Photoshop Elements :: PDFs Checkered On Import - Seen As Layer
Feb 18, 2014
having only used Photoshop elements for about 6 months. I have frequently imported PDFs into Elements, where they always showed up as the background. I could see the information clearly, draw on the PDF, and then save it as a jpeg with the modifications that I made (work project).
However, today the PDFs are showing up checkered (which I read has something to do with transparency). It also is imported with the title "Layer 1" not a background layer, like before.
I edited the transparency preferences to reduce the grid size to "none", but that only created a white block where the PDF should be--the information that was in the PDF didn't show up. It's like the PDFs are not showing up at all when I import them.

When using the erasure or erasure background tools, it leaves a checkered background. How can I get the erasure tool to leave a white or color backround?

Certain pdf files will not import even though they look as if they are when I chose to merge. Same thing when I try to open.These very same files can be imported (placed) into Indesign. I have checked layers and there is only one (the visible current one which shows a pdf in the layer properties. It just is not visible though.

I have a photo of a white shirt with small black checks as a pattern. A large transparent yellow stain needs to be removed. The checks are one tenth of an inch square and one tenth of an inch apart. The original photo is lost and I have it at 200 ppi.

I need removing the "transparent" checkered background. I pasted an image and started erasing everything around it. Once everything was checkered but the picture, I copied and pasted it to another image. Now my selection of this image came with the checkered background. I'm trying to find a way to remove this so only my pasted image shows.

I'd like to create a pattern so that I can fill a large rectangle with it and have it look like a checkered tablecloth.
I've attached an image of the idea of the pattern, as well the pattern I created and the result, which did not come out the way I wanted. How do I get it to be seamless (repeated with no break)?

I have two maps of same area (different years) and I want to match them up as one map. I can load them both as layers and make the older map transparent so that I can see through to newer map, but older map is larger than the newer map (in the background). I can move the transparent map but I cannot make just the transparent map smaller to fit over the other map. I will also need to rotate the map slightly. When I try to resize it changes both maps. I have tried the transform and the move tool. So how can I make one layer smaller and rotate it it leaving the other layer intact?

I have been trying to copy a mask from one layer to a new layer in Elements 11. I can do this in CS3 by using alt and dragging to the new layer. It doesn't work in Elements 11. Is this feature unavailable in elements 11 or is there a different command? there doesn't seem to be much point in spending all that time making a complex layer amsk and then being unable to use it on another layer.
I have to give a tutorial on layer masks using both CS3 and elements at the Camera Club!

How do you import a jpg image into a layer in Photoshop ? I am trying to build a website template in Photoshop and want to import images into various layers to move around. In Fireworks it's as easy as INSERT>IMAGE.

I want to make a simple animation from 3 pictures (gifs saved on my computer). I understand that I have to get these 3 pictures to be layers but I can't work out how to do that. One tutorial referred to Image>convert to editable layer but I don't see this option on my menu (using CS2). I have to admit to not having mastered layers properly yet.
I would be so grateful if someone could give a step by step description of how to import 3 different pictures and somehow get them into one animation. The ability to make simple animations would make an enormous difference to the project I am working on.

Is there any way to have more than one text placement inside of a single layer, but be able to maintain and move each of those separately from the others? From what I have seen, each new Text item gets its own new layer. If I want to document an image with seven points of reference, it's absolutely crazy that I have to maintain seven layers, each with an integer 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7. What would be much more maintainable is to create ONE layer and name it "MAP-NUMBERS" and then have seven integers placed into that one layer. I would then want to be able to move - say - "2" around separately from "4". Then making all of the numbers appear or disappear becomes as easy as hiding or showing one layer.
Is there a way to do this with any version of Photoshop?

Description of the task: I want to create a tool which is able to visualize the positions of pieces on a game board. At the moment I'm using Photoshop Elements 7. I think the following procedure would be appropriate:
2 layers, the basic layer would show the game board and the images of the pieces would be on the second layer. If I try to do that with Photoshop Elements 7 then each time when I insert an image of a piece a new layer is created. I don't need a layer per figure. Yes, one could reduce a layer afterwards. But it's not so comfortable this way.
In addition the images of the pieces should be movable on the game board. There is the option "free transform" in Photoshop Elements 7 but only one element (one piece) is movable afterwards. All the inserted elements should be movable.
So my question: Is it feasible within Photoshop Elements 7? If not, which version of Photoshop Elements would be adequate or which software do I need?

I would like to move elements of that painting onto a separate layer. What is the best way to do this? An example of this would be a painting with the moon in a night sky. I might want to move that moon object into a separate layer.
My reason for wanting to do this is I want to change the background of the painting without worrying about doing fine details around the objects I am moving. A second benefit of moving the objects to a layer is that I can then easily move the location of those elements in the painting around, trying to reposition them.
can I get all of the elements I am moving onto a SINGLE layer AND still have the ability to move those elements around separately? If I want to move 10 elements in a painting to a separate layer, it is REALLY inconvenient to have to put those into 10 separate layers and constantly maintain naming of these different layers.

I am new to scripting in Illustrator.I am trying to import PSD files into an AI layer.So far this is my solution.
var TRGdoc = app.documents.add(DocumentColorSpace.RGB, "1920", "1080");
var onFile = File( '~/Desktop/jpeger/illDanceREFon_00642.psd' );
var REFon = app.open(onFile);
var LAYon = REFon.layers[0];
var LAYstuffon = LAYon.pageItems[0];
LAYstuffon.selected = true;
app.copy();
TRGdoc.activate();
var TRGlayer = TRGdoc.layers[0];
TRGlayer.selected = true;
app.paste();
It works most of the time but sometimes it hangs up on the paste.

In previous versions, when we’ve want to import a psd file, we could choose from several options (all/layer/flat). Particular, we could select the layer of the psd you want imported.
In the 2013, we can’t do this. Is it possible to have these opportunities again?

I'm trying to import layer group filters from dwg to dwg. I know that this feature removed with Autocad 2005. I know i can import layer states, but layer states doesn't solve my problem. I tried "lfilterio" but it's not working.
how to make it, with or without a lisp routine. Or may be write one?

My designer has created some pdf portfolios from In Design (which I don't own and have never used) . They are quite blurry and off color. I have taken the same images and run them in PHotoshop and Bridge 4 and the pdfs produced by PS and Bridge looks 10 times shaper and clearer.
This gets complex becuase they are all formatted quite complexly for In Design, and it will take too much time to re-formatt them for Photoshop or Bridge. But she has no idea why they are not coming out sharp and nice with In Design.
It's not compression.
She has been outputting with no compression from In Design and they still look subpar.
