Presentation Outline

Part 1: Background
Image file formats two types raster and vector
o Image files are compressed using a compression algorithm. Different algorithms have
different characteristics. Some take advantage of how simple or complex an image is to
determine file size.
o Lossless compression preserves an exact copy of the image, and lossy compression
perseveres a representation of the original but it may not be exact.
o Raster formats use a bitmap literally a map of bits (1s and 0s) for each pixel. The bit
depth (number of bits per pixel) determines the number of colors that can be used for
each pixel.
o Raster formats are more common.
JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group)
TIFF (Tagged Image File Format)
GIF (Graphics Interchange Format)
BMP (Windows bitmap)
PNG (Portable Network Graphics)
o Vector formats store a list of vectors file size varies with complexity, not resolution
because vector formats are scalable
SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics)
AI (Adobe Illustrator)
Part 2: Microsoft Paint:
Talk about everything in the menu bar (theres not that much)
Paint is a small but powerful program
o Resize image of apple
o Remove leaf
o Add caption and arrow
Part 3: Microsoft Office Word:
Insert the picture (right click, insert menu, drag-and-drop)
Position, wrapping text
Cropping, (can be done in paint first)
Edge effects (better for square picture)
Opacity (washout in 03, recolor in 07, washout in 13)
Watermark (design menu)
Picture borders
Aligning images
Stacking images groups
Combing multiple images into one image
Quick side note: default application for opening images is Microsoft Photo Viewer. It cant do anything
except rotate photos. This application is best for going through a large number of image files.
