This function and call might help you remove all layers of type 'TEXT'; (I've not tested it so be careful). removeLayers( ArtLayer.TEXT, app.activeDocument ); /** * @param {LayerKind} layerKind The kind/type of layer to filter * @param {Document} psDocument The Photoshop document */ function removeLayers( layerKind, psDocument ) { for ( var layer in psDocument.artLayers ) { if ( layer.kind === layerKind ) { layer.remove(); } } }
