A vector graphic is a use geometrical patterns such as curves, lines, points.

A bitmap graphic is an image made up of tiny little parts called pixels. It is also possible to edit each individual pixel for a better effect

Logo – With the logo I will have to use bitmap to create a better and smooth effect on the graphic.

Van text – with the text on the van I will have to use a vector graphic, So that the text can be large enough on the van but yet still look effective

Leaflet – with the leaflet I will have to use both vector and bitmap graphic, because of the text and the images.

Scanner - There are a few drawbacks of a scanner and its uses. One of them is that it can only scan a certain size of image, it has a limitation in size. High volume scanners are usually used in large companies as they can deal with a large amount of paper at a time, but the drawback is the price. It can be very expensive to operate a scanner when its being used in a company to pay for the supplies it needs.

Keyboard - Although there isn't serious drawbacks of a keyboard but there are little ones, for example wires could get all muddled and tangled up, and if it was in a work place it would be a big annoying disadvantage. Also after a while if you have the same keyboard for a certain amount of time it can get slow, and it will end up taking its time to catch up with you. Lastly there easy to break.

Graphics tablet - The drawbacks of a graphics tablet are quite obvious. one of them being the sensitivity of the stylus included with the tablet. When using it even if you move it slightly it can click on something you didn't want to. Also after a while the sensitivity wares out and it can be hard to click on anything. Even though there expensive and people would manage them with care, if you drop it on concrete its going to break, and that is a major draw back especially if your clumsy.

Monitor - The drawbacks of a monitor are quite simple, one of them is that they are very expensive specially if you are going for the high tech ones. Also usually the high tech monitors are very fragile which would lead to damage very easily. When monitors are used constantly and are used all of the time it can cause the effect of slow command and the graphics lowering in standards, which is quite an important draw back to consider.

Printer -  The drawbacks of a printer are also very simple, for example if you have a not so modern printer it would take a little bit longer to print than a new printer. Also it is expensive, you have to firstly buy the printer, secondly you have to buy the paper for the printer and thirdly you have to buy the ink for the printer. And ink isn't cheap to buy.

computer - With the computer itself there are loads of different drawbacks. for example if you have wireless and you don't have an anti-virus programme it will harm your computer, and risk your personal   settings on the actual computer. Also if you want a decent computer that will last, it wont come cheap.

Software -  With the software the drawbacks are more serious while creating graphics, for example the computer can crash and the software will not save your creation and it will be lost. Also there isn't a wide range of colours to use, if you want to create a colourful graphic.

While making a logo or poster or anything with an image you have to make sure it is your own, and not someone else’s. If you use someone else’s this is called copyright. Most professional signs and logos have a copyright, which is simply an exclusive legal right to a print, film, even artistic material and many more. Even if you manipulate an image with copyright you could face a heavy fine or even prison. But just because something has a copyright license doesn’t mean you can’t use it, with the owners permission you can use an object with copyright which won’t lead to a heavy fine or a prison sentence.

Printer

The printer is used to print out graphics on paper or card, which can have a lot of uses.

Computer

To make graphics you will need a computer, most computers can make graphics, I suggest the apple mac as they are used by most design companies
