Vector & Bitmapped Graphics

- Vector Graphics: Image represented and stored as a collection of shapes, together with data (parameters) defining how the shapes will be produced and where they will be located.
- Bitmapped Images: Image represented and stored as a collection of pixels which displayed make up the image.
- Vector graphics enable images to be composed or filled shapes
- Each object can be manipulated individually
- Scaling objects is easy
- Anti-Aliasing: Allows you to correct the pixelation effect
- Rasterising: Convert vector to Bitmap
- Example of Bitmap images: GIF, JPEG, TIFF, BMP, DIB, PCD, PNG, Etc.
- VECTOR = LINES
- BITMAP = PIXELS
