Masking an object with text
In this section, you'll create a mask in the shape of text for another image you place. In
order to create a mask from text, the text needs to be on top of the image, as you'll see.
1.
With the Selection tool ( ) selected, drag the leaf image (Text.psd) from off the
right side of the artboard on top of the “ISLE” text.
Note
If the Text.psd image is not as wide as the “ISLE” text, make sure you res-
ize the image, holding down the Shift key to constrain the proportions.
2.
Choose Object > Arrange > Send To Back. You should see the “ISLE” text now.
Make sure that the image is positioned roughly like you see in the figure.
