What is Vector Magic?
Vector Magic is a web-based and desktop application that allows users to easily convert bitmap images (JPG, PNG, GIF, BMP) to vector images (SVG, EPS, PDF, AI, DXF). The service automatically detects image settings and traces the underlying shapes in full color, providing a real vector image.
Users can review, tweak the settings, and edit the vector result online or offline. Vector Magic offers a user-friendly interface with meaningful settings, sub-pixel precision for detail extraction, and intelligent node selection for manageable file sizes. The tool excels at tracing and provides a true vectorization service, unlike others that only embed pixels.
Features
- Fully automatic vectorization: Automatically detects image settings and traces shapes.
- Sub-pixel precision: Precisely traces image details, capturing fine nuances.
- Intelligent node selection: Uses the right number of nodes at optimal locations for easier editing and smaller file sizes.
- Result editing: Allows users to edit the vector result online and in the desktop app.
- Multiple output formats: Delivers results in SVG, EPS, and PDF (Online Edition), plus AI and DXF (Desktop Edition).
