3. Text

4. Text--Processing Software A Word Processor is a software application that provides the user with the tools to create and edit text.

5. Microsoft Office: Word

6. Open Office Writer

7. Formatting

8. .PDF Portable Document Format (PDF) is a file format created by Adobe Systems in 1993 for document exchange. Nowadays most word processors give the user the option of converting a file into.pdf

9. .PDF

10. .RTF The Rich Text Format (often abbreviated RTF) is a proprietary document file format with published specification developed by Microsoft Corporation since 1987 for Microsoft products and for cross-platform document interchange.

11. .TXT.txt is a file format for files consisting of text usually containing very little formatting (ex: no bolding or italics).

12. Typography/Fonts A computer font is an electronic data file containing a set of glyphs, characters, or symbols such as dingbats. Although the term font first referred to a set of metal type sorts in one style and size, since the 1990s most fonts are digital, used on computers.

13. Graphics

14. Albums Is a Web 2.0 application where you can but personal photographs for others to see. Facebook and myspace along with other websites offer online albums.

15. Albums

16. Animation Animation is the rapid display of a sequence of images of 2-D or 3-D artwork or model positions in order to create an illusion of movement

17. Animation

18. 3D 3D computer graphicsare graphics that use a three-dimensional representation of geometric data that is stored in the computer for the purposes of performing calculations and rendering 2D images.

19. 3D

20. Bitmap In computer graphics, a bitmap or pixmap is a type of memory organization or image file format used to store digital images. The term bitmap comes from the computer programming terminology, meaning just a map of bits, a spatially mapped array of bits.

21. Vector Vector graphics is the use of geometrical primitives such as points, lines, curves, and shapes or polygon(s), which are all based on mathematical equations, to represent images in computer graphics.

22. Vector/Bitmap

23. Photo Editing Photo editing is the process of changing a certain picture through the use of a software application such as Adobe Photoshop.

24. Photo Editing

25. Simulation Simulation is the imitation of something real. The act of simulating something generally entails representing certain key characteristics or behaviors of a selected physical or abstract system through the use of a model.

26. Bit Depth Color depth or bit depth, is a computer graphics term describing the number of bits used to represent the color of a single pixel in a bitmapped image or video frame buffer

27. Layers Layers are used in digital image editing to separate different elements of an image. A layer can be compared to a transparency on which imaging effects or images are applied and placed over or under an image.

28. Allignment In typesetting and page layout, alignment or range, is the setting of text flow or image placement relative to a page, column (measure), table cell or tab. The type alignment setting is sometimes referred to as text alignment, text justification or type justification.

29. Resolution Resolution is the number of pixels per square inch on a computer-generated display; the greater the resolution, the better the picture.

30. Resolution

31. Pixels In digital imaging, a pixel (or picture element) is a single point in a raster image. The pixel is the smallest addressable screen element, it is the smallest unit of picture which can be controlled. Each pixel has its own address. The address of a pixel corresponds to its coordinates

32. DPI (dots per inch) The amount of pixels in one inch. For print, image files are optimized at 300 DPI. For the Web (GIF and JPEG file formats), files are optimized at 72 DPI.

33. JPG JPEG (named after the Joint Photographic Experts Group who created the standard) is a commonly used method of lossy compression for photographic images.

34. GIF The Graphics Interchange Format (GIF) is a bitmap image format that was introduced by CompuServe in 1987 and has since come into widespread usage on the World Wide Web due to its wide support and portability. A GIF is capable of showing 256 colours (8 bits per pixel).

35. TIFF Tagged Image File Format (abbreviated TIFF) is a file format for storing images, including photographs and line art. This is the most common and compatible form of digital stock photo format. This format is uncompressed but gives the highest quality output.

36. CGI Computer-generated imagery (also known as CGI) is the application of the field of computer graphics or, more specifically, 3D computer graphics to special effects in films, television programs, commercials, simulators and simulation generally, and printed media
