Templates in photo shop HELP

[pitkin2020]

If I understand you, you want a template like this for example but then you bring in a square image to go underneath but you only want it to print the template outline of the image and not whats outside the template??

LOL I was going to say the same thing but I don't know how to do it photoshop. I find all of adobe products unintuitive.

sorry I knew that i would mislead everybody with my poor example and chose of crap descriptions. I have various sizes of metal that I wish to print on. The coaster with a layer that you can see the shape and size. I really sorry I know this makes no sense if fact worse.

Thank you Paul, I will have a play tomorrow , to night I have to unpick a embroidery polo that's gone wrong, it will all take all night, have to do it order due in tomorrow at noon. Plus the dam picker is blunt. I understand the principal of the template, but if your looking to a set size how does it work then. Once again thank you

size of what Jenny?

Thanks Paul I was up at 6 this morning trying, I did it, I had trouble making a perfect circle but I'm sure that will come with practice. I put the grid on the template so I could cut a 4 by 4 square
for a circle I shall draw around the item then use the tool. I'm very sure that I will not be the only one using your video to learn Many many thanks Jenny

For perfect circle in photoshop hold shift while making circle. This way wont go oval.
