Raster
Examples: GIF, JPEG, TIFF and BMP
Raster graphics is a digitally created image and it has a dot matrix data structure representing the
pixels or point of colour. You can see them when the image is in a poor quality or when the image is
zoomed in to the point where you can spot the square dot like structure, they can be more seen on
the edges where the colour may be transferring. When resized, raster graphic file loses its quality.
The raster file size effects both the quality and the colour of the image. The bigger the file the better
quality it will have and the opposite the smaller the file the poorer the quality will be. This also means
that the file size will be different for different purposes, if the image is for digital view only, it may use
a smaller file size, but if the image is for print, the file will be bigger as the quality required for the
quality print should be high. So if you need to print the file you will go with a TIFF file format as it is a
large raster file and will have a higher resolution and will be used for print production. On the other
side, JPEG is a compressed, much smaller raster file than TIFF and will be most useful for digital use,
and are mostly used on the web. You ca see it on the picture below you can see the square dot like
structure where the colour transfers from light grey to black Raster is a grid of x and y coordinates on
a display space. This image file identifies which of these coordinates to illuminate in monochrome or
colour values. It may also be known as a bitmap because of the information that is directly mapped
on a grid. It is hard to modify a raster image file format without losing some information. It is larger
than a vector graphic image file format. The software can be used to convert raster file into a vector
file for refinement and changes. It may be viewed on monitor, other digital devices and paper. The
raster file looks realistic. Mostly every image format that you will be seeing online are raster file
formats because raster graphic file format is an output file as it is displayed on the web screen. And
one of the most commonly spread examples are GIF and JPEG file formats. One of the cons will be that
even though the raster file formats has a good colour detail, it loses its quality when enlarged and
becomes pixilated.

Raster based applications
Raster based applications are mainly used for photos and images. Unlike Illustrator that is used to
draw vector which creates vector file. Photoshop is one of the most world used application to edit
the raster based application.
Vector
Examples: CGM, DRW, AI, SVG, ODG, EPS and XML source file
Vector graphics is made up of objects, the use of geometric primitives such as lines, curves, points,
shapes or polygons, all are based on math expressions. Vector graphics are based on vectors (paths)
which lead through locations called control points or nods. It is used to create simple drawings or
complex. The advantage of a vector graphics is that they do not lose quality when you resize the
image this is because vector graphics are scalable, it is told that a vector file format is infinitely
scalable which means that the image can be enlarged as much as you want and it will keep its high
quality. The vector graphic file format doesn’t require a lot of memory as the file size is small. It
doesn’t look realistic as many of the vector graphic file format images are cartoon images.
Vector based applications
You can use vector based applications to create a vector graphic file format. A leading vector based
application is an Adobe Illustrator. It is used to create designs for print, web and screen based
Veera Serebrova Scott
graphics including mobile and smartphone devices. One of the other most used vector based
application is CorelDraw it has really similar features as Adobe Illustrator. The difference between
both applications will be that CorelDraw allows multi page editing to Illustrator only allows single
page editing.
