Vector graphics are made up of points and paths rather than pixels. They are commonly used for typography, shapes, and illustrations. Pixel graphics are composed of small color squares called pixels and are typically used for photos. Illustrator uses vectors while Photoshop uses pixels. InDesign allows using both vector and pixel graphics in page layouts.

- 1. Guide to Vector Graphics Vector Vs. pixel Vector is a term used for a type of graphic made up of photo manipulations. Illustrator is a vector based design pro- points or individual paths as opposed to pixels. It is most gram whereas Photoshop is a pixel based design program. commonly used in typography, shapes and illustrations.

This gives the design a clean edge as opposed to mat is that the quality of your designs decreases as the size the jagged edges pixels create. Because of this clean edge of the graphic increases. and the smooth lines created by the paths and point system of vector design, your design can be enlarged to any size--- With vector graphics this is not the case. When you are even as large as a billboard. working with vector, every part of your design is made up
