Id like to make this text transparent so I can use a layer of a gradient below it

I cant individually use the magic wand because that would take hours, and besides that ruins the anti aliasing

If anyone has any other alternative ways to accomplish this other than just paint.net let me know. Thanks! 😁

Assuming your text is over a uniform background.....

  1. Select the background with Magic Wand :MagicWandTool: and the Shift key held down (this selects all of the background including the bits inside closed characters)
  2. Invert the selection with Ctrl+ I
