There are a few ways to save a PNG as a vector in Photoshop. One way is to use the “export” function. Go to File > Export > Export As. In the “Format” drop-down menu, select “SVG.”

This will bring up the SVG Options window. In the “Image Settings” section, make sure the “View All” button is selected. This will show you all of the available options for exporting your image. Select the “Use Artboards” checkbox and then click “Export.”

Another way to save a PNG as a vector in Photoshop is to use the “save for web” function. Go to File > Save for Web.” This will bring up the SVG Options window.

PRO TIP: PNG files are typically saved as raster images, meaning they are made up of pixels. Vector images, on the other hand, are made up of lines and curves. While you can convert a PNG file to a vector file in Photoshop, it’s important to note that this process doesn’t always produce the best results. If you need to create a vector image from a PNG, it’s best to use a dedicated vector editing program like Adobe Illustrator.

In the “Image Settings” section, make sure the “View All” button is selected. Select the “Use Artboards” checkbox and then click “Save.”

You can also use the “save as” function to save a PNG as a vector in Photoshop. Go to File > Save As.”

No matter which method you use, you should now have a vector version of your PNG file!
