Converting 3D fx into vectors

So I've got objects with 3D "bevel and extrude" appplied to them.
Is there a way I can convert them into vectors? Cause now they dont actually act like they're vectors...
I tried to convert them into bitmap and then convert that into vector but that didnt worked out the way I desired.
Is there a solution to this?
Thanks alot

>...it basically means i need to
redraw the thing...
Well... one
could argue that, since you relied on an effect the first time around, you will now be truly drawing (rather than
redrawing) it.
I know I could get slapped silly around here for suggesting such a thing, but this could be a wonderful learning experience for you.

  • Please Help!! I need to convert these tiny icons into vector images?!

    I'm having trouble using live trace and converting these icons into vector images. They are of such low resolution and I am even having trouble tracing them in illustrator. Could someone help me out?? I tried it on livetrace, but it doesnt seem to give me the result I need...The pentool is painful to use on such tiny images...

    If you aren't comfortable with the pen tool, try this: I used the Rectangle, Rounded Rectangle, Ellipse, and Rotate tools, Object>Path>Offset Path, and Subtract from shape area (or whatever it's called in your version of AI) in the Pathfinder panel. Also a few guides. It took just a few minutes, and it wasn't necessarily the best or the fastest way. Look at the shapes that make up the image and their relationships: the top of the tree is basically a bunch of ellipses or circles equidistant from and equally spaced around a point. Draw an ellipse over the tree image that looks like the right shape for one of the lobes, select the Rotate tool, opt/alt-click about in the middle of the tree top, and set the angle to 360÷number of lobes (in this case, 8), press enter. Hit cmd/ctrl D until you have enough lobes. draw a circle to fill the gap in the middle. Similarly for the other shapes. The top of the mortarboard hat is basically a square, rotated 90° and vertically compressed. the bottom of it is an ellipse with the direction lines/handles adjusted to change the curves of the bottom. And that's just one way to do it. Live Trace is useless for this kind of task; you need to draw it.

    Oh, yeah: Object>Compound Path>Make
    Or better than that get comfortable with the pen tool and Illustrator in general and perhaps take a course so you can use the application.

  • Convert English fonts into hindi and tamil

    My swing application consists of labels being displayed in english.
    The application has four versions : Tamil ,Telugu,English and Hindi .
    Since its an transaction software as like ATM , I just want to change the fonts alone .
    I did go through the internationalization concept , But it rather needs a translation .
    What other ways are there to implement other than maintaining a properties file..

  • Can we create AI template that can be rendered into vectors

    Hi Everyone.
    Sorry if I am asking a repeated question.
    I am trying to create a script ( or find a third party tool ) that will convert PDF/Image to vector for engraving.
    Just like this page "Precision Bitmap To Vector Conversion Online- Vector Magic"
    I have tried Inkscape for this but the SVG file generated by this tool is no good for engraving.
    So now I am seeking solution in Adobe illustrator.
    I know that this is feasible as people have done this.
    Thanks in advance.

    It is possible to record actions to create automatic image traces & expand them (if necessary), then play the actions via script.  However, it can depend on the structure of your document, how you can accomplish this.  Also, the Illustrator version must be >= CS6
    You can try to make a first experiment by manually using image trace to make an Image Trace art item in Illustrator and do no further action, then send to engraver.  If your engraver recognizes the vector lines in the Image Trace object, that will be most likely all you need- otherwise, you may need to add the action to expand the trace object into lines.

  • Convert scanned signature into line drawing

    I have a need to convert scanned signatures into line-drawings. I could buy MIcrosoft Illustrator (or something) to do it, but I was wondering if anyone knew of a free-ware Java tool that could do this.
    It would work somehting like the following:
    1. Sign your name on a white piece of paper.
    2. Scan the image and store it as an jpeg file.
    3. A program (hopefully free in Java) would read in the image and output one of the following:
    a) output to another jpeg file where the signature had been converted to line-drawings (so the lines are thiner and more crisp than the scanned image)
    b) output the vector coordinates that could be read into another custom program that could dynamically create the jpeg (I know how to write this jpeg-creatio program from coordinates...).
    thanks,
    Jeff

    For starters, using JPEGs in this situation is a poor choice because it is a lossy format.
    Second, it seems like what you're after is something like OCR. I think I asked a question once about OCR for java... I think I remember someone telling me that it's out there. But anyway search the web for that.
    Even if all you're interested in is code that will smartly 'correct' an image I don't think that there is freely available code (might not be any Java code at all) to do this.

  • Need to convert a long into a string, please

    hi there
    i need to convert a long into a string. can i just cast it like this:
    (String)longNumber = some function that returns a long;

    Why not just use Long.toString()? If you start with a long value, you can create a Long object and get it's value as a String.

  • Im trying to convert a PDF into an excel document and I keep getting an error message that reads "An error has occurred while trying to access the service". WHat am I doing wrong?

    Im trying to convert a PDF into an excel document and I keep getting an error message that reads "An error has occurred while trying to access the service". WHat am I doing wrong?

    it seems my subscription had expired so I signed up again.. It was still having trouble so I repeated the sign up process again.. Then it worked perfectly.. Unfortunately, I think I just subscribed twice and need to cancel one of them. Ugh. Such a pain when I'm trying to get this project completed. I'll be canceling at least one of the subscriptions in the morning. Adobe is not my favorite company right now. None of this was intuitive. And trying to get help was an absolute waste of an hour.

  • How can i convert 3d movie into 2d to watch it in mac

    i have a movie with mkv file playable on vlc how can i convert the movie into 2d

    There are now a bunch of them out there. Do a Google search for "mac 3D conversion" They tend to be around $35. I have been using iSkysoft products, which have been fairly easy to use. They have a "iMedia Converter Deluxe for Mac" that besides the 3D to 2D conversion, will also convert video to 70+ formats, has a 1-Click Video Downloader, and a single click Rip DVD and Burn to DVDs feature. Also claims to be "Ultrafast" all for the same price others apps are that only do the conversion.

  • How can I convert table object into table record format?

    I need to write a store procedure to convert table object into table record. The stored procedure will have a table object IN and then pass the data into another stored procedure with a table record IN. Data passed in may contain more than one record in the table object. Is there any example I can take a look? Thanks.
