Inserting Images in a Document

You can use Photoshop's Place command to insert artwork into an open document. To increase your control of the new image information, Photoshop places the new image into a separate layer. Photoshop lets you place files in PDF, Adobe Illustrator, and EPS formats. When you first place a vector-based image into Photoshop, you have the ability to modify the width, height, and rotation as a pure vector image. However, since Photoshop is primarily a raster program, when you finalize your changes, Photoshop rasterizes the file information (converts the vector into pixels), and saves it as a Smart Object (). Which means you cannot edit the placed documents as you would a vector shape or path.

Insert an Image in a Document Using the Place Command

Open a Photoshop document.

Click the

File menu, and then click

Place .

Select the document you want to place into the active document.

Click

Place .

Photoshop places the image in a new layer, directly above the active layer, and then encloses it within a free-transform bounding box.

Control the shape by manipulating the corner and side nodes of the freeform bounding box.

Press Enter (Win) or Return (Mac) to rasterize the image at the resolution of the active document.
