Vector format of Illustrator

One of the most important features of Adobe Illustrator is that the quality of the illustrations created because they are independent of the resolution at which they are displayed. This means that an image created in Illustrator can be enlarged or reduced to change the quality of the image. This is called the vector format. This format uses mathematical relationships using a set of polygons that make up the image, themselves composed of vectors. Each vector goes through a location called a node or control point. In comparison, photographs edited using tools such as Adobe Photoshop depend on the resolution and the quality of the image decreases when an image is enlarged. It is for this reason that we use Illustrator to create logos, because the logo can then be used in different forms and on different media without ever losing quality. It can be printed and enlarged on different media, the logo will remain the same.
