Adobe Photoshop

Adobe PhotoshopAdobe Photoshop can be used to enhance, manipulate and create digital images. It has its own native file format, Adobe Photoshop Document, or PSD for short, which is a raster based format, meaning that the images that the files contain are made up of lots of tiny dots. Raster based formats do not scale well due to a loss in quality.

PSD files can contain graphics with multiple layers and be exported to a number of other file formats, including JPG, PNG and GIF, making Photoshop useful for creating graphics for the web. As its name implies, Photoshop is also good at editing and enhancing photographs, with JPG files being their standard format.
