Computer Software is a collection of instructions that enable
the user to interact with a computer, its hardware, or perform tasks. Without software, most computers would be useless.
Three Types of Computer Software
1. Systems Software or Operating system is the software used
by the computer to translate inputs from various sources into a language which a machine can understand. It coordinates the different hardware components of a computer. Example is the Microsoft.
2. Programming Software is a kind of computer software which is
used exclusively by computer programmers.
3. Application Software is used to interact with a computer.
Popular examples of application software are the Microsoft Office suite which includes Word, Excel and PowerPoint. Applications we use to connect to the internet are internet explorer and Mozilla Firefox.
Here are some software tools used in digital printing.

3. Eraser Tool - erases part of the image in a certain layer by
flattening the image or go through every layer to delete the part.
4. Type Tool - puts texts in a picture.

1. The computer case is the metal and plastic box that contains the main components of the computer, including the motherboard, central processing unit (CPU), and power supply. The front of the case usually has an On/Off button and one or more optical drives.
2. The monitor works with a video card, located inside the
computer case, to display images and text on the screen. Most monitors have control buttons that allow you to change your monitor's display settings, and some monitors also have built-in speakers. Newer monitors usually have LCD (liquid crystal display) or LED (light-emitting diode) displays.
3. The keyboard is one of the main ways to communicate with a
computer. There are many different types of keyboards, but most are very similar and allow you to accomplish the same basic tasks.
4. The mouse is another important tool for communicating with
computers. Commonly known as a pointing device, it lets you point to objects on the screen, click on them, and move them.
There are two main mouse types: optical and mechanical. The optical mouse uses an electronic eye to detect movement and is easier to clean. The mechanical mouse uses a rolling ball to detect movement and requires regular cleaning to work properly.
5. A printer is used to print documents, photos, and anything
else that appears on your screen. There are many types of printers, including inkjet, laser, and photo printers. There are even all-in-one printers, which can also scan and copy documents.
6. Speakers and headphones are output devices, which means
they send information from the computer to the user—in this case, they allow you to hear sound and music. Depending on the model, they may connect to the audio port or the USB port. Some monitors also have built-in speakers.
7. Scanners a device that scans documents or captures images
from photographic prints, posters, magazine pages, and similar sources for computer editing and display.
