				Hi, 
 
 
How do I get rid of the white background from the image to import to Illustrator?
 
I heard that... there is a option called something like 'save as line art' which will turn white background to transparent. 
 
I will appreciate any help,.. 
 
Even just find out 'there isn't anything like that option' will be great.
 
 
Thanks,  |

				Make a new layer and copy the background layer into it
 
Use the magic wand to select all the white area. Delete it
 
Delete background layer. Save in PS or tiff format,
 
Voila

				Thank you for your help.  What you describe is what I have been doing and trying to find out 'shortcut' export as line art (something like that) if it exist.....
