A pixel is one of the many tiny dots that make up the representation of a picture in a computer's memory.
Computer graphics can be created as either raster or vector
images
1.
Raster Image - Pixel Based
2.
Vector Image - Mathematical Based
Raster image drawbacks –
·
Dpi(dots per inch)
·
Larger than vector in size
·
Less economical
Raster image advantages – User end
friendly
Raster image formats – Tiff, Jpeg,
Gif, Pcx, Bmp
Vector image drawbacks- Not
suitable for complex graphic displays. Rasterization required for display.
Vector image advantages-
·
More malleable
·
More versatile
·
No upper or lower limit for sizing
Vector image formats- Ai, Eps,
Cgm, Wmf, Pict(macOS)
