Smart Objects are vector objects that you can place and edit in Photoshop
without a loss of quality. Regardless of how often you scale, rotate, skew,
or otherwise transform a Smart Object, it retains sharp, precise edges. A
great benefit of using Smart Objects is that you can edit the original object
in the authoring application, such as Illustrator, and the changes will be re-
flected in the placed Smart Object in your Photoshop image file.
