How to scan and affix signature to a photo

[apenan]

I want to affix my signature to my landscape photos but do not know how.
Any advice?
Thanks.

Hi

You need to isolate the text on it's own layer, open your scanned document
There are various methods you could use, if for example the scanned doc has a white BG you could use the color range tool to either select the white and invert the selection or select the text with the same tool and hit CTRL + J to copy that to new layer, then just drag the text into the landscape photo



If you want to save the signature, save it as a PNG with transparent background

Hey. As Ged stated, there are many ways to accomplish this.

I have alwyas used a signature made into a Ps brush.
Here's a great video showing one way this can be done.
