USING PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 10 331 Glossary printable character A text object that can be printed. printer profiles Profiles that describe how printers reproduce colors. printer resolution The fineness of detail that a printer can render in an image. It is measured in ink dots per inch (dpi). Generally a resolution of 240 dpi provides good results when you print high-quality photos on an inkjet printer. (See also "resolution" on page 331 and "monitor resolution" on page 329.) profile Information about the color space of a device, application, or photo file. An ICC device color profile allows an image's color data to be converted so that color is reproduced faithfully on that specific device. (See also "color management" on page 324.) progressive scan A process of displaying images on-screen that draws 60 complete frames of video from left to right every second. Progressive scan creates a cleaner, clearer picture than interlaced video. project A product that you make using your photos in Photoshop Elements. You can create slide shows, album pages, greeting cards, calendars, and more. PSD The native file format of Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Photoshop Elements. Q Quick Mask A mask channel created in Quick Mask mode in Photoshop. Photoshop Elements has no Quick Mask mode and flattens all channels in Photoshop images. QuickTime Software from Apple that allows you to view movies and other multi-media files on your computer. R RAID Redundant Array of Independent Disks, a category of disk drives that use two or more drives at the same time to improve performance and ensure a graceful response in the event of a hardware or software failure. raster image See "bitmap image" on page 322. rasterizer The engine in Photoshop Elements that converts vector data, such as text, to bitmap data. red eye The reflection of the camera flash from the retina of a photographed subject, resulting in a red dot in the subject's eye. You can eliminate it automatically when you import images or by using the Red Eye Removal tool. Rename Multiple Files Allows you to automatically rename several files at once. Available with the Process Multiple Files command. rendering Converting a vector layer such as a shape layer or a text layer into a normal layer. To convert a vector layer into a normal layer, choose Layer > Simplify Layer. renmoji See "tate-chuu-yoko" on page 333. resample To change the resolution of an image by changing its pixel dimensions. Downsampling is decreasing the number of pixels, and resampling up (or upsampling) is increasing the number. resolution A measure of the clarity and sharpness of an image. In digital images, it is measured in pixels per inch. (See also "monitor resolution" on page 329 and "printer resolution" on page 331.) resolution independence Lets an image be resized without changing its resolution. In a typical bitmap image, pixel resolution is fixed, so if you enlarge the image, quality is reduced. With resolution independence, however, an image isn't rendered into pixels until it is simplified or printed. reticulation A traditional photographic effect caused by the rapid changing of the film emulsion from hot to cold (hot developer to cold fixer). It produces a random pattern of lines in a photographic image, less fine than craquelure. Last updated 1/2/2012
