How can I add drop shadow to the digitized text handwritten?
I wrote by hand and scanned a text, open in Photoshop CS6 and reversed tones to create white letters on a black background. I made this file in Avid Media Composer and it superimposed on an image using a luma key to key on black. Now, I want to add a small drop shadow to the text to make it more readable when it is bunk. How can I do this in Photoshop before importing the file in Media Composer? I realize I have to use an alpha channel, rather than a luma key, in this case, but I have no idea how to do to create the PS file with shadows on the letters. I think I can learn the procedure to make a layer alpha from online sources. I would be grateful for any guidance.
Without having seen the digitized text I am not sure that the following technique is appropriate. That said, consider this approach, assuming that the scanned manuscript text is on white paper:
1. open the file. The text is the background layer
2 stir its background lock in the trash
3 hold down the command key and click the new layer at the bottom of the layers panel. He will place a white layer under the text layer.
4. the background layer is layer 0. Select layer 0.
5 double-click the layer color 0 in the layers panel to get the layer Style menu area
6 down below is the "Mix" box if are two gray scales. Move the slider to the right of the grey scale top of the page toward the left and the White Book of your scanned text layer will become transparent. Click OK.
7 Cmd + E to combine the layer
8. at this point, you can place a layer below your text layer. Edition > fill with white.
9, return the text layer and - once more the use of the layer-Layer Style - apply the drop shadow. (Clicking the shadow option will provide additional controls.)

CS5 - add drop shadow to the text?
I am trying to add drop shadow to the text, however, I do not see the sign "filters". I don't know how to activate it.
I uploaded a screenshot of my current work space, maybe someone can tell me where to go to activate the window/Panel filters: http://img258.imageshack.us/img258/8669/dropshadow.jpg
You target a player prior to version 8? If so, to activate the filters, you need to change your target Flash Player.

Hello
Can someone help me how can I add a shadow on this photo?
Thanks in advance!
Don't know what it is exactly, but usually you can do this with the fuzzy combination/masking, something like that:
Here image separated from the background, and then filtered with a Low Pass (7 x 7), result hidden, then again filtered with small core for anti-aliasing, then simply added with the original image. You can use VI attached as departure (IMAQ Vision required).

Nice day!
Could you please post a screenshot with the Panel visible layers?
If you are talking about a text layer:
Layer > layer Style > drop shadow
If the letters should cast a shadow on a background,
Layer > layer Style > inner shadow
If the shadow should be in letters.
Kind regards
