SA MPLE QUESTI ONS

Q1.(a) Why is it important to save images for web and print media in graphic design? [2]
While saving pictures for the web we have to be careful about the size of the file. As on the
web, we are always keen to keep the file size small. The smaller the picture size, the faster the
website’s loading time.
Q1.(b) How is the Perspective Crop tool used ? In what scenarios is it befeficial? [1]
Pictures of an object taken from sides/angle, are cropped and the perspective is automatically changed
to the “front view”. This is done by using the PERSPECTIVE CROP TOOL.

Before After (applying the Perspective Crop Tool)

How to use: Select the Perspective Crop tool from the Tools.

In what Secenarios is it used? Fashion Design, Advertising of Products, Nature Photography etc.

Q2.(a) What is a Layer? What is the use of multiple layers?

ORGANIZE: Layers let you organise your work into distinct levels (layers) that can be edited and
viewed as individual units.
EDITING MADE EASY: Easy to add, edit or delete any object/picture from your design/poster,
without hampering the background image/color.

Q2.(b) How are Pixel Per Inch and Dots Per Inch used for measuring image size and quality? [2]
Picture Resolution: Image Density is called the picture resolution. The Higher the resolution,
the higher the quality and the bigger the file size.
PPI: Pixels Per Inch : Digital image resolution (screen display) Eg 1024 x 768 etc.

Class 8 ICTech Worksheet No. 2.1 ANS KEY - Chapter: Advanced Imaging Page 4 of 4
DPI: Dots Per Inch: Printing resolution (physical output) eg. , material, cloth etc. 72 dpi for the
web image and 150 to 300 dpi for the image printed on paper or other materials.

Q3.(a) What is the use of ‘ Blending Mode ‘ in Adobe Photoshop? [2]

Blending Mode: It is the order in which the image components are put together.
By default, the blending mode is “Pass Through” meaning, no blending mode is selected.
Examples of Blending Mode: Hard Light, Linear Light, Linear Dodge (Add) etc.
Q3.(b) What is the purpose of a Free Transform command in Adobe Photoshop? [1]
The Free transform command lets you apply transformations (rotate, scale, skew, distort and
perspective)
Q4. Match the icon in column A with the correct explanation in Column B. and write your
answer in column C. [4]

Answers: (a):_iii_ , (b):_i_, (c):_iv_, (d):_ii_
