Best Answer

Each image format has a specific use. A bmp file is a bitmapped raster image in black and white. A jpeg (Joint Photographic Experts Group) is the format used for the web and the format used by digital cameras. The quality of a jpeg file deteriorates each time you re-save it because it is compressing the file info, so be careful. A giff file is similar to a jpeg except it is an animated graphics file. A tiff (Tagged Image Format File) is a raster file, usually cmyk color mode and used for printing. An eps file can be either raster or vector, and is used for printing, almost always high resolution and cmyk color. A psd file is a native Photoshop file, usually with layers intact, used for creating/editing the image.

What are the image formats supported by c plus plus?

C++ does not provide any native support for graphics of any kind, including graphic image formats. This is because graphics are platform-specific while C++ is a generic language. You can, of course, use graphics in C++, but you need a graphics library and API that is specific to your platform and hardware. There is no generic code available as the code you use is entirely dependant upon the library.


What part of an image intensification tube converts the X-ray image into a visible image?

Input Phosphor. The x-ray image intensifier converts the transmitted x rays into a brightened, visible light image. Within an image intensifier, the input phosphor converts the x-ray photons to light photons, which are then converted to photoelectrons within the photocathode. The electrons are accelerated and focused by a series of electrodes striking the output phosphor, which converts the accelerated electrons into light photons that may be captured by various imaging devices.
