The resulting image is larger than the original, and preserves all the original detail, but has (possibly undesirable) jaggedness. The diagonal lines of the "W", for example, now show the "stairway" shape characteristic of nearest-neighbor interpolation. Other scaling methods below are better at preserving smooth contours in the image.
An image scaled with nearest-neighbor scaling (left) and 2×SaI scaling (right) In computer graphics and digital imaging, image scaling refers to the resizing of a digital image. In video technology, the magnification of digital material is known as upscaling or resolution enhancement.
Image editing encompasses the processes of altering images, whether they are digital photographs, traditional photo-chemical photographs, or illustrations. Traditional analog image editing is known as photo retouching, using tools such as an airbrush to modify photographs or edit illustrations with any traditional art medium.
Adobe Photoshop: The best in the business, it has lots of plug-ins, is used by professionals, but is relatively expensive, though sometimes older versions can be found for less. GIMP : The GNU Image Manipulation Program is a popular open source software available for Linux , Windows , and macOS .

Original image to be made narrower Scaling is undesirable because the castle is distorted. Cropping is undesirable because part of the castle is removed. Seam carving. Seam carving (or liquid rescaling) is an algorithm for content-aware image resizing, developed by Shai Avidan, of Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories (MERL), and Ariel Shamir, of the Interdisciplinary Center and MERL.
Format conversion: convert an image from one format to another (e.g. PNG to JPEG). Transform: resize, rotate, crop, flip or trim an image. (Applies these without generation loss on JPEG files, where possible.) Transparency: render portions of an image invisible. Draw: add shapes or text to an image. Decorate: add a border or frame to an image.
In the field of image processing, stairstep interpolation is a widely employed method technique for interpolating pixels after enlarging an image. The fundamental concept is to interpolate multiple times, in small increments, using any interpolation algorithm that is better than nearest-neighbor interpolation such as; bilinear interpolation, and bicubic interpolation.
