Vector Files

[LeeG]

I created a logo in adobe photoshop and saved it as a TIFF and JPEG files. However, the printer I sent the logo to, requires a vector file or image. Is there any way of changing a JPEG file into a vector file/image?
Thanks

nope, i dont think that there is.. when you make a vector image the program makes mathamatical equations for each line. Im pretty sure that there is no way to turn a JPEG into a vector image, i dont know alot about TIFFs but i found this that makes me think that you cannot.

<QUOTE>There are no provisions in TIFF for storing vector graphics, text annotation, etc (although such items could be easily constructed using TIFF extensions), and so if this is a requirement you would be better off with a format with broader scope, such as PostScript, CGM, or PICT. TIFF is based on file-offsets, so that it is not easily "streamable" in the way JPEG JFIF streams are.</QUOTE>

You may have to create the logo using vectors or get a printer that doesnt require vector formats.

Thanks for your help. So does this mean that a PIC file might work out as a vector image? I worked so hard on this logo, what can I do that this logo should be a vector image?
