Scanlation Actions Set
Actions for balloon cleaning, and other issues by scanlating comics...
(I hope this is right section of forum - if not, please transfer it elsewhere, please)
This my set of actions is one of ultimate action sets in ex-yu scanlation circles...
If keyboard shortcuts (F-keys) are not used by other actions it will work with those given by me - else make your own setup (double click on action name and change it)...
Or, you can use it in button mode (set on right corner of action panel), so you don't need F keys...
Install: Extract file, so you get "atn" file... Open actions panel in Photoshop. Click on right corner. Chose "Load actions", and browse for extracted content... Chose "scanlation action set.atn", and it should be loaded...
F12 - balloon - ideal for closed balloons - just click with magic wand tool inside balloon and hit the action... Works with multiple selections too (select all balloons than run it)...
Balloon color is based on background color... For example, if you need yellow balloon background, change background color (at the bottom of tool palette) to yellow.
Result: Balloon(s) without text
Shift+F12 - open balloon - similar as first one, but it can clean all types of selection... For example, select open baloon with "magical lasso tool"... You can combine closed and opened balloons... Just don't select anything outside baloons...
F11 - open balloon - cleans opened balloons (with no closed lines)...
It works with any kind of selection.
Selection can be done over lines... doesn't matter... It will not erase picture...
Important is that the text is somewhere around of middle of selection... No need of high precision...
Warning: Works not with multiple selections.
F10 - balloon path - makes path from selection - can be used for making text layers that fit shape of balloon.
Click with magic wand tool inside cleaned balloon, run it, and click again using text tool.
F9 - 300 dpi & clear guides - resolution fix - made too help if you have scans made on different resolutions, and cleans guides left by editing...
If resolutions are different, and you use Photoshop for scanlation, there is problem with text size - other resoluton don't match same size...
You just need to run this simple action by page opening (or scan cleaning process), and it is fixed...
Can be edited to other resolution, but this one should be enough.

Feel free to change it, translate to Turkish (that those who doesn't understand can use it), ask by problems, or anything else...
