A raster-to-vector conversion program transforms pixel-based images (raster) into scalable, mathematical line representations (vector). These programs, like Adobe Illustrator's Image Trace or standalone software such as CorelDRAW and Inkscape, detect edges and shapes within a raster image, generating lines, curves, and nodes. Vectors offer infinite scalability without loss of quality, making them ideal for logos, illustrations, and designs requiring high-resolution outputs. These tools are essential in fields like graphic design, custom embroidery digitizing, and CAD, where precision and flexibility are crucial.
