Glad you’ve found it helpful ^_^

For SFX that get cut off, first make a duplicate layer and hide one of the copies. This is for safekeeping in case you make a mistake. For the layer that is still visible, right click on the layer and choose “Rasterize Layer.” Now you can treat it like normal and use the Eraser Tool. This is good if you need to add a filter or something like that, too.

I really love this guide. It pretty much covers everything that`s needed to be a typesetter, in my opinion. Without this guide, I don’t think I would’ve made it into my scanlation group.

I was wondering how to put some of an SFX text behind, say, a person’s head? I’m not very good in the technical department (Luckily, TSers don’t need a lot of tech. skills), so I was hoping for an answer from you. XD How to do it could be a good addition to this guide? … Or is that too advanced for an intro to typesetting guide?

Thank you for the guide!

Thank you very much for the nice tutorial. I’ve been struggling with those texts for some time and it’s just nice to get more and more information on how to manage those texts better. Besides, like it or not, words are just far too important to be ignored ^^
