The representation of a digital image as points, lines and other geometric entities. All computer-aided design (CAD), drawing and diagramming programs create vector images (see graphics formats).

Vector graphics are infinitely scalable images created using mathematically defined elements. In simpler terms, you can make a vector graphic as large or small as you want without losing any quality.

Since vector images can be embedded in PDFs, it is possible to extract these graphics if they are required for use elsewhere. As vector images do not distort when resized, they can be useful when ...
