How can I replace images in an array of images in Photoshop, such that the image retains all its properties? I created a layer with an image and skewed the image to have a perspective look. I then duplicated that layer twice. I want to change the images in the other copies without having to manually do it. I tried Tu...
So I tried to combine several vectors of an illustration component and when I flatten them, it doesn't really work. I tried to union them first and then flatten and still doesn't work. Is there maybe something wrong with the way that illustration is created? Many thanks!
I've used the 'mask' effect a few times. But suddenly it no longer works. Even if I create a brand new scene, and just draw something on a layer, using 'b'. Create a new layer, draw a circle, with 'b', then fill it with 'k', when I set this second layer to mask the first, nothing happens. Weirdly, if I 'Preview' the sc...
One thing I don't understand (which would definitely help me to use this function better) is how exactly optical margin alignment really works and what exactly is measured in pt, or when to set what. Do the pt relate to the spacing at the edge for alignment or to the font size or something else entirely? Can someone he...

I used Fontforge to add accents to letters which didn't have any (in a handwriting font called "Austin"). As I'm writing in French I need é, è, etc. I opened the Austin.ttf file, copy-pasted 'e' into the slot for 'é' and added an accent. And so on for the other letters I needed. Then I saved and generated the font. My ...
I wonder if anyone can help with an annoying problem I have when scanning parts of the artwork of albums on compact disc.

I had a large amount of Greek with an audio file of people reading it. I broke both up into phrases to save as pronunciation guides.

The big letters "Allison and Judah" are angled and seemingly ascending. Is this just a simple distort? Does this style have a name?

I am trying to draw Bezier curves using Inkscape 1.2.1 (9c6d41e, 2022-07-14). For some reason, the path produced has straight angles, see the attached picture. I did not have this problem before, and re-installing Inkscape did not help... What can I do to solve this problem? Many thanks!

This path has a long history in larger project. I have cut it out and put here into its own document. Somewhere in the past, when I have been working on this path, I must have put a mask over it, and it has never forgotten that mask. If you look at the properties and appearance, there is no reason for it to look like...
We hired an artist to create a mascot for us in 2D.

This might be a stupid question, but is it not possible to add an empty, transparent layer to a new file without having a different, imported layer in the scene already? Everything is greyed out and I don't understand why I can't just do something like: Add empty layer 1080px1080p.
There are the so-called "custom fonts/typefaces" that are custom designs of fonts that are not available on the market. These are usually comissioned by companies (specially large ones). What are the risks (if any) of designing a font that is close (or even too close) to a custom font design?

is there a way to "tell" Inkscape to apply x/y coordinates on elements (clones of a symbol) instead of transform() when positioning? The known trick with ungrouping/regrouping cannot be applied here since there's no group on the element. background: transforms() statements bloats up final file size unnecessarily. Thank...

we produced a magazine with 136 pages and send for printing. But the number of pages is too much for simple binding. In order to make content readable we would need to add some space on the pages format - we think. But is this the solution, or what would we need to do? Thank you Stephan
