  • Converting a PSD containing smart objects to a vector in Illustrator

    Posted by Amy Whitt on February 19, 2011 at 12:14 am

    I have a psd file made up of 70 smart objects. The smart objects are illustrator vector files. I just found out I have to submit this file as a vector in Illustrator (it’s for a t-shirt) It seems to me since this file is made up of only smart objects that are completely editable as vectors, I should be able to take all these layers into Illustrator somehow? Is this possible without completely rebuilding the design in Illustrator?

    Thanks for your help!

    Double click your smart objects.

    No, that isn’t my problem. I need my entire design made up of 70 smart objects in photoshop, to be an editable vector in Illustrator. I need all the layers to be converted to an Illustrator doc. Not just each layer. I want the whole thing I designed in Illustrator. Is this possible?

    That’s what I’m saying. Double click each smart objects. It will open in AI. Then copy paste each into a new doc and arrange accordingly. Or, recreate it from scratch.
