how can fill in colors to letters like O etc .
I have written something in text form in a simple font.
now I just need to fill some colors to the spaces inside the letter O how can that be done.
We receive art files here to work on. They've gone to a couple of different sources before we get them, so we really don't know how the file was originally saved. It gets emailed to us so that we can get it ready to send to the plate makers.
After opening the file, I save it as a Corel Draw file, then work on it. The problem starts when converting the Corel file to an AI file. The AI file now shows sections of letters filled in, like the letter o.
We're using Corel X5 and using Windows 7.
I would like to fill in (the shape of the letters of) a word with another word (using repetition). What is the easiest way to do this in Illustrator (CS3)?

I need to use this font because that's my company's font for their name and I'm trying to design a sign. I have used the blob brush, but I keep getting tiny little specks that look like they're not filled in.

Basically what I would like to do is take a background image, put a grid on it, and fill the squares in the grid with custom (not random) colors. Every spot on the grid will have a fill color.
I was thinking that I would use Excel to create a comma delimited file with each cell containing the correct color, and I want to know if there's a way for GIMP to read a hex value, color the square of the grid corresponding to the hex value, then move on to the next square.
How can you make entwined letters where two letters in two different colors overlap AND underlap each other? If I convert them (from text) to curves and then use the Virtual Segment Delete Tool, it leaves open curves and the color disappears. How can I close the open curves in a way that follows the lines of the letters (as opposed to making a straight line) so I can get the color back? Or is there an altogether better way?

If I create a new black canvas then the colors selected in color picker work with paint bucket.But if I attempt to recolor the background in an existing image that I import into Photoshop, I get the mismatch with colors when I use paint bucket. My method for selecting colors is the same in each case, I select 'set foreground color' and set the color using html values entry at the bottom of the panel.
Just wanted to print a new photo and realized that the colors in print preview do not match the colors in soft proofing. In both cases I selected the same icc profile and rendering method. The print colors matched the colors in print preview. I never had a problem so far. All new prints will be checked with soft proofing and adjusted when necessary. I never paid attention to the color rendition in print preview and all prints perfectly matched the colors from the soft proofing. I was surprised when my print came out of the printer and the colors weren't matching the soft proofing colors, but that of the print preview.
I don't understand why Photoshop renders the colors differently in the first place. See attached screenshot for the difference in the blue/cyan colors. I don't care if the print view colors will match the print, but I do care when soft proofing is not working.
I'm selecting a shirt, then I do a fill with new color. Only annoying things is I have to guess and fill then guess and fill.

So my friend is making these designs on paper and i am tasked to put them into photoshop. The problem is when i scan them in they are patchy they look horrible.

This is a basic question as I am a novice with both Illustrator and Photoshop. I have a vector shape of an apple in Illustrator. It is 2 piece- the body and the stem. I would like to fill this shape with a part of a photograph.
I'm wondering if I should do this in Illustrator or should move it over to Photoshop as a selection and then do it there? I'm also going to bevel the edges of the shape.
The next question is how to do it, which tool should I be using in either program? Is this considered a "fill" operation or am I cutting this shape out of the photo?
I'd like to select a section of an image and then fill it with a texture from another image. For instance, I could add bark texture from a tree to a section of a face. I'm not sure how to select a texture from one image and apply it to another.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI created a pattern of concrete block coursing that I want to apply to a picture of the side of a building. The pattern is clipped so that it will repeat appropriately when filled into a large area. The problem is that depending on where I fill in the canvas, the pattern never fills in with the same start point. I want it to always start at the bottom left corner of the pattern (which is the bottom left corner of a block). Is there a way to set the point that a pattern moves out from? Also, does the pattern radiate from its center point or one of the corners?
In Autocad there is a snapbase command that lets you choose the start point for a pattern. This is exactly what I'm looking for in photoshop.
I have defined the picture of a brick wall as pattern. I want to fill an area with that but:
1) The area is smaller
2)I want it 2x2
(I had put a demonstration but it doesn't work)
The colors of pictures is much darker when working in photoshop than when I open it normally. And vice versa, I work on images inside photoshop, and I get the colors I want, but once I save it to bmp or jpg or anything else, all the colors are much lighter.
i'm using photoshop 7.
I am working in Photoshop CS4...have been for years. All of a sudden, when I try to fill a closed path with a color, it fills the entire art board with color, except not inside the path. I have not selected "inverse" or anything....and it has never done this before....I can't figure out why it has started doing this, and I can't get it to stop. Most of the paths in my file, I have made in Illustrator and then pasted into Photoshop...they work normally....it is just the ones I actually draw in Photoshop that are doing this....one thing I have noticed is that in the paths palette, the paths I pasted in from Illustrator have a grey background.....while the paths I actually drew in Photoshop have a white background.

1. Then fill in the new details and call it layer 2.I then remove layer 1 and layer 2 is in the correct position for inserting the certificate into the printer and printing on it.Of course this is just my theory, how to even try it!
every time that I want to expend my picture resolution I using the crop tool and make the photo bigger but PS filling the new area with transparency instead of white. How can I set it to be white by default ?

I want to make a logo that's filled with images but maintains an overall shape,for example, a outline of Australia that's filled with approx 15 images all combined but does not go outside of the overall Australian shape, would also like the outer images to bend and follow the outline without it looking"boxy".
View 4 Replies View Relatedthis is not a hard one, but it is hard for me to figure out. i would like to find out how to fill a shape with some patterns exactly like how it looks in the below picture. As you can see, the filled pattern pictures(those small hearts) are not overlayed and the sizes are random. And the edge of the shape(that's the big heart) is just smooth. how to do it?

I want to leave the background untouched (if filled) or transparent.

II just want a black line outlining the text, with a photo insidethe text.

As you can see there I am located between doors, that's good and I want them to leave untouched, but the point is to remove wall and stairs behind my back and switch it with sky, clouds texture (image). For example this one. I mean not to insert the whole background, just adequate part of it.
I have an image that I wish to edit slightly, by filling the background with a certain colour.
What I basically want is the horse to remain white, with the black border, but the main background (underneath the horse) to be maroon.
way to fill in shapes that have gaps without the colour bleeding all over the rest of the page?
For instance in Macromedia Flash there's an option to close small, medium, large gaps so that the colour remains within the shape.
I'm using Photoshop 7.0
I was reading a certain tutorial for photoshop where it says to 'create a new layer and fill it with a certain color'. So how do I fill a layer with color!? Im perplexed!
