FAQ
Questions print shops and brands ask most
Straight answers on manual redraws, formats, timing, and how quotes work.
What is manual vector tracing?
Manual vector tracing is the process of carefully rebuilding a raster image—such as a JPG, PNG, screenshot, scan, or low-resolution logo—into clean, editable vector artwork.
We manually recreate the shapes, curves, and typography in Adobe Illustrator so the artwork can be scaled without losing quality.
Do you use Auto Trace or Image Trace?
No. Our vector artwork is manually redrawn in Adobe Illustrator rather than relying on automatic tracing.
This allows us to create cleaner paths, smoother curves, better shapes, and production-ready artwork.
Can you vectorize a blurry or low-resolution logo?
Yes. Blurry, pixelated, scanned, or low-resolution logos are some of the most common projects we handle.
Simply upload your artwork and we'll review it before providing an exact quote. If any important details are unclear, we'll confirm them with you before completing the redraw.
Can you recreate a logo from a screenshot or scanned image?
Yes. We can work from screenshots, scans, photos, JPGs, PNGs, PDFs, sketches, and other low-quality references.
The better the reference, the easier it is to reproduce fine details accurately, but we can often rebuild artwork from surprisingly poor-quality sources.
Can you recreate AI-generated artwork?
Yes. We can manually rebuild AI-generated logos, illustrations, and other artwork into clean, editable vector paths.
If the AI-generated artwork contains inconsistent shapes or details, we'll review the file and let you know what can be accurately recreated.
What vector formats will I receive?
Standard delivery includes:
- AI — Adobe Illustrator
- EPS
- SVG
- High-resolution PNG preview

Can you prepare artwork for printing, embroidery, or signage?
Yes. We can prepare vector artwork for a variety of production applications, including printing, embroidery, signage, screen printing, vinyl cutting, vehicle wraps, laser engraving, packaging, and large-format printing.
Tell us how you plan to use the artwork when requesting your quote so we can prepare it appropriately.
How much does manual vector tracing cost?
Pricing depends on the complexity and level of detail in your artwork.
Typical starting prices are:
- Basic — from $20
- Standard — from $35
- Premium / detailed — from $60
For an exact price, simply upload your artwork and we'll review it and provide a free quote.
How long does vector tracing take?
Most standard logo redraws are completed within 24–48 hours after payment.
More complex, vintage, or highly detailed artwork may require additional time.
Rush service may be available depending on the project and current workload.
Do you offer revisions?
Yes. Revisions are included within the agreed project scope.
We can refine curves, shapes, colors, spacing, and other agreed details until the artwork meets the approved requirements.
Can you match the original colors and fonts?
Yes. We can closely match the colors, typography, spacing, and overall appearance of your original artwork.
If the exact font cannot be identified, we can recreate the lettering as vector outlines while keeping the appearance as close as possible to the reference.
What if I only have a very poor-quality logo?
That's okay.
Upload whatever you have. A blurry JPG, screenshot, scan, photograph, or even a rough reference can be enough for us to determine how the artwork should be rebuilt.
We'll review the file first and let you know what is possible.
Is my artwork confidential?
Yes. Your files are handled securely and are not shared or reused without permission.
We respect the confidentiality of your artwork and business materials.
Do you work with businesses outside the USA?
Yes. We work with clients and businesses worldwide.
Our service is available for print shops, sign companies, embroidery businesses, agencies, brands, and other production teams regardless of location.
