How to make a stamp image transparent
Remove a paper background, preserve the ink edge and prepare a clean stamp image for documents.
Transparency separates ink from paper
A transparent stamp can sit naturally on top of a document without covering the content behind it. The goal is to remove only the paper tone and keep the full ink impression.
Use a clean source image
Start with even lighting and avoid hard shadows across the paper. A clear photo or scan gives the extraction tool a better boundary between the stamp and its background.
Check the edge before downloading
Zoom in and look for pale halos or missing ink texture. A small amount of natural wear is useful, but broken letters reduce readability.
