We explain what vector graphics are, what tools and software are used to create them, what types of file formats are used and what applications they have. This allows them to be scalable without sacrificing quality, making them ideal for applications such as logos, illustrations, cartography, and fonts.

They differ from raster graphics in that they are made up of mathematical formulas and algorithms instead of pixels.
