Convert text from SVG to a text layer in PSD

Post by Stas.L »

Hi.
So I have an SVG file with some text.
Is there a way to make a PSD from it and put the text into an actual text layer?
I keep getting just a flattened image...

I doubt that you can do that with ImageMagick.

The only thing I can suggest is to separate the svg file into two separate svg files, the text and everything else. Then you should be able to write to PSD and have each as a separate layer.
