Answer
Hiya Arum,

It’s easy!

. First make sure your file has vivid colors i.e. Black and white (text black and background white, if not make it just to get the selection)

. Now double click on your background layer to make it editable layer (it should be layer 0 afterwards)

. Select a small part of your file's white area (or black area)

. Go to Select > Similar.

since you have get the selection of all your area you chose, if its text you choose, select inverse and delete the white area, if its other way around, cut the text and paste it on to another page to see the result.


Hope this will solve your question. Feel free to ask anything further
