Converting line drawing - black line to white line?

True, but that could make something wonky if she puts something behind it.

On the b&w layer go image>adjustments>invert then go to your layer pallet and select the pulldown menu option, change "normal" to "multiply" and place your photo on another layer under it.

It's going over a photo, right? Once it's in place, you can tweak it via curves or levels to eliminate any grays that show up funny. Otherwise, it should work. It's one of those modes I've only used a few times, so maybe I'm missing something.

heya judge, i like ruthless cow's technique. easy, straight ahead, timesaver.

the easiest way to do this is to just goto edit>Define brush preset and then just use the brush to put it over whatever it is you're wanting it on - in white - easy steasy

macthulhu's and mine are basically identical. I'm just a slow typist. What's the file going to be used for?

[judge]

cd art.

Macthulu's way is the best and fastest way. The white stays white and nothing behind it distorts in any way. That's what I always do.
