Raster-image processing or Raster graphics are forms of computer graphics in which each pixel is represented by a small square (or rectangle) of color. The individual pixels of the digital image are placed on a color screen, and they appear as a flat, two-dimensional field of color. The two basic types of raster graphics are bitmapped and continuous tone. The term raster comes from the way that an image is represented on the computer’s video display hardware: a raster video card is a special graphics controller that has its own dedicated memory that stores the individual pixels of the picture.
Vector graphics
Vector graphics are also used for 2D computer graphics, though the term is also used for many other purposes, including 2D vector-based computer art, as in drawing or painting with a graphics program.
Vector graphics use two-dimensional geometric objects called “vectors” to represent shapes, lines, curves, and other figures. The basic vector concept may be abstract, such as a vector in physics, or concrete, such as a vector in geometry, or a vector in mathematical notation. Vector graphics can be viewed as a set of mathematical equations that produce a particular picture. For instance, the line above has the equation y = x2.
The basic unit of vector graphics is a vector. As with raster graphics, the vectors can be modeled as geometric shapes, defined by mathematical equations. The difference is that the unit of the vector graphics software is a mathematical point or vector, which is mathematically defined, rather than a small square of color on a digital screen. The vector graphics commands are used to manipulate the mathematical points, and the geometric equations describe how the points move when

Reception 
AutoCAD was well received at its first showing at the 1995 American Productivity and Quality Center's Business Excellence Awards. The release of AutoCAD 2000 was also well received. In 1999, AutoCAD, then branded as Autodesk AutoCAD, won a PC Magazine Editor's Choice Award. AutoCAD 2002 was selected by Computer Dealer magazine as its PC Product of the Year. In 2002, PC Magazine ranked AutoCAD 2002 as the #1 PC software application in the rankings. The editors of PC Magazine wrote: "With the new AutoCAD 2002, Autodesk strikes a nice balance between power and affordability."
In July 2005, Autodesk AutoCAD 2005 was selected by PC Magazine as the Best Upgrade from the previous year. In August 2006, PC Magazine selected AutoCAD 2006 as its Best CAD application. On July 30, 2007, Autodesk announced that AutoCAD 2007, released in August 2007, was the best selling software product of 2007, "ahead of every software solution except Office and Windows Server 2008 R2."
AutoCAD's release of AutoCAD 2008 was met with positive reviews in several publications. In October 2008, the company announced that AutoCAD 2008 was the top-selling Windows application in 2008, with more than 1.6 million copies sold. On October 28, 2008, Autodesk's chief financial officer, Andy Berndt, was quoted as saying that AutoCAD 2008 sales were "significantly ahead of our forecast".
In December 2008, AutoCAD 2010 was selected by PC Magazine as its Best New Feature and Best Overall Product. In February 2009, Autodesk announced that AutoCAD 2010 was the best-selling Windows application in 2008.
AutoCAD 2011's release was met with positive reviews. In October 2011, Autodesk announced that AutoCAD 2011 was the best-selling Windows application of 2011. On October 13, 2011, Autodesk announced that AutoCAD 2011 was the fastest-selling Windows application of 2011. AutoCAD 2011 was again selected by PC Magazine as the Best Software Application of 2011. AutoCAD 2012 was selected by Technology Review as the Best Commercial Product of the Year. Autodesk announced in January
