How to convert an image to vector

[cynthiabartz]

I am new to Affinity, and have used Adobe products for years. (like many people, I'm sure)

There was a feature in Illustrator that I LOVED, where I could sketch something out, scan it, bring it into Illustrator, than convert it to vector. Illustrator would set all the points and curves for me. It made logos super fast and a lot easier to build.

Is there something like that in Designer?

Not yet, but much wanted. In the meantime you could use Inkscape or similar applications.

For a simple 1- to 2-color vector file, if you're on the Mac, search for the utility app "Image Vectorizer" in the Mac App Store. It's inexpensive and does a good job.

Great app which I use just about everyday, also does halftone dot and line conversions, great for screen printing and just copy paste your new vectors into Affinity apps
