Is there any way of converting a jpeg image into a vector in Fireworks? Deity Babbage, where be thee?

I am hoping for a quick way of converting images (jpeg etc) into a vector.
Is this possible?
Thanks
Eddie

It won't work with really complex images or photos, but if you have something like a logo, it can work well. You'll need to edit the vectors it generates to smooth out some bumps and incorrect nodes, but editing a vector is much easier than drawing the whole thing from scratch.
Hope this helps!

  • HELP - CONVERTING A JPEG IMAGE INTO A LINE DRAWING

    PLEEEASE HELP ME!!!
    sorry to be thick - im only a beginner   ---   is there any way to covert a jpeg image into like a line drawing where there is a block colour background and solid lines that make up the picture like you sometimes get in brochures - somthing different to just the effects that are availible in the filter gallery...
    thanks

    As far as I recall there's no magic/easy "convert to vector drawing" functionality in Photoshop, though there are some things you can do to help smooth rough edges (e.g., Filter - Noise - Median).  There are also some things you can do, if you want to get fancy, based on converting selections to paths, but that can get kind of involved and likely requires manual path editing afterward.
    I have heard there are some pretty decent vector conversion functions in other Adobe apps...  Adobe Illustrator, perhaps?  Someone who uses Illustrator may want to chime in here; I don't have that package.

  • I have an iMac running Mavericks 10.9.4 I also have about 30 Kodack photo CDs that I wish to convert from PCD to Jpeg but Mavericks will not see the files, they are grey.  Is there any way to convert them?

    I have an iMac running Mavericks 10.9.4 I also have about 30 Kodack photo CDs that I wish to convert from PCD to Jpeg but Mavericks will not see the files, they are grey.  Is there any way to convert them or must I do it on another machine?

    iPhoto used to support the PCD format up to a few years ago. It's extremely frustrating that Apple decided to no longer support this format and now I'm directed to pay nearly $40 for an app that will (GraphicConverter 9). Did Lemke Software make a deal with Apple so we'd have to pay a premium for a very overpriced converter? And, how are decisions like this supposed to encourage the use of iPhoto?
    Apple users already pay a premium to use a Mac. Obstacles like these eventually destroy loyalty to the Apple brand. Just ask Microsoft how their back room deals that exploited their customer base worked out for them.

  • Is there any way to convert the selected rows to text in javascript??

    Hi All,
    I have place some word file to indesign cs 5.5 it is almost in one table, i need to separate the text from the real tables, Is there any way to convert the selected rows to text in javascript??
    If there is no way to make that, any one can help me to make a script to cut the selected rows and place it in privies pointer of the table to make it independent table and after that convert it to text ?

    This insert the rows contents after the table instead of being before:
    for (var r = app.selection.length - 1; r >= 0; r--) {
        for (var t = app.selection[r].rows.length - 1; t >= 0; t--) {
            for (var u = app.selection[r].rows[t].cells.length - 1; u >= 0; u--) {
                for (var c = app.selection[r].rows[t].cells[u].paragraphs.length - 1; c >= 0; c--) {
                    app.selection[r].rows[t].cells[u].paragraphs[0].move (LocationOptions.AFTER, app.selection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset.parent.insertionPoints.nextItem(app.se lection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset));
                    if (c != 0)
                        app.selection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset.parent.insertionPoints.nextItem(app.se lection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset).contents += "\r";
                if (u != 0) {
                    app.selection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset.parent.insertionPoints.nextItem(app.se lection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset).contents += "\t";
                else {
                    app.selection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset.parent.insertionPoints.nextItem(app.se lection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset).contents += "\r";
    for (var r = 0; r < app.selection.length; r++) {
        for (var t = app.selection[r].rows.length - 1; t >= 0; t--) {
            app.selection[r].rows[t].remove ();

  • Is there any way to convert the ImportObject into an image file ?

    I have converted a FM document into MIF file format. FM has a grapic imported by copying into the document. In the MIF file I can see the image like the following,

    Is there any way to convert the ImportObject inside the mif file into an image file ?

    Error 7103,
    Regarding Note A and Note B... The Downsample dropdowns list three variations of Downsampling TO, each corresponding to a different downsampling method. When you select one of the Downsampling TO options, then the pixels per inch box allow you to specify the dpi of the downsampled image, the one after the downsampling.
    When you select Off, which means do NOT downsample, then the pixels per inch box is meaningless. Maybe it would be a nice interface feature to disable it, but that is another issue. In any event, OFF ignores any value in pixels per inch.
    Whenever you import an image into your publishing program (FrameMaker, InDesign, or whatever) and scale it, one can think of the scaled image as having a physical dpi, the number of pixels per physical inch on the "paper." When you specify downsampling in Distiller, the number you specify is most likely less than the physical dpi of the image in the document. It is probably meaningless to specify a number that is larger. I am guessing (and this is a guess) that Distiller does not UPsample images. I have never tested it.
    I use 1200 for image recovery.
    I assume you are talking about recoverying an image embedded in (copied into) the publishing document. I believe it is sufficient simply to turn downsampling off to create a PDF with the image at the resolution as embedded in the document.
    No, one of the settings is to Determine Automatically, which uses the resolution of the image IN the PDF.
    Where is that found?
    It is NOT in Distiller. It is in Acrobat Professional. (It may or may not be in Acrobat Standard or Acrobat Reader; I do not have them, so do not know.)
    The original poster wanted to recover an image copied into a Frame document file. My method is to create a PDF using a Distiller joboption with ALL downsampling and ALL compression OFF. Presumably the image is put into the PDF with all the pixels it has in the Frame file.
    THEN in Acrobat PROFESSIONAL, export the image with the setting Determine Automatically. I am presuming (never tested it) this exports ALL the pixels that the image has in the PDF file.

  • Hello there, is there any way i can log onto Game Center via just my Username as i have forgotten the other details (I made the account when i was 11 - I'm now 14 and have a bad memory)

    The Question says it all really.
    Is there any way i can log onto Game Center via just my Username as i have forgotten the other details (I made the account when i was 11 - I'm now 14 and have a bad memory)?
    I remember my Username on Gamcenter but due to the recent update of iOS7, it is only letting me Sign in through my APPLE ID - which i have forgotten over time. I wish to recover my account recently because I remember purchasing Gems on the game 'Clash of Clans' and I wish I could restart playing the game.
    Many thanks for taking your time to read and answer this question.

  • I've copied my itunes library onto an external hard drive.  Is there any way I can do this and delete songs from my PC without also deleting from the external drive? Already lost two songs!!!

    I've copied my itunes library onto an external hard drive.  Is there any way I can do this and delete songs from my PC without also deleting from the external drive? Already lost two songs!!!  I just want a back up - using a work PC and don't want others accessing my songs.  Hope someone can help.  Thanks!

    I see. To get a better idea of what is being stored where please download and run the script iTunesInfo which should output something like this:
    I'm interested in the block of 4 results starting ITL location. If your profile name shows up somewhere replace it with <Name>.  It is also worth checking under Edit > Preferences > Advanced to see where iTunes thinks your media is supposed to go. My script estimates the setting based on the location of the first media file it can actually find.

    When you say "Memory Stick" I interpret that to mean a Sony Memory Stick from a Digital Camera or other Sony device. If that is correct yes you can plug it in, you need a USB Memory Stick card adapter like this one from Amazon

    ive deleted movies from itunes which has removed them from apple tv, i still have them on my ipad, is there any way i can get them back into itunes?

    If the movies were rentals then no.
    If the movies are purchases and you have the iTunes 10.4 then you should be able to access the 'cloud' option from in the main iTunes page  - purchases - (upper right corner) and go from there.
    You should also have the option to transfer purchases from the iPad back into iTunes. I don't have an iPad but you can transfer purchases from the iPod/iPhone back to iTunes.

  • Is there any way to convert video files and keep my project in Final Cut Pro 7?

    I am currently editing a project, and have been having multiple issues with freezing while editing. Upon doing some quick research, I learned it is bcause my clips are in the h.264 format, which is not a good editing codec. Is there any way to change the codec of the videos and keep the project I have?

    You might need to relink the timeline to the new media. Just take the H.264 files offline, and reconnect to the new media. If you media managed the sequence, it'd relink. But then you are only converting the files used in the sequence, not all your media.
