When you get png image?

[@capsurlescrap7571]

Hello How big is your procreate file? and in what file format is it saved?
And do I have to save all layers from procreate to vectorize on illustrator? Sorry my english is not perfect. Thank you for your help

[@bycristinasilvia]

I usually use 6 x 6 in at 300 dpi, but the size doesn't matter that much if you vectorize your illustrations. I want to make a tutorial about vectorizing Procreate patterns. Hopefully, it will be available soon.

[@capsurlescrap7571]

@@bycristinasilvia thank you ... and you save in what file format?

[@bycristinasilvia]

@@capsurlescrap7571 from Procreate? I save in pdf usually because it has a better quality than jpeg.

[@roxannetamberlane6501]

I wish it would have been shown how to crop everythihng and get it into swatches. I'm hoping to get a job where they need me to know how to do this both manually, and with the pattern tool both.

[@CindyJonesHulfachor]

You don't need to crop everything. Export the pattern out as a jpeg and check the box to export out the artboard.

[@manisha-colorcreativityartwork]

Hil. Will it be same thing for Photoshop?

[@bycristinasilvia]

It's the same idea, but Photoshop works a bit differently. I will make a tutorial for it soon.

[@manisha-colorcreativityartwork]

@@bycristinasilvia yes pls. Thanks

[@Athikan]

@@bycristinasilvia Yes please, I don't have illustrator so I only rely on Photoshop

[@divyasampath2811]

Sorry can you explain me again what to do for raster images??

[@bycristinasilvia]

You will have to embed them when you import them in Illustrator or vectorize them if that's possible. I will make a tutorial about using raster images in Illustrator, but I don't know how soon that will be.
