Adobe Illustrator and CorelDRAW are two of the most popular vector-based illustration programs on PC\/Mac. On mobile devices, Vector Brush has been widely used for professional design apps, such as Adobe Ideas, iDraw, and Ink Brushes. If you are thinking only professionals would benefit from having Vector Brush, you might want to learn how including it in the note-taking app could make a difference. Read along.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>When it comes to note-taking, Vector Brush becomes a necessity for handwriting and drawing. The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sitepoint.com\/svg-scalable-vector-graphics-overview\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">scalable feature<\/a> of Vector Brush allows users to scale drawings or writings larger or smaller to any size without losing their resolution. As more and more note-taking apps support the zoom-in feature and enable users to write or draw details, Vector Brush becomes the magic wand to perfect the experience.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s take a look at the comparison between vector and bitmap(pixel-based) graphics.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-502\" title=\"Vector-graphics-vs-bitmap-graphics\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kdan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Vector-graphics-vs-bitmap-graphics1.jpg?resize=516%2C504&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"516\" height=\"504\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kdan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Vector-graphics-vs-bitmap-graphics1.jpg?w=516&amp;ssl=1 516w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kdan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Vector-graphics-vs-bitmap-graphics1.jpg?resize=300%2C293&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 516px) 85vw, 516px\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.kalitee.org\/vector-graphics-vs-bitmaps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Bitmap or pixel-based images are composed of blends of tiny dots, called pixels. When a pixel-based image is scaled to larger sizes, like the example above, it loses its sharpness and becomes jagged on the edges. On the other hand, vector images are based on the connection of points, lines, curves and polygons on a mathematical plane. No matter how large a vector image is scaled, it will never lose its quality. Take a closer look at another comparison below, the differences between vector and pixel-based images are imminent.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-503\" title=\"vector-vs-bitmap\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kdan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/vector-vs-bitmap.png?resize=394%2C343&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"394\" height=\"343\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kdan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/vector-vs-bitmap.png?w=394&amp;ssl=1 394w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kdan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/vector-vs-bitmap.png?resize=300%2C261&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 394px) 85vw, 394px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Source: srussellu78.blogspot.tw<\/p>\n<p>The same rule applies to brushes. While pixel-based brushes become blurry when scaled larger, vector brush maintains its sharpness under any circumstances. Thus, Vector Brush makes an ideal tool for handwriting, line arts, illustration, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brandcrowd.com\/maker\/tag\/design\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">logo design<\/a>. Wouldn&#8217;t you think that having Vector Brush will change how your works look now? Vector Brush should not just be included in apps designed for professionals.
