I thought I knew most things about Photoshop 5.5 – but I am lost trying
what
should be a simple thing.

I have a black line drawing on a white background and I want to invert it
so
that the background is black and drawing is white, in other words, a negative image. I have searched through the filters and menus and am
really
stuck. Seems crazy that this should be so hard to do when I have such a powerful image program.

Anyone???
