I’m attempting clean up some JPG images of product for sale. I do not know the technical terms for what I am attempting to do. I wish to eliminate all of the background space. I wish for the file to display only the product as if floating in empty white space.

I am using Adobe Photoshop Limited Edition; I also may use Adobe Illustrator.

Any help is immensely appreciated.

You need to make a selection round the outline of the object, invert the selection, and fill with white. Since Photoshop Limited Edition is pretty ancient I can’t give you detailed instructions.
