Photo Realistic Art (raster)
Photographic Art (or Photo Realistic Design) is Art that incorporates scanned in imagery, or art that is built in a pixel based program such as Photoshop or Photopaint.
Common file extensions for such files are .psd, .tif, .jpg (jpeg), .gif & .png.
This includes any art built in a vector-based program that also incorporates imported or placed photographic elements. In order to reproduce a photographic image, we require a file with a resolution of 300 dots (pixels) per inch or the actual photo.
Vector Art
Vector Art is art that is built (actually drawn) in a vector or object based program such as Adobe Illustrator, Corel Draw, or Adobe Freehand. Each object in vector file can be selected and individually manipulated independently from the rest of the image.
Common files extensions for this type of file include .ai, .eps, .cdr & .fla.
When providing such files, it is important to convert to curves or create outlines out of all text used. For a vector art file (i.e. Adobe Illustrator file) with no placed images resolution is not a concern.
