Last Updated on September 13, 2024

A good graphic designer feels on top of the world when he/she finds design resources needed for his/her designs; one of such resources is an SVG image. An SVG file is Scalable Vector Graphic file, it is an image type file and it uses a two-dimensional vector graphic format created by the WWC (World Wide Web Consortium).

The two-dimensional vector graphic format works by describing images using a text format based on XML; simply by mapping pixels with specific color codes and storing the color codes in a table, an SVG file can be made of zillions of pixels.

Thus, when an SVG file is resized, it still maintains its quality because the number of pixels will be re-proportioned and then colored from the information stored in a table. The SVG file is the standard format for displaying vector graphics on the web.
