A designer has designed a logo. The form is shown on the left and its accompanying text is shown on the right. Which of the following statements about this logo is/are TRUE?
Show Hint
- If this logo is printed on an envelope with a 60 DPI dot-matrix printer, such that the total height of the logo is 2 cm, then the logo will retain its original form.
- If this logo is printed on a flex sheet with a 720 DPI flex printer such that the total height of the logo is 15 ft, then the logo will retain its original form.
- This logo can be reproduced as shown above by using a four colour screen printing process.
- The visual properties of the English font match the visual properties of the Hindi font.
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
This question requires an understanding of digital graphics, specifically the difference between vector and raster images, printing resolution (DPI), printing processes, and typography. The logo shown has clean lines and solid colors, which suggests it is a vector graphic.
Step 2: Detailed Explanation:
Let's analyze each statement:
(A) DPI stands for Dots Per Inch, a measure of printing resolution. 60 DPI is a very low resolution. Printing a detailed logo at this resolution, especially at a small size like 2 cm, will result in significant pixelation and loss of detail. The smooth curves and fine lines of the logo would appear jagged and blurred. Therefore, it will not retain its original form. This statement is FALSE.
(B) The logo is designed as a vector graphic. The key property of vector graphics is that they are based on mathematical equations, not pixels. This allows them to be scaled to any size—from a tiny icon to a huge billboard—without any loss of quality or form. A 15 ft height is a very large size, but a vector logo can handle this perfectly. A 720 DPI printer is a high-resolution printer capable of producing sharp details. Therefore, printing a vector logo at a large size on a high-resolution printer will allow it to retain its original form. This statement is TRUE.
(C) The logo features a colour wheel with smooth gradients, transitioning through many different shades. A standard four-colour (CMYK) screen printing process is best for solid colours and can simulate gradients using halftoning (dots), but achieving perfectly smooth, continuous gradients like the one shown is very difficult and may result in visible dot patterns or banding. More specialized printing techniques would be needed for a perfect reproduction. This statement is likely FALSE.
(D) The English font ("Adgula") is a geometric sans-serif font, characterized by uniform stroke width and simple, clean letterforms. The Hindi font ("अडगुल") is a Devanagari script font, which has a more complex structure with varying stroke widths, a horizontal headline (shirorekha), and different calligraphic properties. Their visual properties are distinct and do not match. This statement is FALSE.
Step 3: Final Answer:
Based on the analysis, only statement (B) is true.
