ask the experts

How do you keep text confined within a certain area in an image.  For example I want to type a short paragraph and do not want it to go beyond say an area of 4 x 6 inches.   Thanks for any help.

This should be easy to do.  Select the Type Tool, move the cursor to the area you want to start the text, and begin typing.  The text will be on it's own layer so you can press the return key to start a new line as well as make typography and point size options, as appropriate.  When done, use the Move Tool to finesse the position of the text block.  As long as you save the file as a PSD, you can return to the text layer(s) to make changes.  Have fun.
