	What are CMYK colors?
	Cyan, magenta, yellow, black is a color model used to represent color in print. Known as subtractive color model. Color is reproduced by the reflection of light off pigments. Although the full color gamut can be represented in CMY, true black cannot be made owing to impurities in the actual inks. Black (K) is added to counter this.
	What are RGB colors?
	Red, Green and Blue are the primary colors of light, which computers use to display images on your screen. An RGB computer file must be translated into the CMYK (the primary colors of pigment) color space in order to be printed on a printing press.
	What is a Bitmap image?
	A Bitmap image is composed of a grid of individually colored squares (pixels). When viewed at an appropriate resolution the grid appears smooth. Unlike vector images, bitmaps cannot easily be rescaled without any loss in resolution. Resizing bitmaps usually results in a pixellated (jagged) effect. Bitmaps can be found on the web in a range of formats.
	**Different Types of Bitmaps include:
	GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) GIF images can show a maximum of 256 colors. For this reason they are not suitable to display photographs. GIFs use lossless compression which is especially effective with simple images that contain large repetitive areas. JPG/JPEG (Joint Photographic (Experts) Group) This type of bitmap is well suited to photographs or complex images, due to its lossy compression. This form of compression takes advantage of the fact that the eye cannot distinguish between very similar colors. TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) These are usually high resolution (300 dpi) images that are used in word processed documents.
	What is a Vector image?
	These images are described mathematically in terms of curves and vectors. This allows them to be scaled (and printed) to any size with no loss in resolution. Examples of vector formats include:
	**Different Types of Vectors include:
	*Encapsulated Postscript (.eps) This format is the industry standard for printing. It is readable by both PC and Macs. Adobe Illustrator® (.ai)* This format serves as a 'source file' for your logo design, in that it can be used to generate other formats including EPS and bitmaps. It is important to keep a copy of your logo in this format.
