vektorjoonistused

Vektorjoonistused, often referred to as vector graphics, are a type of digital image created using mathematical equations. Unlike raster graphics, which are composed of a grid of pixels, vector images are defined by points, lines, curves, and shapes. These elements are based on mathematical formulas that describe their position, length, direction, and color.

The primary advantage of vector graphics is their scalability. Because they are not resolution-dependent, vector images can be resized infinitely without losing quality or becoming pixelated. This makes them ideal for logos, illustrations, and any design that needs to be used at various sizes, from business cards to billboards. When a vector image is scaled up, the software simply recalculates the mathematical equations to render the image at the new size, ensuring crisp, clean lines.

Common file formats for vector graphics include SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics), AI (Adobe Illustrator), EPS (Encapsulated PostScript), and PDF (Portable Document Format). These formats are widely used in graphic design, web development, and print media. Software like Adobe Illustrator, Inkscape, and CorelDRAW are specifically designed for creating and editing vector artwork. The mathematical nature of vector graphics also allows for easy manipulation of individual elements within the image, such as changing colors, shapes, or positions without affecting the rest of the artwork.
