Use of computers to produce visual
images, or the images so produced. Creating computer graphics requires
a digital computer to store and manipulate images, a display screen, input/output
devices, and specialized software that enables the computer to draw, color,
and manipulate images held in memory. Common computer graphic formats
include GIF and JPEG, for single images, and MPEG and Quicktime, for multiframe
images. The field has widespread use in business,
scientific research, and entertainment. Monitors attached to CAD/CAM systems
have replaced drafting boards. Graphic design services, digital posters

The art and profession of selecting and arranging visual elements—such
as typography, images, symbols, and colours—to convey a message
to an audience. Sometimes graphic design is called “visual communications.”
It is a collaborative discipline: writers produce
words and photographers and illustrators create images that the designer
incorporates into a complete visual message. Although graphic design has
been practiced in various forms throughout history, it emerged as a specific
profession during the job-specialization process that occurred in the
late 19th century. Its evolution has been
closely bound to developments in image making, typography, and reproduction
processes. Prominent graphic designers include Jules Chéret, Piet
Zwart, Paul Rand, Alexey Brodovitch, Milton Glaser, and David Carson. |

Format for Printing E-Mail this Article Cite this Article. DTP allows
an individual to combine text, numerical data, and graphic elements in
a document that can be output on a printer or a phototypesetter.
A typical DTP system includes a personal computer,
a high-resolution printer, and input devices such as an optical scanner.
Text and graphic elements are commonly created or manipulated with several
separate software programs and then combined with a page-makeup
program. Powerful DTP programs offer full-featured graphics capabilities.

the file size. The original version of the format was developed by CompuServe
in 1987. The current version supports animated GIFs (a graphics
image that moves). GIF and JPEG are the most commonly used graphics formats
on the Internet. JPEG in full Joint Photographic Experts Group Standard
computer file format for storing graphic images in a compressed
form for general use. JPEG images are compressed using a mathematical
algorithm. A variety of encoding processes can be used, depending on whether
the user's goal is the highest quality of image (lossless) or smallest
file size (lossy). The JPEG and GIF formats are the most commonly used
graphics formats on the Internet for lossy and lossless data compression,
respectively. Graphic design services digital
