Print a letter out of a picture?

Course version: I want to make letters from pictures (A4) … How do I do the best without printing the complete picture?

Detailed: I have a picture on the laptop in A4. But I do not want to print the whole picture, but make a letter out of this picture and then make a letter out of several letters.

I could now print out the entire picture and then cut out a letter, but so that I do not have much to print for nothing, I would like to convert the picture into a letter beforehand.

Is that possible and if so how…

Be

With Snipping Tool.

Then edit it accordingly.

But how? I have never done that and am not that well versed

Mo

Create a new layer, clap letters at the appropriate size, select with magic wand, back to the lower level with the image, crop image to the selection or delete inverse selection, delete level with letters again. Finished.

Thank you, I'll give it a try

Have a quick link to an example… Created with Paint.net

Thank you… That's what I thought

Well, I've read that a lot now, but I can't imagine it.

Why do not you take a graphics program and built-in text tool (some paint.net freeware) and print those letters or text you want?

Or. Use a cut-out tool, copy an image part to the clipboard and make a new image out of it. You print that then.

in paint.net the "new image from the clipboard" goes with ctrl + shift + v

In paint.net you click on the hammer, that opens the toolbar. If you click on the frame there, then the marker is. To the right of this the icon allows to cut, alternatively ctrl + x.

To mark an irregular uniformly colored form such as a letter, the rectangular selection tool is unsuitable. That's why I recommended the wand.

Arrives on the background. If you use the writing tool in front of a white or transparent background, it does not matter if you use the rectangle as a selection. The expression is color on white.

Personally, I find the wand sophisticated, because you can adjust a lot.

No, it does not matter. It's about applying the irregular shape to the background layer.
