| The graphic design world is unbounded. PC technologies have brought various changes and possibilities to the sphere of graphics. These days PC illustrations are getting more and more accurate. The most widespread graphic applications are vector illustrations and bitmap (or raster) illustrations. It will be helpful both for professional designers and for computer users to get to know more about new achievements in graphic design. Vector graphics represents the use of geometrical figures such as lines, curves, points and others, to form images in PC graphics. It is necessary to understand the designation of this tool to ensure its effective application. Vector files make up an illustration as mathematical formula with the help of shapes, lines and colors. There is specialized vector software that is destined to apply these mathematical formulae to construct screen image of the best quality possible. Vector graphics is widely applied by specialists in graphic design and even by amateurs that need to use some illustrations to create a certain project. Initially vector art was used in the air defense system of the US. Now vector graphics is still in use in military and specialized systems. Amidst the most widespread contemporary directions of vector graphics application is laser shows, when 2 perpendicular mirrors move so as to draw text and shapes on a screen. Vector images are widely applied by such computer software as Coral Draw, Adobe Illustrator and similar programs. Though vector graphics is known for its known for its scalability, it does not imply that vector art is way better than raster illustrations. Both applications have pros and cons. In fact, they are applied for different purposes. Raster application uses pixels, and in such a way it is ideal for photograph editing. Besides, bitmap graphics provides fuller spectrum than vector application. At the same time vector illustrations are widely used for drawing illustrations from scratch. Thus, nowadays you have great opportunities in graphic design. It is up to you to decide which program exactly is required for your kind of activity. |
