Record 3 1996-12-16

English

Subject field(s)
  • Graphic Arts and Printing
OBS

With the advent of DTP, the term image has been used more and more frequently to mean illustration. It is still preferable, however, to avoid using image to mean illustration whenever confusion is possible with image used in its primary sense.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Imprimerie et arts graphiques
OBS

En français, comme en anglais, le terme image est employé de plus en plus souvent comme synonyme d'illustration, surtout en micro-édition. Il serait par contre préférable d'éviter d'employer image pour désigner illustration dans un texte où il pourrait y avoir risque de confusion avec le sens premier d'image.
