130 Glossary

interface connection

The connection between the scanner and the computer. This can be either a USB, parallel, or SCSI connection depending on the model of scanner and your operating system.

interpolated resolution

Resolution that is changed in the scanning software rather than in the hardware. For example, if your scanned image is 600 dpi, you might be able to enhance it to 1200 dpi in the scanning software. This is useful for enlarging small images.

interpolation

The process of increasing the resolution of an image by the addition of new pixels throughout the image, the colors of which are based on neighboring pixels.

invert

To reverse the colors in an image (for example, in a black-and-white image, black areas are turned white and white areas are turned black).

item

The physical drawing, photo, collage, etc. you place in the scanner to scan. Once it is scanned, it is referred to as an image or scanned image.

j

jagged

Refers to the uneven transition between black and white, or areas of color, in a scanned image. Jagged edges can be avoided by scanning at a higher resolution than your output device, or by not scaling the image after scanning it.

JPEG

Joint Photographic Experts Group. A compressed file format that reduces file size and enables faster file access. This format can reduce image quality and performance when the file is decompressed and recompressed.

k

keyboard shortcuts

A keystroke or combination of keystrokes that allows you to quickly accomplish common tasks.

l

landscape

The orientation of a photograph or image that is wider than it is tall. When an image is taller than it is wide, it is called portrait orientation.

m

maximum pixel depth

This option enables higher bits per pixel when the scan is sent to the software. When it is off, 8 bits per pixel are returned for grayscale and 24 bits for color. When it is turned on, 16 bits per pixel are returned for grayscale and 48 bits for color.
