If you rasterize a vector image at a small size and then try to enlarge the resulting bitmap image, you will likely get a poor-quality pixelated image.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When you increase the size of a rasterized image, the pixels become more visible and the image loses sharpness and clarity. This is because the rasterized image is based on a fixed number of pixels, so when it is enlarged, those pixels become stretched and distorted. In contrast, vector images can be enlarged without losing quality because they are based on mathematical equations rather than pixels.
