![]() ![]() Vector images are, mathematically speaking, infinitely zoomable. So, we never see this math behind the art, but the computer keeps track of it, and this ensures that no matter what size or scale we’re at, the lines will always be crisp and clean. So, you can see as we zoom in, it doesn’t matter how close we get, it will always keep its integrity. This little blue line here, right, we can change the brush style all we want but that blue line is our vector. Instead of a line create with pixel – which has a certain resolution and then loses its integrity – vector line, that we draw with the pen tool for example, is connected to an automatically generated mathematical equation. I am using my pen tool here to create a line so we can have example. Now what a vector is: vectors are the foundation of Illustrator. Want we want is to turn our inspiration images, motifs, and sketches into vector images. But when getting an image off the internet for design work, or using something you scan in, you can’t use a raster image as well, particularly in regards to editability and re-sizing. That is why resolution is so important for saving high quality files. You can tell something is a raster image because as you zoom in, you get tons of little pixels and the image quickly loses integrity. Resolution is the limiting factor of a raster image. For example, to recolor it, say with the paintbucket tool, we would get splotchy areas in the borders between shapes, because the resolution means that none of these lines are perfectly true. Select an image, choose an Image Trace Preset, vectorize the image using Image Trace, refine your traced image, ungroup colors, edit the vector image and save. If I wanted to create an editable design with this raster image here, it would be very difficult to work with. Raster images are images made out of pixels. In a newly appeared window, check the Preview box to look at your image in vector format in real-time. You can have Adobe Illustrator vectorize an image if you want to convert it from bitmap or raster graphics to vector graphics. From the dropdown window select Image Trace. Activate the Image Trace Preview First, launch Illustrator. In Adobe Illustrator on the iPad, this tool is called vectorize. Most images you’ll find on the internet, and any photographs you take, are what are called raster images. Follow this easy tutorial to convert raster to vector in 5 steps. The other way of vectorizing is by using a vectorizing tool. Overview: Raster Images vs Vector Images Step.Step 2: Use the keyboard shortcut Shift + Command + O (or Shift + Ctrl + O for Windows users) to outline the font/text. Full transcript is available if you subscribe. Step 1: Select the text you want to vectorize. ![]()
