Icons by Carbon Design System are available to download in multiple file types (EPS, SVG, PNG, JPG). Understanding the difference between raster and vector files is crucial for designers and developers. Raster graphics such as JPG and PNG are pixel-based images that may lose clarity when resized or enlarged, resulting in pixelation or blurriness. In contrast, vector graphics like SVG and EPS are made up of mathematically defined paths—lines, curves, and shapes—that ensure your icon stays sharp and clear at any size, from tiny icons to billboard-sized prints.
