Line art graphics and anything with well defined shapes (logos, vector illustrations, e.t.c.) must be saved in SVG format. Some of SVG format advantages are: * Written in XML * Text-based * Official W3C graphics standard * Accessible for people with visual disabilities * Searchable * Can be animated * No pixelation * Small file size * Supports transparency * Text can be selected, copied, spoken by the computer, and indexed by search engines. <imageEmbed alt="Image" size="large" showBorder={false} figureEmbed={{ preset: "badExample", figure: 'Bad Example - this graphic is line art, but has mistakenly been saved as a JPEG. It loses resolution.', shouldDisplay: true }} src="/uploads/rules/do-you-know-when-to-use-svg/jpg_vs_svg_bad.jpg" /> <imageEmbed alt="Image" size="large" showBorder={false} figureEmbed={{ preset: "goodExample", figure: 'Good Example - the same graphic, saved as an SVG, no pixelation.', shouldDisplay: true }} src="/uploads/rules/do-you-know-when-to-use-svg/svg.jpg" />
