Don’t flatten.
Do you want to save the Path or a selection made from the Path. or a selected image or part of an image? All different questions and different methods.
If, as I suspect, you want to save a part of an image that is on a Layer go to the Layers palette and choose Duplicate Layer from the flyout arow. You can save it as a new document from there.
That’s one way.
Save it in a format that supports transparency.
Is that even possible with Publisher? Or do you need a Clipping Path?
Ed, Thanks for your reply. On my screen i have a selected image on a layer. The background is transparent. I can save it as a tiff which give s me the option to save transparency. I guess publisher doesn’t support the transparency as i get the white background when i load it into publisher. What is a clipping path and how can i create one? Thanks, Owen
Ed, I just figured it out. Thanks for your help. Owen
make selection in area you want to make trasparent . go to selection menu and from save selection sub menu save your selection .
now go save for web in file menu . here beneath the preset you choose gif format . ok now save and see result
