In Photoshop Element 18 how do you use the Auto Selection tool to crop the background away from a picture, and then copy and paste just the cropped picture (no background) into a PowerPoint presentation?
After you have your selection from the Auto Selection Tool
1. go to Layer>New>Layer Via Copy (Ctrl or Cmd+J)
2. go to Select>All
3. go to Edit>Copy
4. go to File>New>Blank File and click OK
5. then File>Save As>PNG
6. in PowerPoint go to Insert>Picture
(select the png you saved)
If you try to copy/paste an image into PowerPoint you will end up with the background so that's the reason for saving the image and using insert picture.
