Opacity:
|
|
Opacity is the measure of how opaque or see-through a graphic or a
piece of paper is. The more fibers or fillers in a
|
paper, the more opaque (less see-through) it will be. Thinner papers
can be made more opaque with opacifying
|
|
thickeners. Graphics opacity is controlled in a graphics program
when layering images on top of each other.

much light can pass through. Transparency is

used most often in desktop publishing to refer to a graphic or
paper. 2) A piece of clear or colored plastic or film
|
|
used with an overhead projector to make presentations on a wall or
white screen is also called a transparency. A
|
|
transparency may be written on with special marker or printed in
some desktop printers
