Photoshop
The photoshop interface-
Freeing up a layer (unlocking) - Double click ont he layer and click ok.
Removing white background- Use wand tool and select white background, then delete
Removeing the white background so that other programs can read it.
To hide the marching ants (ctrl + h)
magic wand tool click on white background - select inverse
Add layer mask-
Go to channels- hide all other layers (rgb,red,green,blue) the view will show the white as the visible and the balck as the transparent (grey tones are semi transparent). This helps you to see any unwanted dots on the background which has been missed.
You can clean up the bits not wanted with a black pen, any black pen will turn transparent and the white pen will bring back the white background.
Cleaning up rough drawings
I decided that instead of print screening and using up a lot of time i would use a program called Camstudio and record what i am doing on my screen.
So this is the process i will go through to clean up and remove white background from a rough drawing.
Batch Scan (scanning in multiple images with a scanner and importing them into Photoshop)
Open Photoshop - file - Automate - Batch - choose set - choose the action
Trying a non linear approach (personal experimentation)
