Converting Vector Objects to Raster

[ LiB ]

The main drawback to vector objects is that you cannot apply effects and filters to vector images. Don't give up hope, though! Paint Shop Pro includes a feature to convert vector layers with all its objects to raster objects on a raster layer. From there, you can apply effects.

Another reason to convert a vector image to raster is file size. A raster file might be smaller than a vector file if the image has several vectors and many areas of uniform color .

NOTE

If you save the image as a .gif, a .jpeg, or any format other than .psp, Paint Shop Pro automatically converts the image to a raster image.
