1. A method comprising: receiving an image distortion description to be applied to an image portion including a vector graphic and a raster graphic, the raster graphic and the vector graphic being separately distortable and distinct image objects; applying the image distortion description to the vector graphic to produce a distorted vector graphic; and applying the image distortion description to the raster graphic to produce a distorted raster graphic, the distorted vector graphic and the distorted raster graphic together forming a distorted image portion; wherein no result of the applying the image distortion description to the vector graphic is used as input to the applying the image distortion description to the raster graphic; wherein the applying the image distortion description to the raster graphic comprises resampling the raster graphic using the image distortion description as a control structure to govern the resampling, and the resampling comprises extending edges of the raster graphic to provide data values for interpolation; and wherein the applying the image distortion description to the vector graphic comprises composing the image distortion description with the vector graphic to retain curve information as curve information and to maintain a resolution independent aspect of the vector graphic.
