Vector graphics are represented by points, lines, curves or any other geometric
primitives. All these primitives are based on mathematical equation. Vector graphics
can be scaled to any resolution easily without losing any quality.
Vector art is best for printing. Because it is represented by mathematical curves
(paths). So We can take same vector logo and print on Letterhead and enlarge it to
print to sign boards. Therefore vector graphics is ideal for typesetting and graphics
design.
Some of the famous vector file formats are .Eps (Encapsulated Post Script), .ai
(Adobe illustrator format), .CDR (CorelDraw Format), SVG (Scalable Vector
Graphics), PDF (Portable Document format), EMF (Enhanced Metafile), WMF
(Windows Metafile), etc
