    Photoshop for map editing

    I wanted to add an update to this thread now that I have been working on this project for a while. I studied enough of the Phlearn 30 days of PS to understand how to do what I needed to do for my mapping project. I switched our preferred file type for scans to TIFF which made a world of...

    Thank you so much Rich. This is exactly what I needed to know. It sound like I need to learn how to use Photoshop. Are there any resources you recommend for learning the software? Skillshare comes to mind as a possibility. Also, I noticed some of the lines were lightened by the color...
