Still not a choice Vector to Vector converter

Post by theangelwing »

I wonder if you develop this software mainly for bitmap converting, because obviously it's not a choice to convert a vector to vector such as from SVG to EPS (including illustrator format). Every time I try to convert my SVG test file (complete vector) into any EPS format it always ended in rasterized bitmap image embedded into the EPS file, not vector. It even open an SVG vector graphic as a rasterized bitmap, a completely wrong format.
It is very important because many designer do vector design and they need a software that can convert their vector design into other editable vector design. If this software still incapable to do the task I suggest to remove all vector format converting and focus on the bitmap image converting, because to me it actually just a bitmap image converter.

I hope you can make it into vector to vector graphic converter someday.

IM is a raster image processor. For vector processing (including vector to vector conversions), Inkscape is a more suitable tool.
