhere in background and change in the color to dark green. (Greenish effect that's the passion) And put this layer to back of white Matrix layer. Remember that white letter layer should be in front always rest of layers should be in back.

3. With the type tool selected click and drag over the entire document to create paragraph text. Next select vertical type by clicking the icon in the left corner of the tool options bar, then select top align. Then, open the Character and Paragraph Palettes. Choose a nice computer font. I used Courier New. Set the font size to 6 px. Choose a green color for the text. Now paste your text from the clipboard and accept it by clicking the checkmark in the tool options bar. Set the Tsume to 70%. This reduces the space around the characters by 70%, scrunching them together more like the matrix text.
