Binding The process by which pages of a book or other publication are
attached to one another.
Bit Abbreviation of binary digits. The smallest unit of information used to
store information in a computer. Bits are expressed as a binary
notation, that is, in ones and zeros.
Bitmap graphics An image composed of individual pixels. The color value and position
of each pixel are individually described in bits and bytes of computer
memory. It is called a bitmap because it is effectively a map of bits. See
also
Raster file.
Bleed An extra amount of printed image, which extends beyond the trim
edge of the sheet or page.
Booklet VI jobs are composed of booklets, which are personalized copies of a
document. A booklet can consist of several pages, but the entire
document is targeted at a specific individual or address. VI jobs
include elements that may differ from booklet to booklet, including
text, graphics, pictures and page backgrounds.
Butt To join without overlapping or space between.
Byte A grouping of 8 bits of stored information, giving 256 levels of data.
Each byte represents a value or character such as a letter or a number.

CIE Abbreviation for Commission Internationale d'Eclairage. This body
was created for the study of illumination problems. CIE color
coordinates specify proportions of the three additive colors required to
produce any hue and are used for comparative color measurement.
CMYK The process colors - Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black. See also Color
separations, Process colors, and Subtractive color model.
Color gamut The range of colors possible with any color system.
Color separations Separate films are prepared for each of the process printing inks - cyan,
magenta, yellow and black. These films are used to prepare the
printing plates for printing on press. See also
CMYK.
CSA (Color Space Array) Color Space Array is the spectrum of specific variants of a color model
with a specific gamut or color range. For example, within the color
model RGB, there are numerous color spaces, such as Apple RGB,
sRGB, and Adobe RGB. While each of these define color by the same
three axes (R, G, and B), they differ in gamut and other specifications.
CSA is comprised of a three-dimensional geometric representation of
colors that can be seen or generated using a certain color model and
are quantitatively measured. Source CSA is to be used only under the
assumption that the upstream color workflow was managed and
monitored. Otherwise it should be replaced with a Creo profile, which
is the default.
