How to remove a plain background

- Click the background. Raise Tolerance to take in more shades, or turn off Only the touching area to remove that color everywhere.
- Tidy any leftovers with Erase, then save as PNG from Export to keep the transparency.
Good to know
- This works on plain, even backgrounds. Busy scenes such as a room or a street need an AI cut-out tool instead.
- Signatures scanned on white paper usually come out cleanly at a tolerance around 30.
- JPEG cannot store transparency, so save as PNG or WebP.
Questions
Can it remove any background?
It removes areas of similar color. That is ideal for logos, signatures and studio shots, but not for complex scenes.
Why is my result on white or black?
It was saved as JPEG, which has no transparency. Choose PNG or WebP in Export.
Are the edges smooth?
Pixels near the tolerance limit are made partly transparent, which softens the edge.
