How do you vectorize an image in Illustrator?

Last updated on September 24, 2022 @ 6:16 pm

Illustrator is a vector art program that allows users to create detailed illustrations and graphics. Vector art is created by using curves and shapes to represent objects in a file, rather than by using pixel values.

Vector art can be scaled up or down without losing detail, and it can be edited easily in Adobe Photoshop or other vector-editing programs.

To vectorize an image in Illustrator, first create a new document with the desired size and resolution. Next, select the image you want to vectorize and open the “Object” menu.

From the “Object” menu, select “Vectorize.” Illustrator will open the “Vector Options” dialog box, where you can set the options for the vectorization process.

The “Vector Options” dialog box contains the following options:

Image Format: This setting determines the format in which the vector image will be saved. Options include “PDF,” “AI,” “EPS,” and “PSD.”
