Adobe CS Windows-I have an inner and outer glow applied to some text. When I merge layers or attempt to flatten the document the inner glow disappears. This has happened before on other files. Is it a program problem or am I doing something wrong?

Hi Lynn,

As far as I recall, some styles don’t retain all of their features when you flatten an image. I seem to remember that it says so in the help file somewhere, but I’m not a computer with Photoshop on it at the moment, so I can’t check it out.

Bye for now.
