Placing a Photoshop image with Show Import Options
When you place a Photoshop file with multiple layers in Illustrator, you can change image
options when the file is imported. For instance, if you place a Photoshop file (.psd), you can
choose to flatten the image or even to preserve the original Photoshop layers in the file. Next
you’ll place a Photoshop file, set import options, and embed it in the Illustrator file.- In the Layers panel, click the eye icon ( ) for the Pictures layer to hide the content and then
select the Background layer.
