Select all the curves of your subject (the flower in my example) Click on “Fx” at the bottom of the Layers panel: Layer Effects (or menu Layer>Layer Effects…) Checks Outer Shadow and opens this settings window Set the Blending mode as you wish (the Multiply mode works great with black shadows) Adjusts the radius of the shadow (the larger it is, the more the shadow will be spread and blurred) Set the shadow offset (which will shift depending on the angle, editable just a little lower) Adjust the intensity (I leave it at 0% in general) Set the opacity (50% I find it good) Check that the "Filling hides the shadow" box is checked (you can test what happens if not :p) Write On August 18, 2022, the world's most famous paper size happily turned 100! In 1922 the German Institute for Standardization (DIN - Deutsches Institut für Normung) issued the standard DIN 476 which defined the standardization of paper dimensions such as A4 and A5.
The dimensions were quickly accepted all over the world and since 2002 they are also determined by the international standard DIN EN ISO 216. The dimension of 21 x 29.7 cm for the A4 sheet did not come about by chance. The image manipulation service who was based on a much older assumption that the dimension of cards to be visually and utilitarianly pleasing to humans should be based on the ratio. Also for practical reasons, this ratio should be applied to an initial dimension which, when divided, always gives a ratio of 1:√2 or 1:1.41 so that the aesthetic result is always the same, regardless of the size of the paper . So this logic was applied to the surface area of a square meter which, when divided in half, can always give the same ratio of 1:Thus, he arrived at an initial dimension A0 which is.

Every time we divide in half (fold) an A0 sheet in its largest dimension, the immediately smaller dimensionis obtained which also follows the ratio 1:√2 and gives us the dimension of the DIN A1 sheet. Continuing the division, after 4 divisions/folds, we reach the dimension of So the number four on sheet A4 is not random either, as it indicates how many times the original sheet A0 was divided.
