This is a catalog that can be viewed on a computer that only contains graphics created as objects, usually vector graphics.

Common catalogs use raster graphics and overlays to achieve graphic functionality. In contrast to this, object-oriented catalogs use "intelligent" graphics to fully benefit from the advantages of graphical objects.

Generally, these illustrations are vector graphics that can be scaled arbitrarily, which results in an essential improvement in the display quality. Raster graphics can be used extensively in the illustration program IsoDraw, such as in hybrid files. In hybrid files, vector and raster parts of a graphic are saved and administered in one single file.
