Optimising

In order to maintain the quality of file sizes or an image, and keeping a balance on the quality, depending on the target destination. For example, the target destination is the where you wish to place your graphics, and so that you can apply the graphics to where you desire, you have to save the graphic to a certain type of file format. For instance, if you wish to have an image on your website, you will have to save the image to a 72dpi, and for the image to at the same quality in a leaflet, you have to change the dpi to a 300 resolution.

With bit depth you can change the amount, which will also change the size of the file it is saved in. If you were to optimise the bit depth it depends on where you want to store it, as if you were to include it on the internet, you would have to sacrifice either the quality of image or the speed of loading time. If you were to increase the bit depth then the image quality will be at a good standard but it would take a while for the internet to load the image on the website and vice versa.

Intend image output is how you create a graphic to be of a good quality and size, as well as being efficient. This is important as the file needs to be easily accessed, as it is the data that includes the information of the graphic output. Another aspect that changes the quality of image for your target destination is image dimensions, as the dimensions of the length and width of images can control the size of the image. Even though you are changing the size of the image, the amount of pixels remains the same making the size of the pixels larger too. This means that if the image is stretched and made larger than should be, this is when the image would appear pixelated. So for the best outcome a vector image would be best to include on your website as it will never pixelate due to it being made of shapes.
