I'm having a custom jersey made but the designer only accepts vector eps. I e-mailed him a jpeg file that I converted into a eps using Photo Shop but the image was pixalated when he increases the size & he wrote back telling me that only a vector eps will solve this. Can anyone tell me how I can convert the picture I downloaded from the internet which I made into a jpeg and convert it?

Welcome to the forum, vicg!

What format was it when you downloaded, and before you converted to JPG?

This was a picture I downloaded from the internet which I put into a doc. and then converted it into a jpeg but that will not do it has to be vector so he can increase the size of the graphic without it pixilating.

Yes, I understand the part about pixelating. But the picture had to be some format already, when you downloaded it. I was just thinking that converting to JPG might be an unnecessary step. And it's possible, though not likely, that it already is in some vector format.

I may not be the right person to answer this, because I'm not super-familiar with vector formats. Because I thought EPS already was a vector format. Maybe EPS can be vector or not? Maybe it's possible to get the vector EPS from Photo Shop? Someone else should confirm that though.

If you want to use the JPG, you can use Inkscape's Trace Bitmap (Path menu). Please consult Help menu > Inkscape Manual for instructions. Note that the Update feature doesn't work for the Brightness Cutoff option, but you can just trace and undo, instead (unless this has been fixed in the most current version 0.48.1, which I don't have, or I would test).

But before you use the JPG though, I would try using the original image, the original one that you downloaded. It will make your trace sharper. (Unless it turns out already to be in a vector format.) (If it happens to be some non-EPS vector format, you can possibly use Inkscape to convert it.)
