Title: Photoshop Question.
Post by: David Anderson on December 30, 2013, 05:56:38 pm

Hi There,

I have a fairly involved (line drawing made from photo) logo drawn black on white than I need to have black on transparent - is there an easy way to select the white and convert it to transparent ?

Thanks if you can help !

Sorry, should have added, it's the latest photoshop on a new Mac.

One way would be to use the Layer Styles dialogue and using the Blend If option for This Layer move the white point slider to the left until the white has been replaced with transparency
Note: You cannot do this on a locked Background layer so first unlock it
