Bitmap images
About bitmap images
Bitmap images—technically called raster images—use a grid of small squares known as pixels to represent images.
Each pixel is assigned a specific location and color value. For example, the boot laces in a bitmap image are made up
of a mosaic of pixels that give the appearance of laces. When working with bitmap images, you edit pixels rather than
objects or shapes.
