kart45 6 Posted May 28, 2009 Hey guys, me again Just got a request for some signwork and need some vectorizing help. My un-educated guess tells me that this being one color on white background should make for a quicker conversion... but that's just my un-educated guess speaking (I am hoping to pick up a laptop tonight to designate as the vinyl machine, that will be getting all the imaging, vectorizing, & cutting programs, etc... whereas now I'm sharing a laptop w/ my wife I'm tryin to get this figured out! ) Oh and btw I'm working with SBE for now... hoping to upgrade to a slightly more capable cutting program... any suggestions ;D River_City_green_pdf.pdf River_City_green_pdf.pdf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jay2703 704 Posted May 28, 2009 you PDF looks to be vector already. Open it in InkScape or Illustrator then you should be abel to save it as a .eps file. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bayshorecreations 30 Posted May 29, 2009 I opened the PDF file in Photoshop, saved it to a jpg, opened the jpg up in Illustrator and did a live trace of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pogo 0 Posted May 29, 2009 Here's the actual vector from the pdf. It's much cleaner than the trace. bayshorecreations You can open the pdf directly in illustrator and skip converting to a jpg and then tracing.
