What is a vector file, image in vectors, curves, outlines or paths?
A vector or vectorized file contains an image defined by contour lines and fills. It can have geometric shapes or lines with vector-oriented rules. Vectors consist of straight segments with an origin point and an endpoint and can be edited with specific software. The vectors are not visible in the final drawing but they give all the instructions to form the curved lines of the drawing, through their direction, angle and dimension. Vectorizing an image consists of transforming a bitmap matrix image, made up of pixels, into an image based on vectors.

What is image vectorization for?
It serves to simplify, increase the quality of an image and make it scalable (increase or decrease its size without loss of quality). It is widely used in laser, plasma and other cutting, because it allows machines to easily interpret the shapes of a design. It makes editing/changing shapes and colors a lot easier as there are well-defined areas of flat colors, but it is also possible to have color gradients and transparencies.

How much does it cost to vectorize a file?
Most of the time it costs between €17 and €97 ($19-$109 USD or £14-£82 GBP), but it largely depends on the complexity. A photo with people or an image of a coat of arms is much more difficult to vectorize than simple shapes or letters.
The analysis and quote are free and without obligation.

How long does vectorization take?
It can take anywhere from 1 hour to several days. We inform the delivery time in the Email we send to the customer.

How is delivery made?
It is usually by Email. In cases of heavier files, the customer can download them via a file transfer service.

What are the payment methods?
Bank transfer, PayPal, credit card or Wise. Accepted currencies: €, £, ₣, US$, CA$, AU$, NZ$, S$, HK$, Mex$, R$, ₺, among others. Payment details are provided in the email we send to the customer.

Preparing vector art for screen printing EPS/ PDF/ SVG/ DXF/ CDR/ AI

The drawing, logo or vector image is important to be able to use your file in screen printing (we can also do color separation), CNC cutting machines, embroidery or digital transfer, for example. The vector file uses points with certain coordinates and directions instead of bitmap based which is limited by resolution. The vectorized design is great for use in small or large sizes, always maintaining the highest quality, and that's why it's so important preparing vector art for screen printing.

The AI, CDR, EPS, PDF, DXF or SVG file allows you to have your logo or design in vector so it can be scaled without loss of quality. The Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) format is supported by all current Web browsers. DXF - Drawing Exchange Format is a CAD data file format developed by Autodesk for enabling data interoperability between AutoCAD and other programs.

Your logo vector file gets lighter

The logo, drawing or image is lighter and more defined because it is based on mathematical vectors. You can edit, modify and change the color easily as well as the line drawing, without losing quality, achieved by preparing vector art for screen printing.
It is also known as curve drawing or vector stroke, image trace or image tracing. Stick with a professional vector format to apply in various techniques such as: decals, tattoos, digital transfer, serigraphy (screen printing), vinyl cutting and vinyl sticker, CNC, laser cutting, machine embroidery, among others.

Vector file or curve / line drawing can be converted to image automatically without losing quality, otherwise it is much more difficult. Once you have your vector file you can open it in professional programs such as Illustrator, Corel Draw, AutoCAD or Photoshop. The application of vector images is very wide because it can easily convert to other vector formats such as: .DXF, .DWG, .PDF, .AI, .CDR, .EPS, .SVG, among others.

We do a perfect vectorization or very similar to the original. We guarantee the quality of our drawings and files. We have a wide professional experience in font recognition (typefaces) and typography, and that makes all the difference in the final result!
