Thank you both for your tips.

I wasn't actually paying attention to the antialiasing/feather options
so it is useful to know to keep them unchecked when performing this
procedure.

To David: The steps you describe don't seem to help with my specific
problem of flattening against a background image because Threshold
Alpha seems to only work with a solid black background. Thanks anyway
though.

cheers,
Justyn
