Cropping/Users Manual Adobe Photoshop Elements

[Sheila Crawford]

I took a course at the Teaching Learning Center where they showed us a sony camera and gave us a Adobe Photoshop Elements CD. There was no user's manual. I am trying to crop a photo of a person, showing head rather than the whole picture. I can select and get the ants marching. Where is the crop button?

How can I get a user's manual?

I am using the microsoft photo editor because I can get nothing out of this CD.

Sheila,

Use the crop tool instead of the selection. It has anchors to let you
resive / refine your selection. Much better. And also, it will put a black
area around the selection, to let you have a better look at the finishes
work. The crop tool is the third tool, in the tool box, on the right, from
the top.

The manual might be on the CD, depending on the version. Look on your
installation CD, at the root. If your CD drive letter is D:, then look in
D:\

Hope this helps, if not, write again!

Shiela,

You're using MS Editor because you can get nothing out of the CD. What does that mean? Were you able to install PSE?

Forgot to mention that the Quick Reference Card is on the CD as well, for
those who uses Elements shortcuts extensively in here :)

Ray or anyone,

Now I am wondering...I ask because my manual met with a fatal accident only a couple of days after I bought PSE and therefore I had no experience with it...the manual isn't just a compilation of all the help files is it??

Nancy,

No it's not. The topics are the same, but the text is different. It covers
the same things, though.
