Vector describes both speed and direction. In graphic programs, a vector graphic scales smoothly (more so than a bitmap image).
The image on the sensor isn't any image format, when this analogue data is put through the A/D converter and saved they are saved in a bitmap container (Jpeg and Raw (NEF, CR2, PEF Etc.) are all bitmap formats) all images are either a bitmap or a vector graphic, out of the camera they are bitmap, but the data in the file can be opened as a Vector Graphic in some programs.
Photoshop can not save vector image but you can work with vector shapes inside Photoshop. There are many similarities, you can add elements to image like type, shape, change color... big difference is that you can not enlarge bitmap image without losing quality.
Not sure Vector i think
The term "vector" in graphic design refers to a method of editing and file storage different than that of a bitmap format or editor. Vector files store information using paths, trajectories, and nodes; while bitmaps store information in an array or matrix.Furthermore, a vector illustration can be exported easily to a bitmap format, at which point it becomes un-editable using vector techniques. A bitmap can also be translated into a vector format, but that requires much more fine tuning and, in many cases, manual conversion via tracing.
Difference between a vector and bitmap graphics is that a vector is a format of a drawing whereas bitmap is a format of a photo. * the advantages of a vector is that the drawing can be stretched to any size without ruining the quality and bitmap is faster to display .Bitmap graphics as being stored in a literal fashion, then Vector Graphics, stored representative are their opposites
One can import both vector and raster/bitmap image formats into InDesign.
A graphic workstation is a workstation that is configured specifically for graphics work. It can include vector graphics, image manipulation, and bitmap graphics.
Raster and Vector
No, bitmap and vector graphics are not the same. Bitmap graphics are made up of pixels and can lose quality if enlarged, while vector graphics are made up of mathematical equations and can be scaled infinitely without losing quality.
The bitmapped graphics file is a .bmp file.
