Add your favourite graphic work or picture inside your text.

Step 1

Open up your image or graphic you want to display inside your text. I used the one I made below:

Step 1 diagram

Step 2

Now go to [Edit > Define Pattern] and name it if you want or just leave it as the default name.

Step 3

Now make a new document, select the type tool and type out your text. I used the word zymic using a pixel font which I later enlarged.

Now open up the blending options.

Then go to "Pattern Overlay" and choose your pattern. Then press OK and return back to the document. Your text should now have your image or graphic inside it! I added a stroke and a glow to my text to make it stand out.

Step 4

My result is below (I added a outer glow etc).

I could have done that in 1 second with the magic wand. Still, it's nice to show other ways to do things...
