A rasterization engine uses this information to determine how to plot each line and curve at any resolution or zoom level.Ĭontrast that to raster ("bitmap") graphics, which is always bound to a specific resolution, and stores an image as a grid of pixels. Vector graphics is a resolution-independent description of the actual shapes and objects that you see in the image.
In contrast to raster (“bitmap”) graphics editors such as Photoshop or GIMP, Inkscape stores its graphics in a vector format. What sets Inkscape apart is its use of Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG), an open XML-based W3C standard, as the native format.
Inkscape is an open-source vector graphics editor similar to Adobe Illustrator, Corel Draw, Freehand, or Xara X.
