I apologize in advance for frequently posting questions, but I am very new to TeX and its offspring.
My question is: I like to create layers for text, images and background elements as in InDesign or Photoshop. Is it possible?
Thanks,
Charis

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.
And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Layers for Text, Images and Backgrounds
Hi Charis,
you could consider the page and boxes such as minipage environments and \parbox boxes as layers. Boxes can be placed somewhere and are allowed to overlap. If you mean transparency - well, LaTeX is not a graphics program.
However, pgf and it's front-end TikZ provide layers and transparancy and can be used in LaTeX.
