Image Types

Converting images gives you the maximum flexibility

for editing, displaying, and printing your pictures. Keep

in mind that changing an image’s data type is

permanent and sometimes loses information; you

should always keep the original image file and use the

Save As

Save As

command to create the converted file.

Five image data types are available on the Convert

1-bit black-and-white

1-bit black-and-white

This type of image is like a drawing with no shades
