Assignment #1: Digital Imaging
Raster
Raster files are perfect for complex images such as photographs and are widely
compatible file formats. These consist of pixels that are arranged in a grid formation to represent
an image (“Raster graphics | computer science | Britannica,” 2021). Unlike vectors, when
enlarged, these lose detail and become increasingly blurry.
Common raster file extensions are:
JPG (Joint Photographic Experts Group)
● Compressed raster format
● Universal file format
PNG (Portable Network Graphics)
● Good for illustrations or icons
● Supports transparency
TIFF (Tagged Image File Format)
● Best for high-resolution printing
● Great for professional print use
● Large file size
