If you’re a graphic designer, you know that one of the most important file formats is SVG. SVG, or Scalable Vector Graphics, is a file format that allows for vector-based images.
That means that instead of pixels, like in a JPG or PNG file, an SVG image is made up of mathematical equations that describe lines and shapes. That means that they can be scaled to any size without losing quality. And since they’re based on mathematical equations, they can be edited with code.
Now, you may be thinking, “I don’t need to know how to code. I use Photoshop.”
But what if I told you that you could convert your AI files to SVG.. in Photoshop? Yes, it’s true! You can use the “Export” function in Photoshop to save your AI files as SVGs.
Here’s how:
1. Open your AI file in Photoshop. 2. Go to File > Export > Export As. 3. In the “Export As” dialog box, choose “SVG” from the “Format” drop-down menu. 4.
Make sure the “Use Artboards” checkbox is selected. 5. Click “Export.” 6. In the “SVG Options” dialog box, make sure the “CSS Properties” checkbox is selected and click “OK.”
7. That’s it! Your AI file is now an SVG.
Now that you know how to convert AI to SVG in Photoshop, you can start using this powerful file format for your projects.
