How do I make jpeg image background transparent?

Hi
You can insert jpg picture without backgroud. You must:
I. In Photoshop:
1. Create path by "pen tool".
2. Copy this path by "path selection tool".
II. In Illustrator:
1. Place jpg picture.
2. Paste path by CTRL C (PC) or cmd C (Mac).
3. Select picture and path by selection tool.
4. Create clipping mask (cmd 7 or menu/object/clipping mask/make)
5. In this way you will get jpg without background.
