1. bitmap
   (graphics, file format) A data file or structure which corresponds bit for bit with an image displayed on a screen, probably in the same format as it would be stored in the display's video memory or maybe as a device independent bitmap. A bitmap is characterised by the width and height of the image...

11. Bitmap
    An image arranged accordingly to bit location in columns. Resolution of a PostScript file processed through a RIP will have a bitmap image with the characteristics and resolution of the particular output device (for example, laser printer at 300 upto 1200dpi, imagesetters at 1270dpi upto 5080dpi).

12. Bitmap
    Strictly speaking, a bitmap is a 1-bit black-and-white image. However, the term is often loosely applied to any two-dimensional image, regardless of bit depth. Still image manipulation packages such as Photoshop and Paint Shop Pro are sometimes referred to as ‘bitmap editors`.

14. Bitmap
    An image in Bitmap mode is 1 bit, i.e. Black and White. Most often refers solid black line art. A TIF Bitmap imported into Quark can be coloured. As they are not hafltoned they give fine, crisp edges and they must be saved with a resolution of 1,200 ppi. All resolution dependent, pixel based images are bitmaps.

    The method of storing information that maps an image pixel, bit by bit. There are many bitmapped file formats, .bmp, .pcx, .pict, .pict-2, tiff, .tiff, .gif (89a), and so on. Most image files are bit mapped. This type of file gives you the jaggies, when examined closely you can see the line of pixel...

17. bitmap
    A graphics file format in which every pixel on screen is represented by a piece of data in memory (as opposed to a vector image, in which only a description of the image is stored). Each pixel can be represented by up to 32 bits (high colour). Uses file extensions 'bmp', 'jpeg', 'gif' etc. See bit depth and colour depth.
