Help with scanned photo in layers

I am using Elements 9 trial, and my questions involves scanned photos.  I understand that the layers do not show in a scanned photo, and so I would like to know if there is a way to save the photos in Elements 9 so the layers can show.  What I want to do is remove all text from a magazine cover, leaving the person on the photo so I'll end up with a portrait with only the person's likeness.  Can this be done?  I am new to all this and would really appreciate some help.  Thanks ...

You can try the following lines in PSE6:
- After you have splitted all the scanned images, save all the images
- now go to each image and select the part of the image that you want in the final image. You can use any of the available selection tools
- now after selecting the part of the image, right click on the selected part and choose Layer via copy option
- as soon as you will select this option a new layer would be created in the layers pane that you can find at right hand side. If the layers pane is not visible, you can select Window->Layers option to make it visible.
- The new layer created in the layers pane would contain only that part of the image that you have selected.
- Now select that layer in the layers pane and right click on it
- You will get an option Duplicate Layer. Select it.
- You will see a new dialog box.
- Now give it a new name.
- In the drop down, select the blank document that you have just created above. By default its name should be Untitled-1
- Now Press OK button.
- Go to the blank document that you have created. There you will find the new layer pasted that you have selected in the scanned image.
- You can also adjust the size and the position of the new layer of image on the blank document (which is not blank at this point of time)
- Now repeat the above steps for all the scanned images.
Repost if you get any problems in doing above steps.
Thanks.

  • Need help with scanned photo....

    I scanned a photo into iphoto'11 using a new fujitsu scansnap s1500m.  Once I saved it, I changed the extension from .pdf to .jpg by going to "get info."  I then imported it into iphoto and I can see the thumbnail -- but when I click on the thumbnail I get a black screen.  I am using a MacBook Pro OS X 10.6.8 if that helps.  Can anyone tell me what did i do wrong?
    I am a senior who is not very tech savvy, but I try.  I have scanned a total of two photos, but can only launch one of them in iphoto.  I have compared the three using "get info" but can't see a difference.  An old lady needs help......

    You should also be able to set the scan type to JPG in, I'm assuming, there's an online preference window for your scanner.  It may be set to PDF as a default in the scanner.
    Here's a Link to a Windows Help page on setting preferences:

    You should be able to do similar things with your Mac.

    Freezing, or crashing?
    ID on the Mac can produce reports that may (or may not) prove helpful in diagnosing the problem. I suspect this is something not directly related to InDesign, and maybe not to any of the Adobe apps directly since you seem to be having a problem in more than one. That often inidcates a problem at the system level.
    Nevertheless, it won't hurt to try to gather the reports. You'll find driections for how to generate them, and to post them on Pastebin.com (then put a link to them here) so we can see what's going on at Adobe Forums: InDesign CS5.5 Not Responding

  • Can anyone help with uploading photos from iPad to Facebook.  Thanks

    Can anyone help with uploading photos fom iPad to Facebook?  Thanks

    What app are you to trying to use ? You can't upload photos to Facebook via Safari, but a number of the Facebook apps support it e.g. the 'official' app : http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/facebook/id284882215?mt=8 (thought it's optimised for the iPhone/iPod Touch it does support uploading photos), Friendly For Facebook (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/friendly-for-facebook/id400169658?mt=8)

  • Need help with scanning old photos

    Hi,
    I appologize in advance for the long post, but here it goes - I am an ultra newby and have been trying to figure out the best method of scanning and retouching. I have a new Epson V330 photo scanner and currently scan in 24-bit color at 300 dpi for most photos and 600 dpi for small photos like wallet size. I leave all the adjustment options OFF (unsharp mask, descreening, color resoration, backlight correction, dust removal) as I think that stuff should be done in photoshop. I save the scans as tiff files. In the tiff options box there is a checkbox that says "embed icc profile" although I don't know what profile it is embeding.
    I have recently been reading about color space and color profiles. I dug around in the setup for the epson and see that I could be scanning in 48 bid color (do I need that) and that there is a color configuration.  Currently it is set to "color control, continuous auto exposure. Display gamma: 2.2. Auto exposure level (right in the middle of low and high). The other options are ICM and no color correction.
    If I click on ICM, there is a source dropdown list, but the only thing there is "Epson standard". Then there is a target dropdown and the choices sRGB, Monitor RGB, Adobe RGB, Apple RGB, and ColorMatch RGB. There is then a check box that says "display preview using monitor compensation".
    If you are still reading this, what settings do you recommend I use?
    Thank you for your time.
    Brian

    If you are getting satisfactory results you may not need to change.
    For color, Epson will scan using its source profile.  Question is if and where best to make a conversion to other profiles such as AdobeRGB.  If you will be processing all your scans through Photoshop you can let Photoshop make this conversion to your Photoshop color working space when opening scan image file.
    If you won't be making tonal adjustments in Photoshop, probably 24-bit color will be sufficient (if you're satisfied with image appearance).  Likewise for auto exposure.  But if you find that you want to adjust the black or white points or tone curve then 48-bit may give you better results.  You can change mode to 24-bit RGB in Photoshop after you've made your adjustments.
    There are some functions that may better be performed closest to scanning by scan software.  Descreening is one, IME; although if you're scanning photo prints or transparencies you are not likely to need descreening.  You'll want to experiment with dust removal and sharpening to see what works best for your images.  Dust removal in particular you may find better-done by the scan software, particularly for transparencies (select Digital ICE).
    Another step to try: open your scan tiff in camera raw and apply nondestructive adjustments there before opening in Photoshop -- particularly sharpening and noise reduction.

  • Help with placing photos in Lightroom 4.2

    I am making my first book in the Book module and I'm not finding it as flexible as I expected. I'm slowly figuring out some answers to the questions that have arisen, but I'd like some help with the following.
    1. Can I add a small photo to the last page above the logo?
    2. Can I put a border around a photo on the front, like a frame? Or do I have to prepare a jpg in Photoshop Elements with the frame and my photo?
    3. Can I move or resize those yellow-bordered placement boxes, or make a custom layout if none of the layouts are exactly what I want?
    Answeres to these questions will take a lot of frustration out of the process. :-)
    Thanks,
    Nancy

  • Need help with show/hide and layers moving

    I'm more of a designer, so I don't know code or CSS well at
    all. I'm doing an online portfolio for a class and need help with
    layers not staying in place in different browsers. The portfolio is
    created with a table, but I wanted to use the show/hide function
    for thumbnails of work. Are layers the only way you can use this
    function? I read layers don't work well with tables, so how else
    can I make it so when you mouse over a thumbnail, the larger image
    appears in another cell?

    > I don't know code or CSS well at all.
    That's unfortunate.
    > layers not staying in place in different browsers.
    Layers don't move. But the rest of your page does.
    Before you get too wrapped up in layers, though, please read
    this -
    http://www.great-web-sights.com/g_layerlaws.asp
    They are not good when be used as a primary layout method.
    > I read layers don't work well with tables
    They work fine with tables - but you have to understand both
    tables and
    layers to use them.
    Why not show us your page, so we can see what you are
    struggling with?

  • HT201317 Help with deleting photos.

    Hello, I am slightly frustrated with photo management on my iPhone and iPad. I seem to end with a photo appearing in my Camera Roll, an album, and in photo stream on both devices. Is there a simple and quick way to delete it from all locations, as at the moment I have to delete it from each individually.

    No, unfortunately you cannot delete a specific picture on all locations with just one click. It is like you described, you have to do it manually one by one.

  • Help with syncing photos please

    Ok, so iam having problems with syncing a folder from my computer to my iphone. Once done syncing the photos it makes 2 albums on my iphone, one with the name of my folder and one with the name "Photo Library" they both have the same photos on them, how do I get the unwanted one off?

    This is normal and cannot be changed.
    All photos transferred to the iPhone are stored and will be available in the iPhone's Photo Library.
    If you transfer 3 folder names or albums that contain photos say 10 photos each, it will be as follows:
    Photo Library (30)
    Photo Album 1 (10)
    Photo Album 2 (10)
    Photo Album 3 (10)
    With the Photo Album names to be whatever you name the folders which contain the photos transferred to your iPhone.
    This way you can view all photos available in all albums by selecting the iPhone's Photo Library or view the photos available in a particular folder or album only by selecting the album.
    Photos in the folders or albums are not duplicated. They include a pointer to the original photo contained in the iPhone's Photo Library.

  • Need help with uploading photos from PSE 12 to Revel

    When I first logged into Revel from my new Photoshop 12 I selected the option to have me select which photos would be uploaded to Revel.  That turned out to be a huge mistake.  All I want to do is upload my current catelogue with the albums intact to Revel for Cloud protection.  I have been working for two days to work around this and have had numerous problems.  I can't get my albums to get uploaded without creating a new album in revel and then downloading from there.  However, it appears that some albums have been authotmatically uploaded and I have thousands of pictures scattered, since most of them were scanned at different times and then organized into albums over the course of the past year.  Can anyone help me with this.  I was told that buying Adobe Photoshop 12 should make it very easy to put my photos in a cloud with the albums intact.  PLEASE help.

    Well, everything that you have bought with her Apple ID prior to getting your own Apple ID is forever hers. Apple will not transfer content from one ID to another. But in the case of the Mac, contact iTunes Customer Service and request that they send your issue to the Account Security Team and ask that the Mac be released form your mother's account so you may register it with your account. Then you can accept the iLife apps into your account for any future updates.
