• Graphics software
  • It is visual images or designs on some surface, such as a wall, canvas, screen, paper, or stone, to inform, illustrate, or entertain.
  • Graphic art software is a subclass of the application software used for graphic design, multimedia development, stylized image development, technical illustration, general image editing, or simply to access graphic files. Hence, Option 4 is correct.
  • Art software uses either raster or vector graphic reading and editing methods to create, edit, and view art.
  • Most art software includes common functions, creation tools, editing tools, filters, and automated rendering modes.
  • Many, however, are designed to enhance a specialized skill or technique.
  • Specialized software packages may be discontinued for various reasons such as lack of appreciation for the result, lack of expertise and training for the product, or simply not worth the time and money investment, but most likely due to obsolescence compared to newer methods or integration as a feature of newer more complete software packages.
