Can I produce a jpg with a transparent background?

I need one to put some text into a web published image. The system I am using creates watermarks by using jpgs of text but they need the background to be transparent rather than white. The jpg I have offered shows the text with a white background. I think there are third party programs that will mak...

Re: Choosing a colour by RGB numbers

J, Found it - in the New Image box. I'm coming to the conclusion that, having made my mask, I get better results by first removing all the original colour and producing a b&w plane. I then add the pantone colour to that version. Previously too much of the variants of the old colour were leaking ...

Re: Choosing a colour by RGB numbers

J.

I am going simple.

I can't find the way to color the background of my new blank image.

Help shows an icon saying Background but I can't find it.

Sorry.

T.

Re: Choosing a colour by RGB numbers

I had chosen Color Correct.

I see nothing at the bottom there.

What would you use, J?

Choosing a colour by RGB numbers

A friend wants me to re-colour a jpg of a plane he used to fly. He has told me the Pantone number he feels is right. Professor Google tells me what that number is in RGB terms. I have made a mask of the body of the plane. I can see some options for altering the colour in the Transformation drop down...

Re: Remove shine from photo of oil painting

Thanks Doug. I now keep the mask unsaved and have a workflow that is working. I create the mask over the troublesome area. I click overlap. I click Color Range and select HSL I move the bottom slider so that around 1/3 is black a the left. I click Apply and the mask then only shows on the worst bits...

Re: Remove shine from photo of oil painting

Thanks Doug, That has taken me a step forward. I created the mask over the area with shine. I used Overlap and the Color Range to pick out the shiny bits. I am not sure what to do next. If I invert I can see the shiny bits masked but so is the main part of the image that was not originally masked. I...

Re: Remove shine from photo of oil painting

I'm working through these suggestions and am currently stuck on Jonathan's sequence. Could someone help me, please. I created the first mask (1) and saved it. I put the mask on the shiny area. Which is why I inverted it later! I then did Combine Masks to add the mask back to the image and I inverted...
