Photoshop :: Editing A Scanned Document

Nov 23, 2007

I'd like to Edit a document that's being scanned from a scanner (Epson cx5000 all in one printer)

More specifically i want to edit the text on the document. I know about OCR software and how it will convert the image into editable text in like MS word and what not, but that's not really what i need to do.

i need the document text to look exactly the same after the edit as it does from the scan, if you know what i mean.

I'm editing a certification. I lost my OC cert (oleoresin capsicum, commonly referred to as "Pepper Spray." you only need to be sprayed with it once in your life (so long as you have the cert); and I'm absolutely not about to get sprayed again, as I'd probably rather shoot myself in the leg.

I have another person's cert that i can scan, i just need to change the date and name on the cert.

I'm not having much luck getting the edited version too look right though. The text looks too sharp compared to the other text; matching fonts is proving tricky, and when printed off, the area that's edited looks "whiter" than the areas not edited.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 :: Editing Text In Document

Aug 15, 2012

Yesterday, suddently when editing text in a document, clicking outside of the text edit, CDR crashes:

Runtime error!

Program: c:Program Fi...

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an

unusual way.

Please contact the application's support team for more information.

I have tried to do the tricks, I googled, like resetting to factory, editing the xml file and running as administrator. Nothing works. It is when I edit any font, and in a new document also. AND update of CDR X4 with service pack 2 did not work.

GIMP :: Cannot Edit Text (confirm Text Editing)

Jan 3, 2013

I am clicking on a layer in GIMP, and when I click on the text tool, this dialog pops up "CONFIRM TEXT EDITING" "the layer you selected is a text layer but it has been modified using other tools. Editing the layer with the text tool will discard these modifications. You can edit the layer or create a new text layer from its text attributes."

with 3 options, Create New layer, Cancel, and Edit however, no matter what I click, it doesn't let me create new text anywhere.ALSO, it seems to jump from the layer i selected to another layer whenever I click "EDIT."

What is weird is that I was able to create new text prior to this, but not anymore. it's gimp 2.8.0

GIMP :: Erasing Text In PDF Document?

Jul 12, 2013

I'm having a problem performing the most basic task - erasing. This seems crazy that I'm having such a problem with this.

I have opened a pdf document in Gimp 2.8 for Windows. Then I:

- choose 'Tools'
- then, 'Paint Tools'
- then, 'Eraser'

Once I try to start erasing some of the black text on a pure white background, the eraser has a 'checkered' pattern. So instead of erasing in 'white', the tool erases with a checker pattern. See the attached photo.

Photoshop Elements :: Cropping JPG Scanned Document

Jan 19, 2013

I am using PSE 9 to crop JPEG scaned documents.  In the past I have cropped these images and used the crop box to center the scanned image.  The crop box usually goes past the edge of the document.  When I did this in the past, the area off the document and inside the crop box would turn white, which is what I need it to do.  Now it is turning black. how to get it back to defalting to white.

Photoshop :: Editing A Scanned Image

Apr 27, 2009

I'm currently an Art Major in school, and I've been studying examples from the Art Nouveau era. I've been sketching out symmetrical designs, scanning them and mirroring them on Photoshop.

All has gone well so far, however, I'm now trying to figure out how to clean it up and make it look "perfect". In terms of being perfect, I want it to look completely clean. I darkened the lines as much as I could and erased as much as I could, however, I've tried different things such as blurring, sharpening, and adjusting levels, but the lines still seem too jagged from the sketching. I'm wanting to smooth them out and make them look nice.

Here is my drawing:

and here is an example of what I would like it to look like(minus the completely filled in black part)

You see how crisp it is? No jagged edges, completely smooth and clean. This is what I want.

GIMP :: Editing Text Along A Path?

Nov 18, 2012

I have been using it to create graphics for the pin-back buttons I make. I have been using the Photoshop 1" button template located on this page:[URL]

The template has the words "perimeter text" that follows the inside of a path on the template. In the video demo on the same page in which the user used photoshop to demonstrate, she just hovers over the text with the mouse after selecting the text tool and is able to click on it and just change the exsisting text. I have not found this to be the case using Gimp. Is there a way I can easily edit this text, or do I have to create my own text along the path? If I have to create my own text along the path, how do I make it so the text follws in inside edge of the path?

GIMP :: Editing Multiple Text Boxes?

Dec 21, 2011

I want to do a glow effect on a logo that I am working on.. the problem is that all the tutorials I've seen are for single text boxes. I will need to have different sizes and fonts so it requires more than one text box. I can edit the first text box to where I can "path from text," add a new layer, "select from path," create an outline using the "grow" effect and then blur the it so it looks like a soft edge with a different color than the text. I would like to do this for each text box, but when I add a new layer for a new letter and attempt to "select from path" it will only highlight the letter that I've already completed with the glow effect. I'm thinking I will have to save the file each time I create a new glow letter and reopen as a new file to add one more glow letter... but is there a faster way? I've attached a screen shot... the whole logo will read like this:

Affiliated
Wellness
Group

The A,W, and G will be larger and in a different font than the lowercase letters when its done. SO I will have 6 text boxes total.

GIMP :: On-canvas Text Editing / Make Optional Plea

GIMP :: Editing Text Will No Longer Apply Italic Nor Bold Effects

Oct 1, 2013

When I am editing text, GIMP will no longer apply italic nor bold effects. (Underline works though.)

I just upgraded from 2.8(.2?) to 2.8.6, and now I have this problem. I also just upgraded from Win XP to WIn 7 and upgraded from 32-bit to 64-bit, so I don't know if that is a factor.

I have files I created with the last version of GIMP that I can open and see the text properly formatted, but if I adjust the text the formatting disappears and WILL NOT come back.

GIMP won't print anymore either. My printer is set up correctly and I can print from other programs, but when I print from GIMP, it LOOKS like it went through, but the printer fails to do anything. I wind up having to tell GIMP to print to the microsoft xps writer (which DOES work) and then open the xps file I just made and have windows print it.

Xara :: Editing A Scanned Drawing Colors Using Shaped Color Fills And Transparencies

May 24, 2013

I am attempting to edit a scanned abstract drawing where many of the colors are similar, resulting in them printing as all the same shade of red. I am attempting to change some of the reds to have a greater degree of shading. I am aware that I can probably do this using masks and RGB tweaking; but it occurred to me that I can also use a drawn shape and color fill with transparency to change the shade. This worked very well; but it caused one problem I don't know how to solve.

The image I am editing is intended to be uploaded to a website named Zazzle that takes your artwork and puts it on their products. This includes anything from notecards to canvases, to clothing, to shoes, etc., etc. Customers browse the site to find products and images they like. I also have a free webpage on the site where I can promote the sale of these items with my artwork on them.

The image must be a high resolution preferably png file which can be resized greatly for the canvases or left as is for notecards and the like.

While experimenting with the size of my image, I discovered that the edits I performed stay the same size while the rest of the image increases. Is it possible to make the edited shapes part of the scanned image so they will increase and decrease with the rest of the image?

GIMP :: Coloring In Scanned Pages?

Mar 24, 2013

I'm trying to get myself a little better with digital art, but still not too comfortable with the idea of doing the initial drawing without pen and paper. The only downside is that I can't really get those crisp colors with just pencil colors.

how do I go about setting things up to where I can color in a scanned, non-colored inked page, but without worrying about overlapping my inks and making it look messy in general. I imagine it would have something to do with copying and pasting new layers, but I just can't get a handle on what I'm supposed to do. I also know about messing with opacity to let outlines show through, but there's still the issue of color dulling the black when it overlaps.

GIMP :: Separating Scanned Photos

May 25, 2013

I just got a new computer. I had Photo Shop Elements on my old one. I appears that Gimp can do the same things for free. One thing Photo Shop Elements did was provide a way to scan as many photos as would fit on your scanner and then provide a way to separate them. Can Gimp do that? Sometimes I would need to use Elements to open a scanned photo. Would Gimp open a photo scanned on Elements?

I am trying to decide whether to buy Elements for my new Windows 8 or download Gimp.

GIMP :: Clean A Scanned Image

Dec 10, 2011

I would like to scan an image and clean it afterwards because areas of the same color in the original image (a poker card, so a simple logo with white, black, red, blue and yellow areas) end up to have spots of different color.

Is there a way to improve scan fidelity or edit the image with Gimp in order to smooth these differences and recreate the same areas of uniform color?
