There are a few things you need to know before you can make a great poster in Photoshop. First, you’ll need to find a good stock image or photograph to use as your base. You can find plenty of high quality stock images online, or you can use your own photos. If you’re using your own photos, make sure they’re high resolution so they’ll look good when printed. Next, you’ll need to choose a font for your text. There are plenty of free fonts available online, or you can purchase fonts from sites like Adobe Typekit.

Once you have your image and font selected, open Photoshop and create a new document. If you’re using a stock image, resize it to fit your document. Then, add your text to the document. You can use the text tool to create text boxes, or you can simply click and drag to create text on the canvas. Once you have your text in place, you can style it however you like. You can change the color, add effects like drop shadows or strokes, and even add gradients or patterns. When you’re happy with your design, save your document as a high resolution PDF or JPEG file and print it out!
