Picture Perfect! Look Ma No Photoshop - How To Prepare Digital Images For Non-Technical Users Summary
| Most companies and organizations rely on a dedicated publishing and graphic arts team to execute their visual work, and even many professionals take advantage of the costly skills of a dedicated graphic designer or Photoshop artist. The need for enriching content through effective visual displays, maps, diagrams, statistical graphs and illustrations has only increased over time. The ability though, to identify the right graphic file format, the correct resolution and the appropriate compression level has greatly prevented the layman and non-technical communicator from having been able to work and take advantage of this technology-based communication potential. There is too much to know and, apparently, the tools required to do the job are big, bloated applications, cost a lot of money, and they have a pretty steep learning curve. Even the cheaper alternatives like Paint Shop Pro are pretty intimidating to the non-technical user as they also present way too many controls and options. This Mini-Guide is meant to provide simple to follow concepts and practical techniques to prepare, edit and optimize digital images for publication without being a technical user and without having to own any expensive software. The results, quality and precision that can be obtained with the tools and techniques suggested to use are not professionally comparable to those of a highly skilled and well equipped digital image editor. Nonetheless, they do allow non-technical staff to prepare, edit and compose electronic images for final use on the Web, in presentations and low cost printouts (flyers, small posters, etc.) in an effective, fast, and professional-looking way. |
