Preparing Images
IMAGES
are very important for the visual presentation of your document, presentation or website.
However, working with images can sometimes be difficult because we have to consider things like resolution, image size, file size, and color mode.
This guide is meant to help clarify and answer some common image questions, such as why photos print blurry or why resolution is important.
