vocabulary and exam content

An image is considered high resolution if it has horizontal or vertical pixel dimensions (ppi) of 1000 ppi or larger

Before you begin working on a Photoshop document, it is a good idea to go to Windows and place a check mark by Workspace>Essentials, Layers, Application Frame, Options, Tools

What should you do if you have resized an image and do not want to keep that size?

Click the cancel button in the options bar

To resize an image, go to 

Edit>Free Transform

In the layers palette, what are the visual clues that tell you a layer is visible  and active?

An eye is visible and the layer is highlighted blue

How do you make a layer invisible?

Click once on the eye on the layers palette

Compositing is another word for layering several images in Photoshop.

To scale an image using Edit>Free Transform and keep the exact proportions, press and hold the shift key while dragging from a corner. 

The best Photoshop tool for erasing solid color backgrounds surrounding an image is the Magic Eraser Tool
