A Vector is a graphic drawing in Trace that contains Paths, which are defined by a Start and End point and may contain other Points, Curves, and Angles. The Vector Paths are independent of resolution, which means they can be resized without losing detail. A Path is also a file format of Trace which saves all of the Vector elements of the design as you work, whether it is Traced or not. When the design is completed, save it as a CutArt to load into the Design Editor. See: Raster Definition See: Vector Definition See: Raster to Vector Definition |
