  "definition": "A vector is a mathematically calculated method of plotting accurate lines and curves. Unlike bitmap images, it is resolution independent and allows graphics images to be enlarged to any size, without any loss of quality. Programs such as Adobe Illustrator, Macromedia Freehand, Flash and CorelDraw all use vector graphics formats to save files in, such as .EPS SWF and various CAD file formats.",
