Vector Magic recommends using the PNG format when storing logos as bitmaps. This format is widely supported by web browsers and image viewers/editors. The best of the lossless image formats is called PNG (Portable Network Graphics). They are more suitable for things like logos. These store an exact pixel-by-pixel representation of the image, but require more space. We do not recommend using JPEG files for rasterized vector art, as the compression artifacts substantially degrade the quality of the image near edges. It has excellent compression characteristics and has the nice feature that the user may specify what level of compression they desire, trading off fidelity for file size. One of the most widely-used image formats. They are also commonly used on the web to save bandwidth. They are best suited to photographs and other images where perfect accuracy is not important. These have smaller file sizes but do not store a perfect copy of the image. Some of the most common are: JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP, and TIFF.īroadly speaking, they fall into two categories: Lossy formats But it still beats a jaggy PNG for making customer presentation materials.There is a large number of different bitmap formats.
#Inkscape eps software
My takeaway is that nothing involving PDFs (and possibly SVGs) is consistent from one piece of software to another, and possibly instance-to-instance. I didn't do any deeper analysis, in either the graphic design sense as did or in the SVG object hierarchy sense as did. Being the good engineer, I went for the smaller filesize. Initially, I thought that the version imported using the internal option has a tiny bit better color saturation, but after rearranging their tiled positions on screen, I'm convinced that my initial impression was a screen artifact and the two converter options produced visibly indistinguishable results.

To my eye, using an el cheapo corporate PC and LCD monitor in not-controlled office lighting, I believe the two versions are indistinguishable. Trying a similar chain of conversions has in the past rasterized the graphic for me, which isn't what I wanted. Neither SVG got rasterized - no jaggies apparent up to 3200%.
#Inkscape eps pdf
I imported the file using the internal option with "Replace PDF fonts" unticked and saved as an SVG, resulting in a 7 kB SVG. (I don't stay updated because it works, and version updates at work are time-consuming.) I imported the file using the Poppler/Cairo option and saved as an SVG, resulting in an 8 kB SVG. I then twice imported the PDF into Inkscape 0.92.4 (5da689c313, ). This PDF didn't get rasterized - no jaggies at up to 3200%. So I imported the EPS (RGB colorspace) and saved it as a PDF (using default options) resulting in a 7 kB PDF. The only software I have at work (on highly locked-down Windows 10) which opens EPS is Adobe Acrobat DC. The one I needed is available as an EPS (in your choice of colorspaces) with filesize 170 kB for RGB. My employer has a repository of company-approved graphics.

It's six letters in a proprietary font and a corporate logo 'bug' in a single (not black) color. I'd post the EPS, but that probably would make somebody in corporate branding mad. I did a similar experiment in converting a graphic logo from EPS to SVG.
