=== 2D vector graphics ===
A [[vector graphics]] image description may include:{{r|n=PSRef}}{{r|n=MDN_SVG}}
* [[Cartesian coordinate system|Coordinates]] and [[curvature]] information for [[line segments]], [[Circular arc|arcs]], and [[Bézier curve]]s (which may be used as boundaries of filled shapes)
* Center coordinates, width, and height (or [[Minimum bounding rectangle|bounding rectangle]] coordinates) of [[geometric primitive|basic]] shapes such as [[rectangle]]s, [[circle]]s and [[ellipse]]s
* Color, width and pattern (such as dashed or dotted) for rendering lines
* Colors, patterns, and [[Color gradient|gradients]] for filling shapes
* [[Bitmap]] image data (either embedded or in an external file) along with scale and position information
* [[Font rasterization|Text to be rendered]] (along with size, position, orientation, color, and font)
* [[Clipping (computer graphics)|Clipping]] information, if only part of a shape or bitmap image should be rendered
* Transparency and [[compositing]] information for rendering overlapping shapes
* [[Color space]] information, allowing the image to be rendered consistently on different displays and printers
