Create Your Own Copyright Symbol


1. Create a new image by going to File > New. (any size image will do, we used 600x100 pixels for this tutorial).


2.To make a copyright symbol in photoshop (using a pc), select the type tool and select inside of the image you just created.

Make sure the number lock light on your keyboard is on. Hold down the alt key and on the seperate number pad type 0169 then release the alt key.


3. Now type in a copyright notice next to your symbol. Make sure to choose a font that you like.





4. Hide the background layer. Make sure the type layer is still selected. Then select the text by ctrl+clicking on the text layer.

5. Choose Edit > Define Brush Preset and enter a name for your new brush. Click ok.

6. To use the new brush, simply select the brush tool and from the options bar at the top of the screen, pull down the brush menu and scroll to the bottom. Now you can stamp your copyright anywhere you want.
