- Vector images are made up of individual scalable objects consisting of lines, curves and shapes
- These images have editable attributes like color, fill and outline.
- Changing the attributes does not diminish the quality of the actual image
- Unlike bitmaps, the vector images are not restricted to rectangular shape.
- If a vector image is placed over another object both the objects can be viewed without any drop in quality
- Vector based images are resolution independent and images maintain the same clarity and intensity even if the size is increased
- The drawback of vector images is that they cannot replace a photographic image because of its cartoon like appearance.
