| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| bitmap | a set of bits that represent a graphic image, with each bit or group of bits corresponding to a pixel in the image |
| feather | the process of softening the edges of an image in the foreground so that it blends into the background image with less contrast. |
| CMYK | a color image made up of color in the cyan, magenta, yellow and black channels. used for printing full color on an offset press. |
| filter | created special effects that maybe applied to an image or image layer. |
| flatten | irreversible process that combines all layers and reduces the file size. |
| GIF file format | graphics interchange format. format for storing bit-map graphics data which uses a lossless technique to compress the data. lossless compression reduces the file size without losing any of the data about the image. |
| gradients | 2 or more colors that gradually blend into each other |
| grayscale | a scale of acromatic colors having several gradations ranging from white to black |
| high resolution | image contains a high pixel count, resulting in a higher quality image. |
| JPG (JPEG) file format | Joint Photographic Experts Group. name of the committee that developed the format. |
| layer | working surface of a photoshop image, like a transparent sheet that sorts the paint and effects. |
| low resolution | a low pixel count in an image resulting in a low quality image. |
| magic wand tool | a selection tool that selects pixels with similar values to the pixel that the artist clicks on. |
| mask | the area around the mask is protected from the change and the area of the mask may be changed. the mask itself cannot be printed but a masked image can be printed. |
| merge | to group one or more layers or objects in a layer together. |
| mode | the color structure of an image. examples are CMYK, RGB, Grayscale or indexed. |
| palette | the basic photoshop tool icons that help you modify and monitor images. each palette performs a specific function and may be positioned and resized as desired. |

| RAW file format | raw data format, can't be used in photoshop and could not be printed or modified |
| resampling | changing the number of pixels in a graphic file to match the new screen area occupied by the image; this changes the size of the graphic file. |
| resolution | # of pixels per square inch on a computer-generated display |
| RGB | a color image made up of color in the Red, Green, and Blue Channels. Often used when printing digital color. |
| select | to choose an object so that you can manipulate it in some way |
| swatch | a preset group of colors on a palette. |

| TIF (TIFF) file format | files that are used for storing bitmap images. this format is commonly used in multimedia applications. |
| toolbar | at the top or bottom of the screen, displays buttons you can click to quickly choose a command. |
| vector graphic | an image that uses geometrical primitives such as points, lines, curves, and polygons to represent images. this type of graphic is scalable and does not pixelize. |
| workspace | area within photoshop program window that includes the entire window, from the command menus at the top of your screen to the status bar at the bottom. |
| selection made to preserve colors when converting images | don't flatten |
| # of channels in the color modes: in bitmap, grayscale, duotone, indexed color | 1 |
| # of channels in the color modes: RGB, lab, multichannel | 3 |
| # of channels in the color modes: CMYK, multichannel | 4 |
| bitmap color | pixels are either 100% black or 100% white. |
| bitmap color mode defined | color mode that has no layers, filters or adjustment commands available. must convert to grayscale first |
| grayscale | black, white, or up to 254 shades of gray. can be duotone, tritone, quadtone. |
| converting to this colormode saves the luminosity (light and dark) values of the picture but permanently deletes the color. | grayscale |
| indexed color | contains just one channel and a max number of 256 colors or shades in an 8-bit color table. |
| RGB color | most versatile mode. mode in which digital cameras save your photos; only mode all photoshop tool options and filters are accessible; and the mode of choice for exporting to the web, cells, video, multimedia programs, and most inkjet printers |
| CMYK | for commercial printing. edit docs in RGB then convert. |
| lab color | 3 channel mode, developed to acheive consistency among various devices such as printers and displays. these files are device independent. |
| multi channel | contains multiple 256-level grayscale channels (RGB-MC = RBG-CMY) |
