I have scanned one document. Then I added some text in that. I want to give the same effect like scanned document to typed text. How I will do?
 
What effect is that? Can you upload an image? Scanner quality can vary considerably and it is hard to visualize what you mean. Of course, you could always make your text in a separate document, print it, then scan it, then add the scanned img to your 1st scan document.
 
That will depend on what the scanned text look like.

Is it blurred? Add use the blur tool or gaussian blur filter to add a tiny bit of blur to match. Or apply the unsharp filter...

Is it pixelated? after blurring make a layer copy and apply add noise and lower layer opacity.

Or if you have the patience to do it and it's not that much of a text added in.... search for words in the scanned text copy, copy to a layer and position in place to create sentences.

Same goes to create words... copy letters , position in place.

That's an exact look that you can get.
 
Hello,
could you, please, be more specific about the effect ? Is it less contrast, saturation, sharpness. If so then I would propose adjustment layer masked only for the text, which can be selected best selected probably by colour range or magnetic laso, since I expect new text to be sharp and one coloured.B
Best regards,
Peter
