Needless to say, I’ve done a search here, searched on the internet, looked through FOUR of my PShop books and I STILL can’t get it.
Problem: Simple text with a transparent background.
Steps I’ve taken:
1) File/New and selected transparent background.
2) Added my text (no effects)
At this point, the background is still showing as transparent (checkerboard pattern).
3) Saved my file first as a .psd (in case I need to edit later) – still seeing checkerboard pattern after the save as.
4) Saved to Web – at this point, if I default to the jpeg type, the background changes to white. If I select .gif, I can check "transparency".
So am I to assume that saving as a jpeg file (.jpg) does NOT allow me to have a transparent background but saving as a .gif does?
Am I missing any other options I can try in order to save to web as a jpg with transparent background?
Thanks so much!
