|
|
I'm working on another tutorial tonight, and I came upon a section that told me to rasterize the layer. I am not having any trouble following the steps, but I don't exactly understand what Rasterizing the image DOES.
Can anyone give me a quick explanation of why you rasterize an image??
Searching google hasn't produced the results I'm looking for.
Thanks!!!! |

Rasterization makes the image or text permanent, such as it cannot be resized or edited without pixelation occuring. If it's text, you will not longer be able to alter the words in the text and so forth. Rasterization is probably most handy when using animation. If you link the tutorial, I might be able to explain why they are converting the layer to raster  |
