Use a layer style to create hollow outline outline text in Photoshop

Hey folks,

Just wanted to share a quick Photoshop technique today: creating text that’s just an outline, no fill. It’s a straightforward technique but really adds a unique touch to your designs.

In this tutorial I guide you through the process. It’s as simple as adding a stroke to your text to outline it, then bringing the fill opacity down to zero. That’s when you get this cool hollow effect on your letters.

You play around with the stroke settings, like its size and color, to fit whatever you’re working on. I chose a soft color for a more subtle look, but honestly, you can pick any color that matches your style.

The key part is reducing the fill opacity. It’s what makes the letters hollow while keeping the outline intact.

If you’re looking for something new to try on your next project, or just want to add a new technique to your Photoshop skills, this one’s pretty neat. Plus, it’s easy to save your work so you can come back to it or use it in different projects.

Definitely a fun way to make your text stand out. Give it a shot and let me know how it goes!

Take care,
Mr.Camera
