+.. glossary::
+
+ raster graphics
+ Raster graphics, or bitmaps, represent an image as an array of pixels
+ which is resolution dependent. Raster graphics are generally most
+ practical for photo-realistic images, but do not easily without loss of
+ quality.
+
+ vector graphics
+ The use of geometrical primitives based upon mathematical equations to
+ represent images in computer graphics. Primitives can include points,
+ lines, curves, and shapes or polygons. Vector graphics are scalable,
+ which means that they can be resized without suffering from issues
+ related to inherent resolution like are seen in raster graphics. Vector
+ graphics are generally most practical for typesetting and graphic design
+ applications.
