Smart Objects
A Smart Object is a container in which you can embed raster or vector image data, for instance, from another
Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator file. The embedded data retains all its original characteristics and remains fully
editable. You can create a Smart Object in Photoshop by converting one or more layers. In addition, you can paste or
place the data in Photoshop from Illustrator. Smart Objects give you the flexibility to scale, rotate, and warp layers
nondestructively in Photoshop.

Once a Smart Object stores source data inside a Photoshop document, you can then work on a composite of that data
in the image. When you want to modify the document (for example, scale it), Photoshop re-renders the composite
data based on the source data.

A Smart Object is really one file embedded in another. When you create one Smart Object from one or more selected
layers, you are really creating a new (child) file that is embedded in the original (parent) document.

Edit one layer to update multiple instances of the Smart Object.
You can apply transforms (however, some options are unavailable; for example Perspective and Distort), layer styles,
opacity, blend modes, and warps to Smart Objects. After you make a change, the layer is updated with the edited
content.
