Currenlty the man and info are tagged with works-with::textdocument and
in my opinion this is a fine enough distinction.

I would suggest 
        Tag: works-with::images
        Description: raster images graphic like photos, bitmaps,...
        Tag: works-with::vector-graphic
        Description: vector graphics like ....
because I consider graphic to be a more technical term.
