To create a new document, click File > New. This will open the Document Setup dialog box
Here you will be able to name your file, set up the correct page size and orientation for your document.
Options include, but are not limited to:
Page Size and Orientation
Change the page size by typing in new values for width and height. Page size represents the final size
you want after bleeds or trimming other marks outside the page. In the Preset dropdown menu you
can find such common sizes as letter, legal, tabloid, etc. Typing in exact values for Height and Width gives
you more control over the size and orientation of your page.
Resolution
Resolution is the number of pixels on a printed area of an image. The higher the resolution, the more
pixels there are on the page, the better the quality of the image. However, high resolution increases
the size of the file. The standard recommended resolution for printed images is 150-300, for Web
images it is 72.
Color Mode
Choose a color mode that will best fit your project. For example, when making a graphic for a web
site, choose RGB. When making an image for print choose CMYK.
Background Contents
Choose the background: white, color or transparent. When you have entered all of your document
settings, click Ok.
Opening an image from a disk
If the image you have is saved on a disk or to the computer, select File > Open, and then navigate to the disk
drive/file where your image is saved. Choose the image file and click Open. At this point, you may want to save
your image under a different name so that you can always have the original to fall back on in case of a mistake.
To save your file, select File > Save As and type in the new name of the file in the dialogue box.
Menu Bar
If you look at the top of the screen you will see the Menu bar (Figure 3), which contains all the main
functions of Photoshop, such as File, Edit, Image, Layer, Select, Filter, Analysis, 3D, View, Window, and
Help.
Toolbar
Most of the major tools are located in the Toolbar for easy access.
The Image
The image will appear in its own window once you open a file.
Image Name
The name of any image that you open will be at the top of the image window as shown above.
Palettes
Palettes contain functions that help you monitor and modify images. By default, palettes are stacked
together in groups. These are the palettes that are usually visible: Color, Adjustments and Layers. If none
of the palettes are visible, go to Window in the Menu bar and choose the palettes you need.
Color, Swatches, Style
The Color palette (Figure 4) displays the current foreground and background colors and RGB values for these
colors. You can use the sliders to change the foreground and background colors in different color modes. You
can also choose a color from the spectrum of colors displayed in the color ramp at the bottom of the palette.
Color palette
In the Swatches palette you can choose a foreground or background color and add a customized
color to the library.
Swatches palette
The Styles palette allows you to view, select, and apply preset layer styles. By default, a preset style
replaces the current layer style. You can use the styles in the palette or add your own using the Create New
Style icon.
Styles palette
History
The History palette (Figure 7) stores and displays each action performed allowing you jump to any recent stage
of the image alteration. The alterations should be created during the current working session. After saving or
closing the document, the History palette clears all the contents. Each time you apply a change to an image, the
new state of that image is added to the palette. It is important to know that once you click on any of the previ-
ous stages, all the changes that were made after it will be lost.
History palette
Adjustments
The Adjustment layers palette give you the ability to apply an effect to a group of layers in Photoshop, and then
you can edit that effect later, while preserving the original layers.
