Raster/Bitmap Images

Also known as raster graphics. Bitmap images are made up of a pattern of squares called pixels.

Bitmap images become blurry and pixelated when resized.

Bitmap images are intended mainly for on-screen viewing. You can also print a bitmap image, but to get a good quality print you'd need a high resolution bitmap. Most printshops will ask you to supply the bitmap in at least 300dpi.

At Biz-Logo we provide you with a 300 dpi bitmap as well as the original vector art - just to be sure you'll have the files needed by your printers.

Common bitmap formats include:
JPG, GIF, PNG, PSD, TIFF and BMP.

Software used to create bitmaps:
Adobe Photoshop
Corel Photo-Paint
