For instance, when I cut out a speech bubble and scan it, there is a whitish background; I want to get rid of this without using an image manipulation program.
Are there setting that I have to change while scanning to achieve this?
Thanks!

As far as a I know it's impossible. Scanners have a white 'background' that will be scanned as part of the image. It might be possible, if your scanning software allows it, to use a green or blue background that is then treated as transparent, similar to the use of chroma key: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chroma_key Otherwise it has to be done in a second program but using the same technique. |
