Help needed converting handwritten text to vector, and smooth out


Recommended Posts

Hi!

Total beginner to Affinity Designer here (a bit of Photoshop experience in the past).  I need some help walking through the steps of converting some handwritten text to a vector(?), and then smoothing out from there.  Trying to create a logo!  Any help would be much appreciated - I'm lost!  Thank you!!IMG_0375.thumb.jpg.1cd3db7164df6311aef160fa997a9974.jpg

Hi BigPook22,
Welcome to the Affinity Forums!

Affinity apps don't have the feature to auto-vectorize, so you would draw it as contour in Affinity with the Pen Tool, or with a Brush + edit its contour afterwards.

More comfortable is the option to use a separate app, for instance the online tool  https://www.pngtosvg.com/
It also gives you the option to smoothen the curve (0-10). Attached is one with 0 and the other with 10. – Unfortunately, now it's not secret anymore ;•)
