i was wondering if it's possible to put text in perspective. like writing on a flyer on a wall going to a vanishing point.

Re: slant text
There are two ways you could do this.
Text Layer
Rotate the layer in the 3D space to create the perspective.
Vector Text Outlines
When creating text over an existing vector layer, you have the option to turn off the "Create Text Layer" check box. The resulting text will be outlined vectorized text created on the layer you have selected. This text can't be edited, you can't change the words. It is "drawn" text. However, because the text is an out line with points you can use all of the point manipulation tools to bend and distort the text to match whatever perspective or shape you need it to fit. And of course you can still use the layer rotation tools to modify the text as you can with a Text Layer.
