Glossary

The world of graphic design, video production, and web development is full of technical terms that are often difficult to understand in everyday life. In this glossary, I explain the most important terms from the fields of print, video, and web – concisely, clearly, and without unnecessary jargon. Whether you want to learn about prepress, video editing, or web design: you'll find the right explanation here. 

Missing a term you'd like explained? Just send it my way and I'll add it to the list.


WYSIWYG

Short for "What You See Is What You Get" – an editor (such as a CMS text field) that displays content exactly as it will appear on the final page while you're editing it, rather than showing raw code or markup.
