What is Digital Imaigng and Why is it Important To Technical Communicators?

摘要

Digital imaing is one of the most significant technological tools available to developers of technical documentation. Because of digital imaging equipment such as scanners and digital cameras, developing detailed, well-organized and graphic technical documentation can be done much faster and with minimal help from outside sources (e.g., drafters, photographers, and printers). The purpose of this paper is to defien the fundamentams of digital imaging technology, describe its major components and applications, and help technical communicators make informed choices when evaluating digital imaging equipment.
