The document we take should be taken in inches for print, but in pixels for the web. As well as the document orientation can be selected horizontally or vertically, the resolution of the document should be 300-150 pixels for print but 72 pixels for the web. If the color mode of the document is print mode then CMYK mode should be selected while for photo editing RGB mode should be selected. The color mode will have an adjacent bit mode which we have to select depending on our work Minimum 8 bit or 16 bit will suffice. After entering all these correctly, we will create a new document when the Create button is pressed.
