I have Photoshop CS2 and have ordered InDesign CS3 after looking at a trial download. If I am shooting in camera raw and I want to transfer a part of an image onto a page without the background from the image, what is the best method for preparing the image… I don’t necessarily need step by step instructions just to be pointed in the direction of the best method. For example we are working on a book about firearms in a museum collection and want to place some of the photos without backgrounds and some with backgrounds.

Isolate the object with a selection, put it on a new layer (Ctrl+J) and delete the back ground layer.

"Save as… " under a new name and place in InDesign.
