Photoshop vs. PowerPoint: Which one should I use?
Photoshop and PowerPoint are both very flexible applications-each is capable of performing raster image manipulation as well as text and vector editing with varying degrees of success, reliability and ease. While Photoshop is the choice for making adjustments to your raster image’s file format, resolution, size, contrast, color balance, alignment and to crop or merge images together (image editing), PowerPoint is preferred for creating figures and doing image compositing and annotation because the text and vector based annotation will remain sharp. This is not the case for these vector-based elements in Photoshop- there is a loss in quality of text and vector objects when changing file formats to non-proprietary, pixel-based formats.

Illustrator is a vector-based imaging program. Unlike PhotoShop, which deals in pixels (raster images), this one deals in lines and algorithms for various shapes. It functions by generating curved paths connected by modifiable anchor points. These anchors, with their handles, are ultimately editable and never “leave” the structure of the file.

We’re importing a vector-based image (the lettering),which was designed in an illustration program (i.e.Illustrator, Freehand,Corel or some sign application),into Photoshop® where it will be rasterized into a bitmap image.We’re then beveling that image,adding some simple airbrushed “hot spots”and then exporting it out of Photoshop as an RGB JPG file.Back in our original illustration program,we’ll import that JPG back into our file,place it over the lettering and paste it inside of it.The process of beveling JMV is the same used for Landscaping. For the sake of space,we’ll illustrate how the JMV was done.
