The word vision can mean more than one thing:
- Vision is one of the senses. See also eye, visual perception
- vision (religion)
- "Vision" can mean an imagined picturing originating with not-so-divine sources: politicians, business planners and change gurus play on this sense of the word.
- A company vision may express a corporate long-term goal - not to be confused with a mission statement (extending the religious metaphor).

For the other meaning of the word "see", see episcopal see.
Vision or seeing is one of the senses, consisting of the ability to detect light and interpret (see) it as the perception known as sight or naked eye vision. Something is invisible if within one's line of sight; yet, unseen.
There is disagreement as to whether or not this constitutes one, two or even three distinct senses. Some people make a distinction between "black and white" vision and the perception of colour, and others point out that rod vision uses different physical detectors on the retina from cone vision. Some argue that the perception of depth also constitutes a sense, but others argue that this is really cognition (that is, post-sensory) function derived from having stereoscopic vision (two eyes) and is not a sensory perception as such.
The eye is the light-sensitive organ that performs the first stages of vision. The eye's retina performs the first stages of visual perception processing, with the remaining stages of visual perception occurring in the optic nerve and the visual cortex of the brain.

WYSIWYG (pronounced "whizzy-wig") is an acronym for What You See Is What You Get, and is used in computing to refer to the technology that makes sure the image seen on the screen corresponds to what is printed out on paper. Today this is expected for word processors but in other situations, like web (HTML) authoring, this is not always the case.
Meaning
Most programs, even Microsoft Office, are not WYSIWYG since printing and page formatting are still hidden from view.
- A description of a user interface that allows the user to view the end result while the document or graphic character is being created
- Allows the user to concentrate entirely in how the content should appear, although having the trade-off of not have the results being easily fine-tuned
- Also used to describe specifically a web-page creation program in which the user creates the webpage visually, while the program generates the HTML for it
Historical Notes
- The phrase originated at Xerox PARC during the late 1970s when the first WYSIWYG editor, Bravo was created on the Alto. The Alto monitor (72 dpi) was designed so that one full page of text could be seen and then printed on the first laser printers. When the text was laid out on the screen 72 dpi font metric files were used, but when printed 300 dpi files were used -- thus you would occasionally find characters and words slightly off, a problem that continues to this day. (72 dpi, came from the standard of 72 "points" per inch used in the commercial printing industry.)
- The researchers at PARC were simply reappropriating a popular catchphrase of the time originated by "Geraldine", a character on The Flip Wilson Show, (1970-1974). In addition to "What you see is what you get!", this character also popularized "The Devil made me do it!"
- The Apple Macintosh system was originally designed so that the screen resolution and the resolution of the dot-matrix printers sold by Apple were identically 72 dpi; thus, the on-screen output of programs such as MacWrite and MacPaint were identical to the printer output, literally WYSIWYG. With the introduction of laser printers, with resolutions higher than the screen resolution, true WYSIWYG vanished.
Related Acronyms
In order of increasing obscurity:
- WYSIWYG - What You See Is What You Get (basic)
- WYSIAYG - What You See Is All You Get (used by computer programmers who point out that a style of "heading" that refers to a specification of "Helvetica 15 bold" provides more useful information than a style of "Helvetica 15 bold" every time a heading is used)
- WYSIAWYG - What You See Is Almost What You Get (most text editing programs)
- WYSIWYM - What You See Is What You Mean (You see what best conveys the message)
- WYSIMOLWYG - What You See Is More Or Less What You Get (another way of stating WYSIAWYG)
- WYTYSIWYTYG - What You Think You See Is What You Think You Get (Pronounced Whit-iss-ee-whit-ig) (When a program claims to be WYSIWYG but isn't)
