- 2. FILE TYPES - JPG JPG is a file extension for a lossy graphics file. The JPEG file extension is used interchangeably with JPG. JPEG stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group who created the standard. JPG files have 2 sub-formats, JPG/Exif (often used in digital cameras and photographic equipment), and JPG/JFIF (often used on the World Wide Web). The JPEG standard specifies the codec, which defines how an image is compressed into a stream of bytes and decompressed back into an image, but not the file format used to contain that stream. The Exif and JFIF standards define the commonly used formats for interchange of JPEG-compressed images. A JPG file consists of a sequence of segments, each beginning with a marker, each of which begins with a 0xFF byte followed by a byte indicating what kind of marker it is. Some markers consist of just those two bytes; others are followed by two bytes indicating the length of marker-specific payload data that follows. JPG files can be opened by most image editing software, from Microsoft Paint to Adobe Photoshop. http://whatis.techtarget.com/fileformat/JPG-JPEG-bitmap
- 3. The TFF file extension is initially made for the capable versions of Macintosh operating systems. Under the said platform, files of the TFF format are defined as TrueType Font, which are modules containing alphabet character sets to be used under its text generating applications. However, due to its wide utility, this system is adapted by Microsoft for its Windows operating system, making the TFF file format function under a cross platform performance between the two mentioned operating systems. Under Apple, the TFF file format is strictly only of TrueType Font utility. This library stores the representation of the alphabet characters, including numbers, symbols and punctuations. Font styles from Macintosh vary from the available sets for Windows. Files stored under the TFF format can be resized on the screen, according to the display and manifesting preference of the user. Aside from the main values of the stored characters, one module with the TFF extension also contains directions on how the character's dimension are changed under the basic sizes (small, medium, large) or any desired size that are created in between the possible character dimensions. The TFF file format is also used in storing vector fonts. Files with this extension are good both for screen display and printing. Under Windows, the sector concerned with the TFF file format's performance belongs under the Fonts folder in the Control Panel. Aside from the TrueType font utility of the TFF file format, this library is also used as a Tactical Fill File for form content modules under a certain application for Windows. For the said utility, the TFF file extension is given to files capable of self- execution once its corresponding dialogue case are summoned by the system. http://errordecoder.com/file-extensions/T/TFF.html FILE TYPES - TFF
- 4. FILE TYPES - PNG PNG (pronounced ping as in ping-pong; for Portable Network Graphics) is a file format for image compression thahttp://searchsoa.techtarget.com/definition/PNGt, in time, is expected to replace the Graphics Interchange Format (GIF) that is widely used on today's Internet. Owned by Unisys, the GIF format and its usage in image-handling software involves licensing or other legal considerations. (Web users can make, view, and send GIF files freely but they can't develop software that builds them without an arrangement with Unisys.) The PNG format, on the other hand, was developed by an Internet committee expressly to be patent-free. It provides a number of improvements over the GIF format. http://searchsoa.techtarget.com/definition/PNG
- 5. Short for "Bitmap." It can be pronounced as "bump," "B-M-P," or simply a "bitmap image." The BMP format is a commonly used raster graphic format for saving image files. It was introduced on the Windows platform, but is now recognized by many programs on both Macs and PCs. The BMP format stores colour data for each pixel in the image without any compression. For example, a 10x10 pixel BMP image will include colour data for 100 pixels. This method of storing image information allows for crisp, high-quality graphics, but also produces large file sizes. The JPEG and GIF formats are also bitmaps, but use image compression algorithms that can significantly decrease their file size. For this reason, JPEG and GIF images are used on the Web, while BMP images are often used for printable images. http://techterms.com/definition/bmp FILE TYPES - BMP
- 6. A .PSD file is a layered image file used in Adobe Photoshop. PSD, which stands for Photoshop Document, is the default format that Photoshop uses for saving data. PSD is a proprietary file that allows the user to work with the images’ individual layers even after the file has been saved. When an image is complete, Photoshop allows the user to flatten the layers and convert the flat image into a .JPG, .GIF, .TIFF or other non-proprietary file format so it can be shared. Once a PSD image has been flatten by conversion, however, it cannot be converted back to PSD and the user can no longer work with the image's layers. It is important, therefore, so always save the .PSD file and not overwrite it during conversion. http://whatis.techtarget.com/fileformat/PSD-Adobe- Photoshop-default FILE TYPES -PSD
- 7. AI is a file extension for a vector graphics file format used in an Adobe Illustrator drawing. Adobe Illustrator is a popular vector graphics-based drawing program. The AI format is a strictly limited, highly simplified subset of EPS. AI stands for Adobe Illustrator. http://whatis.techtarget.com/fileformat/AI- Adobe-Illustrator-drawing FILE TYPES -AI
- 8. WMF is a file extension for a graphics file used with Microsoft Windows. WMF stands for Windows MetaFile. WMF files can contain both vector and bitmap image information. WMF files were 16-bit when initially included with Windows 3.0. WMF files can be opened by Microsoft Word, PowerPoint or Publisher. http://whatis.techtarget.com/fileformat/WMF- Metafile-Microsoft-Windows FILE TYPES - WMF
- 9. Adobe Photoshop is the predominant photo editing and manipulation software on the market. Its uses range from full featured editing of large batches of photos to creating intricate digital paintings and drawings that mimic those done by hand. http://www.washington.edu/itconnect/learn/work shops/online-tutorials/graphics-and-design- workshops/adobe-cs/photoshop/ PHOTOSHOP
- 10. Adobe Illustrator is a program used by both artists and graphic designers to create vector images. These images will then be used for company logos, promotional uses or even personal work, both in print and digital form. So what is Adobe Illustrator used for? It is typically used to create illustrations, charts, graphs, logos, diagrams, cartoons of real photographs, and more. While the program may be difficult to understand initially, the final product will be well worth the learning curve. https://blog.udemy.com/what-is-adobe- illustrator-used-for/ ILLUSTRATOR
