Changing the elements of a digital image is possible with the use of Adobe Photoshop, a digital-imaging application. Manipulating and retouching photos, adding shadows and filling objects with color are just a few of the tasks Photoshop can accomplish. Sometimes spicing up text can make a document more visually appealing. Adding a simple border to text can be accomplished in just a few steps.
