    Text help needed

    I removed the Faux Bold, added a stroke and adjusted the tracking and it looks pretty good. I was then able to convert all text layers to shapes without a problem. When I print on my printer it certainly looks comparable to the original file, so I have gone ahead and sent it to our online...

    Thanks John, unfortunately I won't be able to give this a try until Thursday. It certainly looks promising, but just as Faux Bold doesn't create usable results with some fonts, I suspect the same will be true with this technique. Of course if this does turn out to create an acceptable "bold"...

    I have tried this with various tolerance settings for the magic wand and creation of the work path but the resulting shape layer created is a) not smooth and b) loses some weight. Do you have any suggestions on where and how I should make adjustments to end up with a perfectly smooth outline...

    Yes, I see that, thanks. The piece I am working on has six different layers of text that use Faux Bold. Could I combine these into one layer before doing this, or is it necessary to do each layer individually?

    Thanks John! Sounds like a set of instructions I should be able to follow! I'll give it a try and let you know how I make out.

    You're way over my head at this point! I was under the impression that "converting to outlines" was by definition converting to vector. Instructions provided by the printer are to use "Convert to Shape" mention in my original post - does that create vector or raster outlines?

    Raster is fine for graphics, they just need fonts to be converted to outlines.

    The online printer I use requires text to be converted to outlines. This is very easily accomplished by using "Convert to Shape" on the Type menu. For the piece I have created this time, I needed to use Faux Bold style and Superscript for the font because only the regular style is available for...

    Specific Isolate subjects please?

    Can someone please remove the background in this image, leaving only the girl and the horse on transparent. All that hair/mane is way beyond my abilities! Thanks, Chris.

    Specific Is there any hope for this one?

    Thanks again guys - great work! Too bad we didn't have a better quality image to start with.

    Specific Is there any hope for this one?

    Thank you! Yes, that could work, although I had been thinking in terms of more than just head and shoulders (may be wishful thinking!) Also I probably should have mentioned that the end result has to fit portrait-oriented space 2.75" x 3.5" but this could be cropped to fit.

    A friend has asked me to put together pictures to use for table numbers at her upcoming wedding and would like to use this one, but of course the guy she is with is not who she is marrying (some 12 years on!) With my limited skills and even more limited imagination, I am not coming up with a way...
