Task 1
Method 1:
- Using a camera to take pictures ---- analog image
- Using a scanner to scan pictures -- digital image
- Transferring digital images into a computer
Method 2:
- Using a digital camera to take pictures --- digital image
- Transferring digital images into a computer
Task 2.1
Document scanning is the process of using a scanner to convert paper documents into
digital images. The images can then be stored in a digital archive or sent to another
computers in digital files.
Task 2.2
Paper documents of any kind - from small sizes like receipts or business cards to large
sizes like engineering drawings - can be scanned. They can be flexible or inflexible.
Task 2.3
(6 inches X 150 dpi) X (4 inches X 150 dpi) = 900 X 600 pixels.
Task 2.4
They are important parts of scanners to ensure the correct translation of light signals
reflected from scanning points into pixels.
Task 2.5
Advantages of PTM over CCD cells:
- PTM can distinguish tonal differences (especially in the darker parts) better than
CCD.
- CCD cells operate worse with time, which reduces their ability to reproduce
colors and tonal transitions accurately.
- Life span of PTM is longer than CCD cells.
Task 3 Underline the phrases in these sentences.

1. A particular color can be perceived in different ways depending on the color it is
placed next to.
2. A surface that looks red under white light will be perceived as orange if illuminated
by yellow light, for example.
3. The type of off press processing (postpress) you'll be doing in phase eight might
determine what paper you need to use in the original design concept.
4. It is an important step in the process, as it is the last opportunity to check the
material and make any necessary changes.
5. Once the proofs are approved, it's time to make the printing plate that will be used
to strike the actual prints.
6. In order to transfer original images to a computer for viewing and editing , you use
a scanner, which reads the original image and converts it into a digital image.
7. In a drum scanner, the originals are mounted on a glass drum, while in a flatbed
scanner they are placed on a flat glass surface, much like they would be in a
copier.
8. When scanning an image, the scanner divides the surface of the original image
into a checkered pattern, in which every little square corresponds to a scanning
point.
9. The light that is reflected (if you are using reflective art) or transmitted (if you are
using transparent art) from the scanning point will pick up the color from the
respective point on the original image.
10. The quality of the photo multipliers or CCD cells in a scanner is important for
ensuring the correct translation of light signals.
Task 4
1/ A slide is a single page of a presentation created with software such as PowerPoint.
A presentation consists of several slides.
2/ In photography, reversal film is a type of photographic film that produces
a positive image on a transparent base. The film is processed to produce
transparencies or diapositives (abbreviated as "diafilm" in many countries) instead
of negatives and prints. Reversal film is produced in various sizes, from 35 mm roll
film to 8×10 inch sheet film.
A slide is a specially mounted individual transparency intended for projection onto a
screen using a slide projector. This allows the photograph to be viewed by a large
audience at once. The most common form is the 35 mm slide, with the image framed in
a 2×2 inch cardboard or plastic mount.
Task 5
A scanner is an electronic device which can capture images from physical items
and convert them into digital formats, which in turn can be stored in a computer, and
viewed or modified using software applications.
Different types of scanners are available with different quality. In the world of
electronic data transmission, scanning is considered to be the most cost-effective and
reliable way of transmitting images.
Prominent features of a scanner include:
 Resolution - Unlike certain forms of data transmission, scanning involves only
transfer of hard images to digital forms. The role of the end-user is limited in case
of scanning. And as they are not dependent on two-way communication, they
can also help in storing important information or transmitting important
information.
 Efficiency - Modern scanners are built for efficiency and speed. And it comes with
ease of use as well as convenience.
 Reliability - Scanning ensures the best resolution possible for digital images.
Compared to fax machines, which may find it difficult to reproduce the accurate
details, scanners can reproduce images with high resolution and precisions.
 Cost-saving - One of the biggest advantage of scanning is the replacement of
physical files/forms with digital ones. Along with saving physical space, which
has to be used for storage, there are also environmental benefits by using
scanner.
