Pixel mode
The Pixel Mode setting allows users to view graphics at 72 ppi before they are rendered. At the same
time, all of your graphics will remain fully editable. Pixel Mode also prevents pixel shifting, which
sometimes occurs when objects are exported to the Web.
To turn on pixel mode:
See "Display options" on page 101.
Creating slices
Professional Web designers will confirm that a fast download time versus a slow one can spell the
difference between commercial success and failure. A visitor may quickly loose patience and hit the
dreaded Back button if forced to wait too long for a Web page to load. Slicing large images into small,
faster-loading pieces is one of the Web design tricks most often used.
A slice is a rectangular area of an image that becomes a cell in an HTML table. The HTML table is then
exported to be placed onto a Web page.
You can import the table into an HTML editor for further editing.
