Photoshop

[mikael]

I am wondering whether anybody knows whether photoshop is hard to use to do basic tasks?

Say you have a letter that you have written which you have only in hardcopy (not saved in any computer) and you wanted to scan it and then use photoshop to edit the contents within the letter (e.g. the date) because you're too lazy to type the whole thing all over again, would this be a difficult task to do?

I've never used photoshop and was just curious.

Nah it's easy! Once scanned, you can conveniently erase the parts you don't need (eraser tool), and then override it with similar text (text tool)

Photoshopping a med cert or something? Typing on top of it isn't difficult, but making the typed text appear 'real' would since it would have a different resolution/colour to everything around it, and possibly alignment (fairly easily fixed). Black ink when scanned never comes out jet black. Printing out the letter should take care of the resolution differences though.

VN in no way endorses illegal activity and doctoring of forms.

eye drop the background colour and then if the font is too obscure cut and copy the letters needed and rearrange them.

Sneeky sneeky ^^^^^^ hahaha

It will probably take you longer to install and learn how to use photoshop than it would take to just rewrite it. Unless you actually want to falsify forms, in which case you'll need to use photoshop
