File conversion question - 08-29-2007, 08:31 AM


Since we really don't have a forum for technical questions I thought I'd throw this question out here....

Is there a way to convert a jpeg to a vector file format?

Jpegs don't have any vector information in them. You can try opening one into a vector art program, like Illustrator and it might have a feature that attempts to trace any "edges" it finds and make vectors out of them, but I doubt such a thing would be very effective if it even exists. Otherwise, your best bet is to do what I have done in the past: open it and then trace it.

That's kind of what I've been hearing. Thanks!

There seem to be a number of converts out there even some free ones.

Check these.
