Photograph converted into an editable vector illustration

Convert image to vector

If you have a picture of a logo and need a file your printer will accept, this is the quickest route. Send what you have and a hand-redrawn vector comes back, usually within a day.

What this service covers

This is the fast, single-file version of our vector service. It suits urgent jobs: a supplier asking for EPS, an embroiderer refusing a JPEG, a sign maker who needs outlines, or a printer rejecting a low-resolution logo the day before a deadline.

Every conversion is redrawn by a person. Automatic tracing is not used, because the files it produces are the reason most of these jobs come to us in the first place.

Included in every project

Anything outside this list is quoted separately rather than assumed.

Single-image conversion

One file redrawn and returned in the formats you need.

Same-day handling

Urgent single logos turned around within working hours where capacity allows.

Font identification

Typefaces matched and set as live text, or drawn as outlines if the original is custom.

Cleanup and correction

Skew, uneven curves and inconsistent spacing corrected in the redraw.

Format bundle

AI, EPS, SVG, PDF and PNG supplied together so you are not asking twice.

Colour documentation

A short note listing the Pantone, CMYK and hex values used.

Why clients commission this work

Fast turnaround

Most single conversions come back the same or next working day.

No minimum order

One logo is a perfectly normal job.

Files that pass preflight

Built to what printers and manufacturers actually accept.

Human redraw

Clean geometry instead of auto-traced approximations.

From brief to final files

Each stage has a clear approval point, so nothing large gets built on an assumption.

  1. Send the image

    Email or upload whatever you have, even a photo or screenshot.

  2. Quick assessment

    We confirm feasibility, price and turnaround, usually within a couple of hours.

  3. Redraw

    The artwork is rebuilt by hand and checked against the original.

  4. Delivery

    Files sent in every format you asked for, with the colour values noted.

Before you brief us

Anything not answered here, ask directly and you will get a straight answer.

Ask a question

The best version of the image you have, the formats you need, and any known colour values. A photograph of printed material is workable if the shapes are clear.

It will match the original closely and generally look better, because uneven curves and spacing get corrected. If you want the imperfections preserved, say so and we will keep them.

Photographs can be converted to a stylised vector illustration, but not to a literal vector copy. We will show you the approach before you commit.

No. You are responsible for having the right to reproduce the artwork you send.
