Re: Vector images on Cocoa
PDF is the standard vector format. NSImage supports loading and
drawing it.

Re: Vector images on Cocoa
WebKit has experimental SVG support (http://webkit.org/projects/svg/index.html), but I haven't tried it. I have been successfully using PDF vector images, which are pretty much the recommended standard format. We have also used EPS images, but found that occasionally people have crasher bugs with them, and we have not found any workaround. It happens for something like 1 person per 5,000 of our users, so it's pretty rare, but we have never been able to solve the issue, except by disabling the loading of EPS images for those people.
