Draw vs Paint

Drawing Programs create images composed of objects (eg. squares, shapes etc). The objects can add properties such as colour, line thickness. These objects can easily be editted (eg change shape, colour). Drawing programs create vector files. eg. Microsoft Word


VS


Paint Programs create images pixel by pixel (there are no objects). They can't be easily editted because the only way to edit images is to edit by pixels. Files that they create are called bitmaped files. eg. Paint.Net
