Okay….I’ve posted this question about 100 times now and am still not getting things to work. This has been a problem for me for over TWO YEARS!
I place a graphic into PageMaker/Word.PowerPoint/etc. on a colored background. There is a white box around the graphic. I have followed step-by-step instructions in PSE help. I have also followed instructions from the kind people on this forum. Nothing is working. This is what I’ve been doing:
1. Open the graphic (a logo), which has 3 layers.
2. Make sure background is saved as a regular layer.
3. Using the magic eraser, I click on the white background.
4. The checkerboard pattern appears.
5. Go to ‘save as’ (TIFF format) and click the box that says ‘save transparency’.
6. When I place the graphic on a colored background, the white box is still there.
PLEASE tell me what I’m doing wrong! I’m on the verge of a breakdown!
Sincerely,
Erica
