File format information for SVG and AI

Extension	SVG
Full Name	Scalable Vector Graphics
Type	Vector
Mime Type	image/svg+xml
Format	Text

SVG, or Scalable Vector Graphics, is a graphics file format commonly used by websites and the print industry as a means of representing 2D graphics, most notably icons and logos, in a scalable vector format independent of the user's screen resolution.

Unlike other popular bitmap formats, such as PNG or JPG, whose image quality decreases when the image is rendered at a larger size than its native dimensions, SVGs store the image data as a series of points, lines, and curves. This allows the image to scale to any resolution without loss of detail or pixelation.

SVG files are XML formatted, allowing them to be human-readable and extensible, as well as compact, making them ideal for usage on a website. As SVGs are a standard format used by websites, there is widespread support for opening and editing SVG files within most popular graphics editing software.

Extension	AI
Full Name	Adobe Illustrator
Type	Vector
Mime Type	application/octet-stream
Format	Binary

The AI file format is the native file extension associated with the Adobe Illustrator vector editing software. The format stores graphics in vector form, enabling content to be scaled without any loss of detail or pixelation associated with bitmap formats.

A wide range of image data can be stored within an AI file, including basic drawing elements such as lines, curves, and other shapes and colours, gradient fill, and other effects that control the rendering of elements. All these drawing elements are arranged in an independent manner, allowing easy editing of the individual elements that make up the final image.

AI files can be imported into a wide range of vector editing software with varying degrees of accuracy, meaning that for maximum compatibility, Adobe Illustrator software is best used when editing AI files.
