Rasterizing layers

You cannot use the painting tools or filters on layers that contain vector data (such as type layers, shape layers, and vector masks) and generated data (such as fill layers). However, you can rasterize these layers to convert their contents into a flat, raster image.

To rasterize a single layer:

1. Select the layer you want to rasterize.
2. Choose Layer > Rasterize, and choose an option from the submenu.

To rasterize multiple layers:

Do one of the following:

• Link the layers you want to rasterize, and choose Layer > Rasterize > Linked Layers. (See Linking layers.)
• To rasterize all layers that contain vector and generated data, choose Layer > Rasterize > All Layers.
