Rasterizing an image in Photoshop is a process of transforming an image into a series of lines or dots. This can be done in a variety of ways, but the most common way to rasterize an image is by using the Image Processor command. To rasterize an image, select the Image Processor command from the Tools palette and click on the Rasterize button. The Image Processor window will appear. In this window, you will have several options available to you. The first option is to choose how many lines or dots you want to create. You can choose anywhere from 1 to 16 lines or dots per pixel. The second option is to choose how wide you want the rasters to be. You can choose either a square or round shape for your rasters. The third option is to choose how much blurriness you want your images to have. You can choose from 0 (no blurriness) to 100 (the most blurred version possible). The fourth option is to decide whether you want your images saved as PNGs or JPGs. If you decide to save your images as PNGs, then you will need to specify a file size and a quality setting when you create them. If you decide not to save your images as PNGs, then you will need also specify a file size and a quality setting when you create them. The fifth and final option is whether you want your images saved as JPEGs or TIFFs. If you decide not to save your images as JPEGs, then they will be saved as TIFFs which are much smaller files than JPEGs but still provide high-quality imagery.
