  • FILE FORMATS Darry D
    WordPerfect FILE FORMATS Darry D In WordPerfect, when you select File > Open, you are taken to “My Documents.” However, that does not mean that you can open all the files that are stored there. Here are the programs that can open a file, based upon its file extension. A file extension is a string of characters beginning with a period and followed by one to three letters; the optional second part of a PC computer filename; “most applications provide extensions for the files they create”; for example, WordPerfect uses the file extension “wpd”. o .cgm — CGM (Computer Graphics Metafile) was a once-standard for- mat for interchanging graphics images. CGM stores images primarily in vector graphics, but also provides a raster format. Earlier GDM and VDM formats have been merged into CGM. There are many non-standard varieties of CGM in use. Usually found in the “My Pictures” folder of “My Documents” or some other graphics folder (such as “Art”), it can be inserted into WordPerfect 9 using Insert > Graphics > From File (from the MenuBar). o .cvs — comma-delimited file (a database with items separated by commas); this one can be opened only by importing it into the Outlook Express Address Book. o .doc — Created with MS Word; WordPerfect can open it. o .eml — Email created by Outlook Express or Outlook either of which can open it.

  • About Graphics/Digital Images
    About Graphics/Digital Images Digital images are found in lots of file formats (types) that are used for various reasons. I liken the file formats to flavors of ice-cream, which you might or might not choose to consume on any given day. One day chocolate is more important than mint; another day you might use vanilla, and on another day you might decide to combine more than one flavor in the same bowl. Likewise, you might choose one type of graphic file for a particular project, but it might be completely inappropriate for another project. What works well for display purposes (keeping it on the computer, or for publication to the internet) might not print well. Something that prints well might be too big a file to post to the internet, or may make your program run too slowly. Also, some authoring programs (like Boardmaker or Classroom Suite) might be written to only understand certain types of image files. Some file types are more common than others, and are more likely to be recognized by the “parent” program (the one you use to display, edit or print your image). Whatever type you pick ultimately depends on how you plan to use the image. The more technical definitions provided below are taken from the glossary found at http://www.photoshopelementsuser.com/glossary.php?letter=B The additional comments I have added, and hopefully let you know why you would care about any of this, anyway. The two biggest types of images I describe here fall loosely into two categories: vector images and bitmap images.

  • EMF2LEO Documentation
    EMF2LEO Useful Documentation Contents 2. General Information 2 3. Several functionalities 7 4. Examples 8 5. Question and Error repo rting 18 ADOxx.org Seite 1 2. General Information EMF2LEO is a command-line tool used to convert vector graphics into the Leo-scripting- l anguage. Vector graphics that should be converted have to be stored in the Windows Enhanced Metafile format (EMF). Every modern graphic program is able to save graphics in this format. Nevertheless, vector graphic programs like Corel Draw 9 are more likely to produce good results than e.g. Paint Shop Pro. After all, the emf2leo converter facilitates the work of the ADOxx® customising staff in the way, that simple figures can be drawn outside of the ADOxx® Administration Toolkit and then be easily converted into the Leo-scripting-language. You should be aware that there will still be some work to do after having converted the Enhanced Metafile into Leo. EMF2LEO’s output is a Leo-file whose content must be pasted into in the GraphRep of a class attribute of a ADOxx® standard library. Then the converted graphic elements have to be adapted to the customers’ expectations. Due to the different ways of storing an image in an Enhanced Metafile the usability of the Leo-script can vary a lot. In some cases, very good results are obtained. In other cases, the results only represent a better starting base for the customising staff. In the following passages, it will be shown how to obtain the best possible results while working with EMF2LEO. At first, the structure of an Enhanced Metafile is discussed in detail.

  • Vector Graphics Vector Graphics • Graphics That Are Based on Mathematical Formulas That Define Lines, Shapes, and Curves
    Vector Graphics Vector Graphics • Graphics that are based on mathematical formulas that define lines, shapes, and curves. • Are comprised of paths connected by anchor points. • Can be 2D or 3D. • Edited in draw programs. Examples Original Image Resized Image Shapes that make up the image. Uses of Vector Graphics • Graphics that will be scaled (or resized) • Architectural drawings, CAD programs, flow charts. • Logos that will be scaled (resized) with loss of quality. • Illustrations and clip art. • Graphics on websites. • Small file size allows for quick load times. • Fonts and specialized text effects Advantages of Vectors • Scalable – able to change size easily • Resolution Independent - Regardless of how much the image is enlarged or reduced, the image definition and quality remain the same. • Editability - since each vector is made up of separate and distinct objects, each can be edited independently at any time. • Small File Sizes - easily transferred over the Internet. Disadvantages of Vectors • Lower color quality than raster images. • They do not support as many colors. • Not good for photographic images. • Limited in the type of effects that can be applied. • Can be time consuming to create. Common Vector File Formats • AI – Adobe Illustrator • Native file format for Adobe Illustrator. • Industry standard used by developers of vector graphics. • Used to create, save, and archive original artwork. Common Vector File Formats • EPS – Encapsulated Postscript • Developed by Adobe but supported by most programs. • Graphics developers generally save a copy of the AI file in EPS format because it can be opened by computers running different operating systems. • Most common interchange format for the print industry due to its portability.

Color Models Color Model is a method for explaining the properties or behavior of color within some particular context. No single color model can explain all aspects of color, so we make use of different models to help describe the different perceived characteristics of color. Properties of Light Light is a narrow frequency band within the electromagnetic system. Other frequency bands within this spectrum are called radio waves, micro waves, infrared waves and x-rays. The below fig shows the frequency ranges for some of the electromagnetic bands. Each frequency value within the visible band corresponds to a distinct color. 4 At the low frequency end is a red color (4.3*10 Hz) and the highest frequency is a violet color 14 (7.5 *10 Hz) Spectral colors range from the reds through orange and yellow at the low frequency end to greens, blues and violet at the high end. Since light is an electro magnetic wave, the various colors are described in terms of either the frequency for the wave length λ of the wave. The wave length ad frequency of the monochromatic wave are inversely proportional to each other, with the proportionality constants as the speed of light C where C = λ f A light source such as the sun or a light bulb emits all frequencies within the visible range to produce white light.

    Understanding Vector Graphics Contents • Vector Graphic Images • Spline Curves • More About Bézier Curves • Vector Graphic Output Options • Metafile Graphic Images • Metafile Graphic Output Options Vector Graphic Images • Composed of mathematically defined lines and curves called vectors and are device independent, which means they don’t have a fixed resolution. • Figures can be moved, resized or rotated as an independent object as the figure definition is mathematically retained. • Best for type and other shapes that require crisp, clear boundaries. • Typically produced by illustration/drawing/CAD software such as Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Flash, Corel DRAW, AutoCAD, Turbocad etc. or by scanning artwork etc and tracing or vectorising. Return to contents Vector Graphic Images Vector Graphic Example Spline Curves • Spline: A line defined by control points. • Types: • B-Spline: Control points with equal weight that usually are away from curve. • Bézier: Control points always on the curve. Handles on control points for modifying curve. • NURBS (Non Uniform Rational B-Spline): Control points away from curve with weights to control curve. Spline Curves Spline Curves More About Bézier Curves • Developed by Pierre Bézier (a Renault automotive engineer) in 1960s as way to mathematically describe smooth contours on a car surface. • Historically complex lines either required arduous calculations (in mathematical drawings), or were just drawn by hand (in visual arts and design). • In the 20th century this deficiency proved to be a real obstacle, especially in industrial design, where complex curved lines and surfaces must be precisely defined so as to be uniformly reproduced in metal or plastic. More About Bézier Curves • Bezier curves (after their inventor), are now familiar to any user of a vector drawing program.
