Vector graphics use mathematical expressions to build images out of points, lines and curves. They can be scaled to any size without losing clarity or quality. Common vector formats include .Ai, .Cdr and .PDF. In contrast, bitmap (raster) images are made up of pixels and are resolution-dependent, so they lose quality when scaled up. Common bitmap formats are .jpg, .png and .tif. Factors that impact image quality include compression, which can lose data and quality, and resolution, as higher resolution means better quality but larger file sizes. Vector images allow resizing without quality loss while bitmaps captured by cameras are fixed resolutions. Larger, higher resolution images result in larger file sizes, slower downloads and
