Vector vs Raster, what is the difference?

We will work with any file you supply but prefer vector, here's why:

  • Vector graphics are able to be scaled to different sizes and retain quality. (Think of resizing a font)
  • Common Vector graphics files:
    • .pdf, .ai, .eps, .svg, .cdr, .afdesign, .dwg
  • Visit the wiki page for more information
  • Raster graphics can NOT be scaled without losing quality. (Think of an old photograph or video)
  • Common Raster graphics files:
    • .jpg, .png, .tif, .webp, .bmp, .gif
