Clipping Path done Cheap
By Linda | April 20, 2008
Clipping Path is a method where you mask out a part of an Image
The Clipping Path is a vector path which allows part of an image to show while hiding the rest (usually its background) effectively rendering part of the image transparent.
Clipping Path
A Image Path is a means to make parts of an image opaque and parts of an image transparent. Usually it is used to ”get rid of” the background.
It is also a way of changing the rectangular-shaped boundary of a bitmap image into a shape of your choice. Image Paths are made with the pen tool in Photoshop. The path itself is a vector object, while the image is a bitmap.
Together, the vector path and the bitmap image can be exported as an EPS file - a file format which is capable of having both vector and bitmap data in the same image.JPG files are a bit limited though – since JPG files does not support Transparency – so the background can only be a uniform color.
The resulting file can be placed directly into a page layout document such as one created in QuarkXPress™ or Adobe® PageMaker®. It can also be embedded (or linked) in a vector drawing file such as one created with Adobe Illustrator®, Macromedia® FreeHand® or CorelDRAW®.
The operation of Removing the Background can be a time consuming enterprise. It can take anything from 1 minute – to 8 to 10 hours. So in recent years it has become popular to outsource the job to specialists in other countries, to a lot lower cost than you can do it yourself.
Clipping Path
We took uClip for a test and did 10 images and the results was great.
The advantage with uClip is there is no guessing of what the price will be, since all images are done at one price, no matter how complicated the images is.
There are a lot of Remove Background providers out there – but not many with uClips credentials. uClip delivers to most of the largest Northern European publishers.
The price was not the lowest – but the quality was worth it. I will never be able to do the same job in that quality and price. I can recomend them.
