Select the Space you want to work in.

Select Content.

Select the design you want to edit.

Select Layers.

Make sure that the background layer contains the background and other layers contain the foreground.
​
​Note: If a design has an AI Background, the background layer has the entire image, including the foreground object. But there should also be a separate layer that also contains the foreground object.
​

If your image has the background on one layer and foreground objects on separate layers, select Done to close the Layer settings. Continue from step 6.
​
If your entire image is on a single layer, you will need to export it as an image and then re-import it. For details, see the troubleshooting information at the end of this article.
​

Select the Background layer.

Select Erase.
​
Photoroom erases the background layer so that it is empty. Visually, this has the same effect as applying a transparent background.
​

[Optional] Use the editor to make further changes, such as add text, shadows, graphics, and more.
