Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between clipping path and masking?
Clipping paths use vector pen tool selections, creating hard-edged selections perfect for products with defined edges. Masking uses pixel-based selections ideal for soft edges like hair, fur, or transparent objects. We choose the right technique based on your subject.
Do you provide paths embedded in PSD files?
Yes! We can deliver layered PSD files with clipping paths embedded as vector paths. This allows you to easily turn paths on/off, modify them, or use them for color adjustments in Photoshop.
Can you create multiple clipping paths?
Absolutely! Multi clipping paths are perfect when you need to change colors of different product parts independently—like changing a shoe's body, sole, and laces separately. We create as many paths as needed.
How do you handle transparent or glass objects?
Transparent objects require image masking rather than simple clipping paths. We use advanced masking techniques to preserve realistic transparency, reflections, and see-through qualities while removing backgrounds.
What file formats do you accept?
We accept all common formats: JPEG, PNG, TIFF, PSD, and even RAW files (CR2, NEF, ARW, DNG). Higher resolution files allow for more precise paths, but we can work with any quality level.
How do you determine complexity level?
Complexity is based on the number of curves, anchor points, holes, and details required. Simple objects with straight edges are basic, while jewelry with many links or furniture with intricate details are complex. We'll assess and quote accurately.
