Do you mean that you want transparency? If so, make sure the black used is RGB 0 0 0 (true black). When you go to convert it into a mat, check 'Transparency On'.

Note: transparency does not work with 16-bit. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/frown.gif]

The question which once haunted my being has been answered. The future is not fixed, and my choices are my own. And yet, how ironic, for I now find, I have no choice at all.

Um, transparency does work in 16 bit, just tick "Mat Transparency" in Mat 16's options, and then convert, it'll make all the pure black transparent.

Snootle, have you actually tried that ever? According to Bobo himself, there are significant problems with 16bit transparencies..
