Ever wondered why some graphics look smooth
To get your Images and Photographs to translate well from your computer display to printed output , save your file as an EPS (Encapsulated PostScript), the most versatile and preferred file format for high quality output and applications.
Bitmapped graphics - are composed of dot structures. Therefore, the quality and detail in these images is resolution dependent on the output device and specified as dpi or dots per inch.
Scanned images are always bitmapped images.
Resizing of bitmapped images can result in a more pattern.
Graphics that contain a number of hard-edged lines will appear rough when saved in a bitmapped format.
Examples: TIFF, GIF, BMP

Vector graphics- are composed of individual objects and each object remains a separate entity that can be individually manipulated. This type of graphic can be resized over and over without loss of resolution. Typically EPS files are created in drawing programs.
