How do I open a duplicate document in Photoshop CS?

[sheana2002]

I;m sorry if this is a really stupid question, but how do I open an exact duplicate, ore create an exact duplicate, of a drawing in Photoshop? I need to edit out some objects, but I want to keep the original. Thanks in advance.

You want to keep it as a separate file or as a Layer?

• Image > Duplicate

• Layer > Duplicate Layer

As a separate file. Thanks for the help!

• Image > Duplicate (then save the image)

Or duplicate the file in the Finder.
