In this Photoshop Clipping Path tutorial, we will learn, in an easy way, to create Clipping Path by using Photoshop Pen Tool from Adobe Photoshop.
To draw the path firstly need to open an image in Photoshop, then select the “Pen Tool” from the “toolbox” (if you can’t see the toolbox, go to the window menu and select “Tools”). Now, make sure that you have selected “Paths” from the “pen tool menu bar” which is located below of the main Menu bar.
If you want to rename the path name then double click on the “work path” and rename it.
Now zoom the image by 200% to 400% depending on the resolution of the image. Zooming enables to create sufficient and good anchor points. Then click on the image edge and drag the mouse pointer towards the next step and release the mouse. After an appropriate distance, again click on the image edge and continue in the same way until you have completed moving around the image.
When completing the moving, click on the starting point in order to close the path.
When path would be created then go to go to the triangle-shaped icon located at the top right corner of the Paths palette and select “Clipping Path”. A dialogue box will appear asking to choose your desired path and Flatness. Select the path you want to Clipped and Put the flatness you desire and click “OK”. You are now almost done. Flatness is the desired amount of pixel you want to make blur the image edge. The more amount you use in Flatness the more image edge will become a blur. In general, leave the Flatness box blank (0) and the image edge will be 100% sharp which is most of the time appropriate.
You can now save the file in JPG, PNG, PSD or TIFF format and ready to place into the program you are working with for your design. This time you will get the image without the background and will able to set any new background or color.
