While Inkscape uses an internationally standardized format for two-dimensional vector graphics (SVG), many other, sometimes proprietary, file formats for vector graphics and their various applications (fonts, CAD, cartography, 3D modeling …) exist. Vector images are created with vector graphics software (like Inkscape). For instance, if you create your image at one size, making it bigger can create jagged-looking edges (“pixelation”), while shrinking it can lead to colors and shapes blurring into each other. However, the major downside to raster images is that the more the images are manipulated after creation, the more the quality declines. The advantage of raster graphics is that at high resolutions (lots of pixels in a small area) you can have very fine control over color and shape raster images can contain millions of colors and look very realistic. They are made up of pixels, which is to say a grid of colored rectangular dots. Raster images are the default output of everything from digital cameras to most graphics editing software like Paint or Paintbrush. Common examples are JPG, PNG, GIF, TIFF or BMP.
Raster or bitmap images are a majority of the digital images you generally encounter. However, there are two main types of images: There are many image creation and manipulation software programs.
