How to keep the text in vector in Photoshop without rasterizing it or flattening the layers when exporting to PDF?

Question

After many tests in all kind of PDF presets, I couldn't figure out how to keep the text layers as vector and still have the quality of InDesign without using it. Everything I tried was rasterizing the texts. It seems like PDF/x rasterizes the layers too.The layout needs to be created in Adobe Photoshop unfortunately, and all I have on hand is a Photoshop file with layers.Is it possible to keep the vector quality of Photoshop text layers and objects when exporting to PDF, and get the quality of an Illustrator or InDesign file easily?

Hi, If you Save As a .eps file it'll ask you if you want to link vector info within the file, then you can Open with pdf and save as pdf in adobe acrobat. When I tried this I opened the pdf in Illustrator and it retained the info. Maybe this will help ? otherwise If you had Illustrator I would say do it there. Online there's lots of free Illustrator ish apps that could help as well.
