not easy, you can:
separate to index (pantone) colours, (yellow, blue, green & black)
do it as a four colour, using CM&K
it would be complicated as a vector file, there are quite a lot of subtle tones.

Default Re: Convert to Vector? Help

Well...for screenprint you need to separate into single colours, coz they can only print one colour at a time...OK?
Four colour printing (CMYK) would print halftones mainly C & Y, plus both for the green, black in the shadows and you'll need some magenta for the deep blue highlights.
Index printing - use a green, a yellow, a blue (or two) and a black - no halftones, each pixel is assigned a colour from the palette.

Default Re: Convert to Vector? Help

how is it getting printed- is it screen, dtg, transfer, You've taken on a lot for someone who does not have the knowledge or software to handle it. What was the design done in and who did it for you. maybe you can have it print ready by that person, you definitely don't want this as vector.

I just sent you a Corel Vector zipped file. Let me ask you why do you need to vectorize? Maybe what you are trying to to does not have to be in vector format.

Send me a PM.

Default Re: Convert to Vector? Help

The reason I need the image in Vector is so I can get it printed on a t-shirt!

The printer has told me "I need vector graphic " that I quote.

So I am trying to get hold of it to send to them.

Don't know how they print their materials, they can be found at T-Shirt Printing

Thanks for everyones feedback!

What kind of printer do you have? First time I heard of a printer requiring vector image.

BTW the email address was not valid or I mistyped it. It came back with a daemon error message.

Send me an email and I will re-post the file.

I can get a vector out of that but you will end up with quite a few colors to make it look correct.
