My Vector design is always exported in pixels


Recommended Posts

I'm trying to export a simple design that I made using Vector brushes to PNG format, but the design always end up being exported in pixels instead of vector, I tried searching for some answers online but I didn't find anything, I tried exporting it in other formats and while it did bring better results, it still lost some of its quality when exported, please help.

These brushes are a raster texture stretched over a vector line. These will be rasterised on export to preserver the textures aspect ratio. You can find more information regarding this here:

In addition to the other answers: PNG is a raster format. You cannot export vector objects to PNG as vectors. You need to export to PDF, SVG, PSD, or EPS to keep the output in vector format.
