About
File Types
Our
electronic publishing services are equally advanced in both Macintosh
and PC platforms, using many of today's most popular software applications.
There
are many different types of file formats available.
The
below content is for informational purposes only.
Tagged-Image File Format (TIFF)
Tagged-Image File Format (TIFF) is a flexible bitmap image format supported
by virtually all paint, image-editing, and page-layout applications.
Also, virtually all desktop scanners can produce TIFF images.
TIFF format supports CMYK, RGB, Lab, indexed-color, and grayscale images
with alpha channels and Bitmap-mode images without alpha channels. Photoshop
7 TIFF information.
EPS
Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) language file format can contain both
vector and bitmap graphics and is supported by virtually all graphic,
illustration, and page-layout programs. EPS format is used to transfer
PostScript-language artwork between applications. When you open an EPS
file containing vector graphics, Photoshop rasterizes the image, converting
the vector graphics to pixels.
EPS
format supports Lab, CMYK, RGB, Indexed Color, Duotone, Grayscale, and
Bitmap color modes, and does not support alpha channels. EPS supports
clipping paths and must be used when a clipping path is in use.
BMP
BMP is a standard Windows image format on DOS and Windows-compatible
computers. BMP format supports RGB, Indexed Color, Grayscale, and Bitmap
color modes, and does not support alpha channels. You can specify either
Microsoft® Windows or OS/2® format and a bit depth for the image.
For 4-bit and 8-bit images using Windows format, you can also specify
RLE compression.
JPEG(JPG)
JPEG
The JPEG format supports 24-bit color and preserves the broad range
and subtle variations in brightness and hue found in photographs and
other continuous-toned images. JPEG is supported by most browsers.
JPEG compresses file size by selectively discarding data. Because it
discards data, JPEG compression is referred to as lossy. A higher quality
setting results in less data being discarded, but the JPEG compression
method can degrade sharp detail in an image, particularly in images
containing type or vector art.
PNG
Developed as a patent-free alternative to GIF, Portable Network Graphics
(PNG) format is used for lossless compression and for display of images
on the World Wide Web. Unlike GIF, PNG supports 24-bit images and produces
background transparency without jagged edges; however, some Web browsers
do not support PNG images. PNG format supports RGB, indexed-color, grayscale,
and Bitmap-mode images without alpha channels. PNG preserves transparency
in grayscale and RGB images.
Scitex
Continuous Tone (CT)
Scitex Continuous Tone (CT) format is used for high-end image processing
on Scitex computers. Contact Scitex to obtain utilities for transferring
files saved in Scitex CT format to a Scitex system. Scitex CT format
supports CMYK, RGB, and grayscale images and does not support alpha
channels.
CMYK images saved in Scitex CT format often have extremely large file
sizes. These files are generated for input using a Scitex scanner. Images
saved in Scitex CT format are printed to film using a Scitex rasterizing
unit, which produces separations using a patented Scitex halftoning
system. This system produces very few moiré patterns and is often
demanded in professional color work--for example, ads in magazines.
DCS
Desktop Color Separations (DCS) format, a version of the standard EPS
format, lets you save color separations of CMYK or multichannel files.
You use DCS 2.0 format to export images containing spot channels.
Photoshop
Format (PSD)
Photoshop Format (PSD) is the default file format for newly created
images--and the only format supporting all available image modes (Bitmap,
Grayscale, Duotone, Indexed Color, RGB, CMYK, Lab, and Multichannel),
guides, alpha channels, spot channels, and layers (including adjustment
layers, type layers, and layer effects).
