    You are preparing several images to be published on the web, and you need to make sure they are the correct size while maintaining the right aspect ratio. Recording an action is the quickest way to do this. Which steps should you include in your action? (Choose 2)

    • Using 300ppi resolution

    • Constrain image proportions when exporting

    • Use RGB colour mode

    • Use CMYK colour mode

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Constrain image proportions when exporting
    A. Use RGB colour mode
    Explanation
    The correct answer is to include the steps of constraining image proportions when exporting and using RGB color mode in the action. By including the step of constraining image proportions when exporting, you ensure that the images maintain the correct aspect ratio while resizing. Using RGB color mode is important for web publishing as it is the standard color mode used for digital screens, ensuring accurate color representation. Using 300ppi resolution and CMYK color mode are not necessary for web publishing and may result in larger file sizes and incorrect color representation on digital screens.

    Which of these statements are true?

    • The rectangular marquee tool can select an area to be used as a pattern.

    • Patterns can be saved in libraries to use on various projects.

    • The only patterns that can be used are preset patterns that come with Photoshop.

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. The rectangular marquee tool can select an area to be used as a pattern.
    A. Patterns can be saved in libraries to use on various projects.
    Explanation
    The rectangular marquee tool in Photoshop allows users to select a specific area on an image to be used as a pattern. This means that the selected area can be repeated or tiled to create a pattern effect. Additionally, patterns can be saved in libraries within Photoshop, allowing users to easily access and use them in various projects. This means that users are not limited to only using preset patterns that come with Photoshop, but can create and save their own patterns for future use.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    Which of these statements are correct?

    • A layer with 100% opacity is completely opaque.

    • Adjustment layers can make colour adjustments to an image without permanently changing the pixel values.

    • An Adjustment layer can only be applied to a single layer.

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. A layer with 100% opacity is completely opaque.
    A. Adjustment layers can make colour adjustments to an image without permanently changing the pixel values.
    Explanation
    A layer with 100% opacity is completely opaque because opacity refers to the transparency of a layer, and 100% opacity means the layer is fully visible and not transparent at all. Adjustment layers can make color adjustments to an image without permanently changing the pixel values because they apply non-destructive edits to the image, allowing for easy modification or removal of the adjustments later on.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    Which tool allows you to select a consistently coloured area without having to trace its outline?

    • Quick Selection

    • Magic Wand

    • Rectangular Marquee

    • Lasso

    Correct Answer
    A. Magic Wand
    Explanation
    The Magic Wand tool allows you to select a consistently colored area without having to trace its outline. This tool selects pixels that are similar in color to the pixel you click on, based on a specified tolerance level. It is useful for quickly selecting large areas of solid color or areas with minimal color variations.

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    You are saving a document for publishing on the web. Which settings should you choose?

    • CMYK colour space, 72ppi

    • RGB colour space, 300ppi

    • RGB colour space, 72ppi

    • CMYK colour space, 300ppi

    Correct Answer
    A. RGB colour space, 72ppi
    Explanation
    When saving a document for publishing on the web, it is recommended to choose the RGB color space and a resolution of 72ppi. The RGB color space is used for digital displays and is more suitable for web-based content. Additionally, a resolution of 72ppi is sufficient for web viewing as computer screens typically have a lower resolution compared to print. Choosing CMYK color space and a higher resolution of 300ppi would result in a larger file size and may not be necessary for web publishing.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    Which option in the Crop tool options bar allows you to preserve or remove pixels when you crop an image.

    • Content Aware

    • Delete Cropped Pixels

    • Enable Crop Shield

    • Use Classic Mode

    Correct Answer
    A. Delete Cropped Pixels
    Explanation
    The option "Delete Cropped Pixels" in the Crop tool options bar allows you to remove pixels when you crop an image. This means that any pixels outside of the selected crop area will be permanently deleted from the image. This option is useful when you want to completely remove unwanted areas from the image and ensure that they are not retained in any way.

    • File > Generate...

    • File > Place Embedded...

    • File > Place Linked...

    • File > Import...

    Correct Answer
    A. File > Place Embedded...
    Explanation
    To place an external file into your document so that you can always access it, even if the original isn't available, you should follow the sequence: File > Place Embedded... Placing the file as embedded means that a copy of the file will be included within your document, ensuring that it remains accessible regardless of the availability of the original file.

    Rate this question:

    Which of the following Export options allows you to save each layer (including hidden layers) as a separate file with a designated prefix?

    • Quick Export As PNG

    • Colour Lookup Tables

    • Layers to Files

    • Save For Web (Legacy)

    Correct Answer
    A. Layers to Files
    Explanation
    The "Layers to Files" export option allows you to save each layer, including hidden layers, as a separate file with a designated prefix. This means that each layer in your project will be saved as an individual file, making it easier to manage and use them separately if needed.

    Rate this question:

  • 15. 

    Which of these statements are accurate?

    • Grids can be unlocked and moved around.

    • The rulers must be visible to add grids or guides.

    • Guides are nonprinting lines that can be placed to help align objects.

    Correct Answer
    A. Guides are nonprinting lines that can be placed to help align objects.
    Explanation
    This statement is accurate because guides are indeed nonprinting lines that can be placed in order to assist with the alignment of objects. They are a useful tool for ensuring precise positioning and arrangement of elements within a design or layout. Unlike grids, which can be unlocked and moved around, guides are fixed and cannot be moved once placed. The statement about the rulers needing to be visible to add grids or guides is not accurate, as grids and guides can be added regardless of the visibility of the rulers.

    Rate this question:

  • 16. 

    Which of the following demographics are most important when considering the target audience for a website that sells eyeglasses? (Choose two)

    • Religion

    • Residence

    • Weight

    • Age

    • Occupation

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Age
    A. Occupation
    Explanation
    When considering the target audience for a website that sells eyeglasses, age is an important demographic because different age groups may have different vision needs and preferences. Occupation is also important as it can indicate the type of eyeglasses that may be needed for specific work-related activities. Religion, residence, and weight are not directly related to the target audience for eyeglasses, and therefore are not as important in this context.

    Rate this question:

  • 17. 

    Which of the following can be accessed in the File > File Info section of Photoshop? (Choose two)

    • Current version of Photoshop

    • File creation date

    • Adobe Creative Cloud account

    • Copyright status

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. File creation date
    A. Copyright status
    Explanation
    In the File > File Info section of Photoshop, two things that can be accessed are the file creation date and the copyright status. The file creation date provides information about when the file was originally created, while the copyright status indicates whether the file is protected by copyright or not. The other options, such as the current version of Photoshop and the Adobe Creative Cloud account, are not accessible in this section.

    Rate this question:

  • 18. 

    Which of the following options will change the size of an image without changing the number of pixels in the image?

    • Convert to Smart Object

    • Resampling

    • Resizing

    • Flattening

    Correct Answer
    A. Resizing
    Explanation
    Resizing is the correct answer because it allows changing the dimensions of an image without altering the number of pixels. By adjusting the width and height of the image, the size can be increased or decreased while keeping the same pixel count. This is useful for adjusting the display size of an image without affecting its quality or resolution.

    Rate this question:

  • 19. 

    Which of these statements are true?

    • You can make artboards in non-rectangular shapes.

    • If you create an artboard in the New Document window, it will have the same width and height as the document.

    • Artboards can be created in any type of document.

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. If you create an artboard in the New Document window, it will have the same width and height as the document.
    A. Artboards can be created in any type of document.
    Explanation
    The first statement, "You can make artboards in non-rectangular shapes," is not true. Artboards in Adobe software are always rectangular in shape. However, the second statement, "If you create an artboard in the New Document window, it will have the same width and height as the document," is true. When creating an artboard in the New Document window, it automatically matches the width and height of the document. The third statement, "Artboards can be created in any type of document," is also true. Artboards can be created in various types of documents, including print, web, and mobile.

    ________ layers help organise your content through establishing visual hierarchy by nesting layers.

    Correct Answer(s)
    grouping
    Explanation
    Grouping layers help organise your content through establishing visual hierarchy by nesting layers. By grouping related layers together, it becomes easier to manage and manipulate them as a single unit. This allows for better organization and structure within the design, making it more efficient to work with and ensuring a clear visual hierarchy. Grouping also helps in maintaining consistency and making edits or adjustments to specific sections of the content more convenient.

    Rate this question:

  • 21. 

    Which of the following Transform commands can NOT be used to manipulate a text layer? (Choose two)

    • Skew

    • Perspective

    • Free Transform

    • Distort

    • Rotate

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Perspective
    A. Distort
    Explanation
    Perspective and Distort are the Transform commands that cannot be used to manipulate a text layer. Perspective is used to adjust the perspective of an image, which is not applicable to text. Distort is used to reshape an image by dragging its corners, which would distort the text and make it illegible. Skew, Free Transform, and Rotate, on the other hand, can be used to manipulate a text layer by adjusting its position, size, and rotation.

    Rate this question:

  • 22. 

    It is important to understand which types of editing are destructive and which types are non-destructive. Which of these editing methods are non-destructive?

    • Masking

    • Using Adjustment layers

    • Making adjustments using the Image > Adjustments menu

    • Transforming Smart Objects

    • Using the Clone Stamp tool

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Masking
    A. Using Adjustment layers
    A. Transforming Smart Objects
    Explanation
    Masking, using adjustment layers, and transforming smart objects are non-destructive editing methods.

    Masking allows you to hide or reveal certain parts of an image without permanently altering the original pixels. Adjustment layers apply edits to an image without directly changing the original pixels, making it easy to modify or remove adjustments later. Transforming smart objects allows you to scale, rotate, or distort an object without losing any image quality.

    On the other hand, making adjustments using the Image > Adjustments menu and using the Clone Stamp tool are destructive editing methods, as they directly change the original pixels and make permanent alterations to the image.

    Rate this question:

  • 23. 

    Which of these statements are true?

    • A Smart Object can have a linked external file, or a linked instance inside Photoshop.

    • Linked Smart Objects enable the ability to perform non-destructive transforms without losing original image quality.

    • A Smart Filter cannot be hidden without hiding the entire layer.

    • You can make changes to a Smart Filter after you've added it to a layer.

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. A Smart Object can have a linked external file, or a linked instance inside Photoshop.
    A. Linked Smart Objects enable the ability to perform non-destructive transforms without losing original image quality.
    A. You can make changes to a Smart Filter after you've added it to a layer.
    Explanation
    A Smart Object can have a linked external file, or a linked instance inside Photoshop. This means that a Smart Object can either be linked to an external file, such as an image file, or it can be a linked instance within the Photoshop document itself.

    Linked Smart Objects enable the ability to perform non-destructive transforms without losing original image quality. This means that when you apply transformations, such as scaling or rotating, to a linked Smart Object, the changes are applied non-destructively, meaning that the original image quality is preserved.

    You can make changes to a Smart Filter after you've added it to a layer. This means that once you have applied a Smart Filter to a layer, you can still go back and make adjustments or changes to the filter settings as needed.

    Rate this question:

    • The small double arrows at the top of the panel collapse and expand the panel.

    • When moving a panel, a blue highlight will indicate where it can be placed.

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. To dock a panel, drag it by its tab into the dock.
    A. The small double arrows at the top of the panel collapse and expand the panel.
    A. When moving a panel, a blue highlight will indicate where it can be placed.
    Explanation
    To dock a panel, it is true that you need to drag it by its tab into the dock. The small double arrows at the top of the panel can indeed be used to collapse and expand the panel. When moving a panel, a blue highlight will indicate where it can be placed.
