You can paste an item from the clipboard in
Vanishing Point. The copied item can be from the same document or
a different one. Once pasted into Vanishing Point, the item becomes
a floating selection that you can scale, rotate, move or clone. When
the floating selection moves into a selected plane, it conforms
to the plane’s perspective.

For convenience, it’s recommended that you create
perspective planes in a previous Vanishing Point session.
Copy an item to the clipboard. The copied item
can be from the same or different document. Keep in mind that you
can paste only a raster (not vector) item.
Note: If you’re copying type, select the entire text layer
and then copy to the clipboard. You’ll be pasting a rasterized version
of the type into Vanishing Point.
(Optional) Create a new layer.
Choose Filter > Vanishing Point.
If necessary, create one or more planes in the image.
Press Ctrl‑V (Windows) or Command‑V (Mac OS)
to paste the item.
The pasted item is now a floating selection in the upper
left corner of the preview image. By default, the Marquee tool is
selected.
Use the Marquee tool to drag the pasted image to a plane.
The image conforms to the perspective of the plane.
Important: After pasting the image in Vanishing Point,
do not click anywhere in the image with the Marquee tool except
to drag the pasted image to a perspective plane. Clicking anywhere
else deselects the floating selection and permanently pastes the pixels
into the image.
