I would love to read the article but it does not load.
Thanks
Russell Brown did a great job introducing this feature… I wish he included more details.
If the PDF file didn’t load, please download the Acrobat Viewer and try agin. We did test this article on both PCs and Macs with both browsers (and several versions of those browsers) so it does work.
Thanks,

You’d think RB could have updated this ancient PDF. Didn’t we bury Photohop 5 almost 2 years ago? Maybe he was too busy thinking up stupid jokes?
The article was very informative, however I am not able to print it to keep a copy for easy reference.

Thank you, this was a lifesaver.
The very first instruction says go into Image and select Extract. There is no Extract under Image in Photoshop. This tutorial was a failure from the get-go.
Check the publication date on this article: 2002. The instructions were correct for the version of Photoshop that was current in 2002.
