Hello Robert, just show the alpha channel inside GraphicConverter and edit it.

Thanks Thorsten, I have edited the alpha channel and tried to apply it and flatten it etc. Nothing I tried seems to turn the transparent area black.

One simple way is to create a "new image" the same size and make it all black.  Then cut/paste the original over it.

David, You're right it did work as did the Photoshop Elements Layers but there should be a command in GrapgicConverter. On Feb 2, 2013, at 1:03 PM, "David L.
