What if I want to export a logo name(scanned image) to vector, I tried the Export Paths to Illustrator option, the the final vector illustrator image is not smooth, the edges are jagged, is there any possible way to improve the edges, your help will be greatly appreciated.

Thankyou, this was a very informative and quick lesson in the transfer of paths into illustrator. That’s going to make this particular project and future one’s much easier.

hi,

I’m totally foreign to illustrator, but I’m trying to make a business card that contains photos and texts.

I’ve learned that i should submit the file as an illustrator (ai file) rather than photoshop (eps file) format, in order to keep the type looking crispy. (Vector vs Raster layout: Type created in Photoshop is rasterized and can appear to have jagged edge when printed.)

Is it possible to design my card within PS (i use CS3), and export it to illustrator, while keeping the style or size of the font?

Nice tip. I have an icon set in PSD and want to bring it into AI but your trick only lets me do it one path at a time. Any idea how to export all paths?

Great. Another useful tip. Any ideas on how to get rid of the crop marks around the artboard once you’ve opened up in Illustrator? Really bugging me…

Hi Guys, am new to illustator. I have got a new programme called pro animator…brilliant!!! but only except vector paths in illustrator. so trying to get my head around it. my main question is…da,da,daaaa

I can easily create a vector path with teh already made symbold in PS….but when i try to make my own shapes and give it a vector path it just does not want to appear in illustrator even when I select all. i a know I am doing something wrong, just cant put my finger on it. Any tips would be very much appreaciated. Thanks.
