Raster Refers to images made up of individual dots, each having a defined value that identifies its size, color and place within the image.

Rasterization :
The process that automatically converts vector and text into raster. This process is done on-the-fly for plotting, or can be stored as a file in raster format.

Raster images are made up of individual dots; each of which have a defined value that precisely identifies its specific color, size and place within the image. (Also known as bitmapped images.) ...

Raster to Vector Conversion - The process of examining a raster image for lines and strokes, and creating a new image that looks the same but is made up of lines rather than pixels. When a person draws, they are creating a vector image.

raster:
A pattern of scanning for input or output, which provides uniform coverage of a two-dimensional surface, such as a monitor screen, a scanner bed, or the CCD array in a digital camera.

raster
Refers to graphics data represented by color values at points, which taken together describe the display on an output device. Bitmap is used in preference to raster in this book.

Raster Layers
Raster layers consist of an array of mathematically defined pixels, where each pixel describes a unique point on the image plane. The “Background' layer in flattened Photoshop files is always a raster layer.

An image that is composed of pixels . An image represented with a matrix of dots. See also vector image.

Raster length
The number of raster points that can be displayed per inch. Given in lines per centimetre (L/cm) or per inch (lpi). A 60 raster is 60 L/cm or 152 lpi.

Raster image
This is a resolution - dependant image that is produced using pixels. The quality of a low - resolution image decreases as you zoom in to the image. Photoshop is raster software.

RIP - Raster Image Processor. Raster images are made from bitmap rather than vector grids. Rasterisation is the process of converting mathematical and digital data into dots by an output device.

What are Raster Formats?
All the formats discussed here belong to a bigger category called Raster formats. Also referred to as bitmaps, Raster formats stock the information in a grid of pixels where each pixel has a different color.

Bitmap or 'raster'. The form in which digital photographs are stored, made up of a matrix of pixels.

Located between the printer and the computer is a RASTER IMAGE PROCESSOR (RIP) or a PAGE DESCRIPTION LANGUAGE (PDL).

Note that most output devices, including dot-matrix printers, laser printers, and display monitors, are raster devices (plotters are the notable exception).

While there's technically a difference between a driver and a true RIP (RIPs can precisely rasterize vector-based graphics such as text), for the photographer dealing with bitmapped images, there isn't-the terms are often used interchangeably.

This is the jargon or informal name for digital artifacts found in raster images. These star-line lines appear where there should be a smooth straight line or curve.

Digital Bitmap images (raster images) use a grid of colours known as pixels to represent images. Each pixel is assigned a specific location and colour value.The whole image would contain millions of individual pixels.

Bit-mapped images (also be known as pixel-oriented images, paint images or raster images) become more refined the higher the resolution of film used.

Because a bitmap image - also known as a raster image - contains a finite number of pixels, the way a bitmap image looks is affected by its resolution. If you scale a bitmap image, it will lose detail and quality. See also vector image.

Uses either raster or vector techniques to expose photographic paper or film. Contrasted with a character setter, which creates only alphanumeric characters by exposing paper or film through a mask with the shapes of the letters engraved in it.

Right-Click on the first layer (the original image, not the rasterized one) and select New Smart Object via Copy. Rename the layer to "Sky Layer" and move it to the foreground. Double-Click it to edit it in Camera Raw and use the following settings: ...

Raster computer images are rectangular arrays of information about pixels giving their red, green and blue intensities for an RGB image). A single pixel in a 24bit image can have over 16 million possible values.

PostScript is not very efficient, though, when it comes to representing pixel-based raster graphics. For this reason, PostScript is not a good format to use for saving images that are later going to be edited using GIMP or another graphics program.

It deceptively seemed like you could, but when you tried, you were greeted with an ugly warning that to do so Photoshop would rasterize your Smart Object and thus the contents as individual layers would no longer be editable.

You can measure distances and find your position on the map, but you cannot search for Points of Interest and you cannot route, since the maps are just raster graphics (Garmin maps are vector based).

Note that the text remains actual text when you are done working with it, and it is put in a separate layer. This means that you are able to edit the text later. (Until you rasterise the layer or flatten the image) ...

can be any size, depending on the number of pixels it contains. Its resolution is fixed so it can't be resized or manipulated without losing image clarity. Some popular bitmap formats are JPEG, GIF and TIFF. A common synonym for bitmap is "raster".

I'm sure I'm trivializing the task--since MapPoint only needs to deal with the vector data and Topo and Satellite products have large amounts of raster information to organize and display, but it is a refreshing interface to use.

Most stock images are supplied as RGB Raster ImageThis is an image displayed as a series of lines of dots or video 'blips'.
