pixel
The smallest distinct element of a raster image. The term is a combination of the words
“picture” and “element.”
PostScript
A device-independent page description language that is used to print and display pictures and
text. PostScript 3 includes many enhancements to older versions of PostScript, including
improved image quality and color.
PPD (PostScript Printer Description)
A file containing information about particular PostScript capabilities of the print device.
The information in the PPD is presented via the printer driver.
prepress proof
A print made from a set of film separations or other file to simulate the results of printing.
A prepress proof is the last opportunity to catch problems before the print job goes to press.
presentation graphics rendering
A color rendering intent that creates saturated colors but does not match printed colors
precisely to displayed colors. It is appropriate for bright saturated colors used in illustrations
and graphs.
process colors
The colors used in printing to simulate full-spectrum color images: Cyan, Magenta, Yellow,
blacK (CMYK).
profile
Systematically describes how a color maps to a particular space. By identifying a source profile
and an output profile, you initiate the appropriate workflow to maintain consistent color
values.
R
raster image
Electronic representation of a page or image using a grid of points called pixels.
rendering intent
The style of color rendering, or gamut mapping, designed for a particular type of color job.
An example of a rendering intent is Photographic rendering (also referred to as Image
rendering or Contrast rendering), which is designed for photographic images.
