Glossary
A text object that can be printed.
printable character
Profiles that describe how printers reproduce colors.
printer profiles
The fineness of detail that a printer can render in an image. It is measured in ink dots per inch (dpi).
printer resolution
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.)
Information about the color space of a device, application, or photo file. An ICC device color profile allows an
profile
image's color data to be converted so that color is reproduced faithfully on that specific device. (See also "color
management" on page 324.)
A process of displaying images on-screen that draws 60 complete frames of video from left to right
progressive scan
every second. Progressive scan creates a cleaner, clearer picture than interlaced video.
A product that you make using your photos in Photoshop Elements. You can create slide shows, album pages,
project
greeting cards, calendars, and more.
The native file format of Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Photoshop Elements.
PSD

rendering

See "tate-chuu-yoko" on page 333.
renmoji
To change the resolution of an image by changing its pixel dimensions. Downsampling is decreasing the
resample
number of pixels, and resampling up (or upsampling) is increasing the number.
A measure of the clarity and sharpness of an image. In digital images, it is measured in pixels per inch. (See
resolution
also "monitor resolution" on page 329 and "printer resolution" on page 331.)
Lets an image be resized without changing its resolution. In a typical bitmap image, pixel
resolution independence
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.
A traditional photographic effect caused by the rapid changing of the film emulsion from hot to cold (hot
reticulation
developer to cold fixer). It produces a random pattern of lines in a photographic image, less fine than craquelure.
