How to remove background of a photo without removing small text

[nsherris]

Hello, I was wondering if there is an easy what to remove the background of a photo without removing the small text. The text is small and is merged with the background. I do not want the text to be removed when selecting the image. Is there any easy way to ensure this? PS Im using mac.

Hello nsherris and welcome to the Affinity forums🙂
An easy way? Probably not from the sounds of it. But we really need to see what you have to work with.
As you have only just joined here you possibly need to make a post or two more before you can attach things to your post. Not sure?

Hi,

It will depend of the contrast between text and background. Sometimes it's possible, sometimes it's better to recreate the background and retype text on it.

Would it be an idea to remove everything and then type the text again?

If you can give us an example of (at least) one of the images and tell us what you consider as "background" we might be able to give you some more-specific advice.
As markw said above, if you show us what you have got then we can advise further.
