non-printing guides Non-printing guides are alignment aids (rulers or margin guides) found within page layout software.

non-reproducible colors Non-reproducible colors are colors present in an original photograph, that fall outside of the gamut.

Object An image usually consists of objects. If the user was to create an image of a flower, the stem and leaves could be treated as objects by themselves, or the leaves could all be treated as one object. In graphic design images are usually built up, object by object.

real estate logos Logos created specifically for real estate companies. Real estate logos often contain standard real estate images, such as a roof, house, or a building.

Resample A function available in image editing that allows the user to change the resolution of the image while keeping its pixel count in tact.

Resolution The resolution of an image is an important factor in determining the attainable output quality. The higher the resolution of an image, the less pixilated it will be and the curves of the image will appear smoother.

RGB (Red, Green, Blue) RGB is the model used to project color on a computer monitor. By mixing these three colors, a large percentage of the visible color spectrum can be represented.

U

V

Value With reference to color, the term is used to describe brightness.
