Photoshop Help!

How to Save Your Work (VERY Important)
  • Always save your file as you work
  • Use File → Save As the first time
  • Name your file clearly: YourName_ProjectName
  • Example: Kaelah_Design
File Types to Know:
  • .PSD (Photoshop file) → keeps layers (editable)
  • .AI (Illustrator file) → keeps vector work (editable)
  • .JPG → small file size, good for sharing
  • .PNG → high quality, supports transparent background

Tip: Always keep your original file (.PSD or .AI) before exporting!

How to Export Your Design
  • Go to File → Export → Export As
  • Choose PNG or JPG
  • Use PNG if you want better quality or transparency
Save Often
  • Press Ctrl + S (Windows) or Command + S (Mac)
  • Get in the habit of saving every few minutes
Keep Your Files Organized
  • Create a folder for this class called photoshop class

This will save you time and stress later

Layers Are Your Best Friend
  • Always check your Layers Panel
  • Name your layers (ex: “text”, “background”, “image”)
  • This helps you stay organized and edit easily
Undo Is Your Safety Net
  • Press Ctrl + Z (Windows) or Command + Z (Mac)
  • Made a mistake? No problem. Just undo it
Zoom In and Out
