What is vector conversion?
Vector conversion is the process of transforming raster images (PNG, JPG, JPEG, GIF) into scalable vector graphics (SVG, AI, EPS, PDF). Unlike raster images made of pixels, vector files use mathematical equations to create shapes, allowing them to scale infinitely without losing quality. This makes them perfect for printing, logos, signage, and any application where the image needs to be resized.
What file formats do you accept?
We accept all common raster image formats including PNG, JPG, JPEG, GIF, BMP, TIFF, and WebP. We can work with low-resolution images, scanned documents, photographs, screenshots, and even hand-drawn sketches. The better the quality of your source image, the better the final vector result will be.
What vector formats do you provide?
We deliver your vectorized images in multiple formats: SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) - perfect for web use, AI (Adobe Illustrator) - industry standard for designers, EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) - universal format for printing, PDF (Portable Document Format) - easy to view and share, and DXF (AutoCAD Drawing Exchange Format) - for CAD applications.
How much does vector conversion cost?
VectorGurus offers competitive pricing: simple logos start at $15-30, moderate complexity images range from $30-75, and complex illustrations can be $75-200+. We offer volume discounts for bulk orders (10+ images get 20-30% off). Request a free quote for exact pricing.
Do you offer bulk discounts?
Yes! Orders of 10+ images receive 20-30% discount. The more images you need converted, the better the per-image rate. Contact us for a custom quote on large projects.
Do you offer refunds?
We stand behind our work with a satisfaction guarantee. If we cannot successfully vectorize your image to a usable quality, we'll provide a full refund. Since we offer unlimited revisions, we work with you until you're satisfied.
How long does vectorization take?
Most projects are completed within 24-48 hours. Simple logos can be delivered in 12-24 hours. Rush service available for urgent projects (4-12 hour turnaround). Complex illustrations or bulk orders may take 2-5 business days.
What is your turnaround time for bulk orders?
Bulk orders (10+ images) typically take 3-7 business days depending on complexity and quantity. We process bulk orders systematically to maintain consistent quality. Rush processing is available for additional fees.
Do you offer rush service?
Yes! Rush service is available for projects that need to be completed within 4-12 hours. Additional fees apply based on complexity and urgency. Contact us for rush pricing.
What's the difference between auto-trace and hand-traced vectors?
Auto-trace tools automatically convert images but often produce messy results with unnecessary anchor points, jagged edges, and poor quality. Hand-traced vectors (our specialty) are manually created by skilled designers who carefully redraw each element, resulting in clean, professional, and editable vector files. The quality difference is significant, especially for logos.
Do you offer revisions?
Yes! We offer unlimited revisions until you're 100% satisfied. If you need adjustments to colors, shapes, or any elements, simply let us know and we'll make the changes at no additional cost.
Will my vectorized logo be print-ready?
Absolutely! All our vector conversions are print-ready and can be scaled to any size without quality loss. Perfect for business cards, billboards, vehicle wraps, or t-shirts. We can provide CMYK files for professional printing.
Can you match specific Pantone colors?
Yes! We can match specific Pantone colors, RGB values, CMYK values, or HEX codes. Just provide the color specifications in your project instructions.
Can you vectorize complex images or photographs?
Yes, we can vectorize complex images including detailed illustrations, photographs, and intricate designs. Photographs converted to vectors become stylized illustrations. Simpler designs with clear shapes work best for vectorization.
Can you recreate a logo from a low-resolution image?
Yes! This is one of our most common requests. We can recreate logos from business cards, screenshots, low-resolution JPGs, or even photos of physical signage. Even if your original is pixelated or blurry, we can produce a clean, high-quality vector file.
How do I send you my images?
Use our quote request form to upload images directly. You can upload multiple files up to 50MB each. For larger files, send them via Google Drive, Dropbox, or WeTransfer link.
