Cropping irregular shapes
Can someone out there help with what I’m sure is a simple task for those who know Photo Shop -obviously, by my asking the question, I do not.
I have a newspaper article that was scanned and then given to me. I want to manipulate in Photo Shop prior to including it in a slide show. The article headline is 5 columns wide. The desired article beneath is 3 columns wide with the other two columns filed with advertisements and other undesirable material. I am wanting to "crop out" or eliminate those adjoining "undesirable" columns. I cannot do it by using the standard cropping tool – at least with my knowledge.
Help, please, I know this should be an easy task for those in the know – unfortunately I am not such a person.
