Vector graphics treats everything drawn as objects that can be easily moved, stretched, duplicated, or deleted. It is resolution independent. Bitmapped graphics treats everything as bitmaps, so objects are difficult to move individually without affecting other objects. Changing the resolution of bitmapped graphics requires touch-up work. Both vector and bitmapped graphics can show shapes and colors and are composed of 1s and 0s, but vector graphics uses mathematical objects while bitmapped uses pixels from digital images.

Vector Graphics
• Treats everything that is drawn as
an object
• Objects retain their identity after
they are drawn
• These objects can later be easily
moved, stretched, duplicated,
deleted, etc
• Are resolution independent

Bitmapped Graphics
• Treats everything that is drawn
as a bit-map
• If an object is drawn on top of
another, it is difficult to move
just 1 of them while leaving the
• Other untouched
• Changing the resolution often
requires considerable touch-up
work

Similarities B/W Vector &
Bit-mapped Graphics
• Both are computer files
• Both can show shapes and colors
• Both are useless if you have no computer
• Both needs a monitor/video device to be
seen
• Both are composed of 1 and zeroes
• Both can be manipulated to add or remove
elements
• Both can be burned into a disk
• Both can be copied into a usb device
• Both can be together in some graphic layout
• Both can create a picture/image
