Photoshop help on signature, need help.....

I am trying to enhance a digital image of my signature.  I have no idea how to do this and I have to have it completed at 5PM tomorrow, CST in order that I can use my new application, EchoSign. 
Could a Photoshop manager/executive help me correct my digital image on a volunteer basis?  I really do not know where/who to ask for help and yet this is probably a simple fix to my signature.  I am new to all of this.  I can email you the .jpg image of my signature, which really needs to be converted to PDF as well.  And I will email further detail as well.
Thank you so much and have a great weekend.
Erik

Most signatures are black and white, so using the levels command can be used to help with the contrast.
Don't send anyone your signature.
If you check on youtube, you can search for photoshop levels command.

  • Photoshop Elements 7:  Newbie Needs Drop Shadow Help, Please

    Hello.
    I'm brand new to Adobe Photoshop Elements 7 and need help with the Drop Shadow feature, please.
    I've read the documentation, but it's not crystal clear to me, so maybe someone can guide me through it.
    I want to create text on a blank white canvas, and add a little bit of drop shadow to it. That's all I want to do--plain and simple.
    I can create the text, but I can't for the life of me find any drop shadow options.
    The documentation I'm using is the on-line, web-based help. I type in Drop Shadow in Search, and select Add Text to a Slide.
    The third step says, "In the Properties palette, set any of the following options" and then offers some options, including Drop Shadow and Drop Shadow Color.
    I'll be darned if I can locate the Properties palette. Obviously, I'm not well-versed with Photoshop, so if anyone can just steer me towards this feature, I'll take things from there.
    I know this is probably rock-bottom basic, but I'm stumped. Thank you!

    I need a lot more help with this than I thought.
    The problem I'm having is this: After creating the drop shadow effect, when I try to save the image as a transparent GIF, it quite simply.... looks horrible.
    Here is what I'm doing in detail:
    1. New/Blank File.
    2. Blank File is set to transparent. (Is this the right way to make a transparent GIF?)
    3. Creating text.
    4. Cropping text.
    5. Selecting drop shadow effect.
    Now, here's where I get confused. Do I just select File/Save As, or File/Save For Web?
    When I just use File/Save As, and select the GIF format, the drop shadow effect in the final file looks horrible when I embed the image into a web page. The text looks good, and the file is transparent, but the effect is ugly.
    When I try to use Save for Web, there is a Before/After screen. The Before side looks decent; the After screen looks horrible, too.
    So, now I don't know what to do. Can you or anyone guide me through this a bit further, please? Thank you! Jd

    Here is my problem: "To open "Adobe Photoshop CS5.1" you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 RUNTIME" after upgrading iMac to Yosemite, can anybody help?

    This answer may be somewhat late, but just in case other have the same issues, I went to site listed below and it solved the problem.  No need to reinstall CS5 product.  I hope this works for you.

  • Where is Photoshop Help?

    I can't remember the last time I used Photoshop Help because I don't use Photoshop much. Tried it today and nothing happens. My menu bar switches from Photoshop to Adobe Help Center but no Help window opens in Safari or anywhere else. Help Prefs are set to U.S. and English. I'm running CS2 and 10.4.11. Is Help not an online service? Am I supposed to be opening a pdf or inserting a DVD? Could anyone refresh my memory on how this is supposed to work? Thanks.

    I seem to remember that there was an update for Help for CS2.
    Check Adobe's Downloads to make sure that your CS2 programs are fully up to date.
    This may be what you need:

  • Photoshop cs5 and cs4, photoshop help...f1 why online

    Hi
    i have installed on w7 photoshop cs5 and photoshop cs4
    well when i try to read the manual (the help files) clicking F1 or under the menu Help-> Photoshop Help F1 ,photoshop cs5 and cs4 connect to the net
    for example cs4 opens a firefox page with the help guides
    cs5 opens a windows connected to internet
    for example i need to know some shortcut and i have to be connected to the net
    that's  weird
    is there a way to use the offline help? like cs3
    thanks

    You can download the help files as a PDF from the Photoshop Support pages.
    If you want to access the offline help files from F1, you have to disconnect PS from the Internet.
    If you want to turn off Community Help so that local Help opens by default, do the following:
       1. Open the Connections panel (Window > Extensions > Connections).
       2. From the Connections panel menu , select Offline Options.
       3. Select Keep Me Offline and click OK.
    Note: When you disable web services from the Connections panel, all other web services (such as Adobe Kuler and Adobe ConnectNow) are also disabled.

  • I have cs4 product, and want buy only adobe pro, illustrator and photoshop, help me please

    for me what i have to do.
    i have cs4, but only need adobe pro, illustrator and photoshop.
    help me
    for best choice
    thanks
    paulo pedro

    As far as acquiring news versions goes, the only benefit you will get from owning CS4 is that you can get a Creative Cloud subscription at a special rate for the first year.  https://creative.adobe.com/#plans
    Otherwise, since CS4 is not in the upgrade path for CS6 products, you can purchase CS6 applications at full price.

    Hi TheAllSeeingEyeuk2013,
    You can open task manager (ctrl+alt+delete) and go to processes tab.
    There you should look for the process named CreativeCloud.exe. Select this process and then click on 'End Process'.
    You can try to install the update now.
    Thanks

  • Access Photoshop "Help" without launching Adobe AIR?

    Is there a way to access Photoshop Help, from the Help menu, without installing or launching Adobe AIR?
    I'm not a mobile app developer, plus I've been seeing many security concerns and other problems related to Adobe AIR, like log files filling up hard drives.
    Also, I really don't like installing or opening apps on my computer that are not necessary and don't seem safe.
    Please help.

    Hi,
    AIR gets installed with your point product, but you will get AIR update notifications, at launch of an AIR app, if it's outdated.
    If you really don't want to use the AIR based Help app, then you can change a preference in said app. This will change the way Help is called from Ps and launch directly to the web based Help content in your default browser. You can also download the PDF help content if you don't have internet connection or would like to print out some content.
    To change the Help launch target, first launch the AIR based app via Help> Photoshop Help... (cmd+/) Then at the top menu bar, go to Adobe Help> Preferences (cmd+,). In this dialog (see screen shot below) go to the Accessibility Mode: section and select the 'Open Help in browser' radio button. Now close the dialog via Done button, and quit the application.
    You may need to relaunch Ps, I'm not sure.
    regards,
    steve

  • Would Photoshop help improve the look of my video? [was: New to this]

    Not sure if I already posted this but would photoshop help imporve the look of my video?
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n94-fqYPHWc

    I agree with Mylenium. Premiere Elements would be a better program for the post-production.
    As for shooting, I would use a background, as those wall plates/outlets really draw the eye. A nice piece of dark grey, non-glossy fabric, like perhaps a velvet, could be taped over the wall, behind your subject. If possible, move the subject a bit farther from any background.
    Do not be afraid of composing the subject more tightly, so that one sees more of them, and less background. Even with a "talking head" shot, you can get much tighter with the framing.
    I would also go for a bit more controlled lighting on your subject. Even placing a white card, or sheet to one side, just to fill in the face, would be better. Just keep it out of the coverage of the camera. A piece of foamcore, or Gator-foam, would work well. Angle it to fill that side of the subject's face.
    The audio was recorded in a fairly "hard," or "live" environment. If the mic is camera-mounted, think about hanging some soft fabric, in a V, behind the camera and operator. The camera would be in the apex of the V. A few quilts would work fine. That should help remove the slight echo of the room, and "soften" the sound a bit.
    Good luck, and hope those ideas help.

  • Why can't we get Adobe Photoshop help on the weekends. If I buy it I should be able to use it.

    Why can't we get Adobe Photoshop help on the weekends. If I buy it I should be able to use it.

    To all frustrated Photoshop users:
    As has been pointed out, the Adobe Photoshop Forum is NOT staffed by Adobe employees (though a few engineers DO stop by, when they have the time), and we are but users, such as yourself. The difference is that many users here have decades of experience with Ps, and can often solve all sorts of issues, of a technical nature.
    Ranting, and listing bad experiences with Adobe Technical Support (or Customer Support), will NOT reach Adobe - just other users, who might have also had negative experiences with Adobe T/S, but who are powerless to change anything, at a corporate level - also noted by others in this thread.
    We, as users, have no access to any communications that you might have had with T/S - no phone logs, no case numbers, nothing. All that we have is what YOU provide us, regarding YOUR problem. In that vein, if you read this FAQ Entry, plus the one linked in Station_Two's Reply above, and clearly state YOUR problem with the program, someone will attempt to help you with it: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4587299#4587299
    Please be patient, as we are all volunteers (even the Adobe engineers come here on their own time - it's most likely not part of their job descriptions), and drop by the forum, when we have a moment. Many users DO have "day jobs," and face client deadlines. They might not get by that often, and then with breaks in timing, that can extend for days. This is not a "live chat room," where "operators are standing by." However, with the number of contributing users here, it should not take too long, before someone DOES reply to your post. If they have questions, please answer them, to the best of your abilities, and do not hesitate to ask for clarifications, if you are not sure what they are asking, or where to obtain that information. Also, please be courteous, when replying to the users, who are donating their time - they get zero, beyond the satisfaction of helping other users get answers and solutions. If they DO help, which is likely, a simple "thank you," is the best that they can receive. If they DO help, please take a moment to let them know, and also use the "Correct," and "Helpful" buttons in the forum, to let Adobe Corporate know that you got help in the Adobe Forums - they DO count those numbers, though they do not monitor these forums.
    Good luck, and many feel that the help FROM the Adobe products forums, is much better, than from Adobe Technical Support.

  • Where is the "Photoshop Help Folder" located on the Mac?

    Hi all,
    I am trying to install Strata 3D tryout and it is asking for the location of the "Additional How To Content" folder, inside the "Photoshop Help Folder". I cannot find the "Photoshop Help Folder"... can someone tell me where it is located?
    Thanks a lot in advance for your assistance:)
    Christine

    If you are not online and choose help, you'll get a html-based and non-updated version that's being read from your Libraries' Application Support folder.
    If you want a help.pdf you can get it here:
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Photoshop/11.0/photoshop_cs4_help.pdf
    But by using the online version you're always up to date with Adobe, as probably is intended hence the help setup.

  • Photoshop Help in CS4

    When I click on Photoshop Help in the Help Menu in CS4, it goes to the web and proclaims that the url cannot be found (it is obvioulsy an incorrect url that reads
    The requested URL /en_US/Photoshop/11.0/--POSTPROCESS-INSERT-GOURL-- was not found on this server.
    I have found the correct url (and bookmarked it) but it would be nice to get there from inside CS4 itself. Can anyone tell me how I can change the requested URL to the correct one?
    Thanks! I am techically deficient so I am hoping it is a simple fix. Otherwise, I guess I will just go there from my web browser. I have to add that I find it a titch irksome that my 5 minute old upgrade has such an obvious defect but I figure it is probably faster to try the brains here than to try offical Adobe-dom.

    Great to see you posting here after all this time.

  • Where the %^)(! is the index in Photoshop Help?

    There was a time when every Adobe product came with a simple pdf manual. Simple questions could be easily asked of it. It would take a few seconds to find out a keyboard shortcut or where they moved that feature to. Now it takes 20 minutes of searching, and ultimately Googling "Anyone know how to do such-and-such?"

    Think the most recent Photoshop Help in PDF is this one: http://helpx.adobe.com/pdf/photoshop_reference.pdf
    And yes, I pretty much google everything, too.
