why use PS in vector when theres AI? AI usually renders large file than PS. AI effects are limited labi na kong ipa vector tanan plus pantone colors. PS has lots of plug in effects.

How can I save an image in vector format with photoshop? - Yahoo! Answers

Although you can work with vector shapes in Photoshop, Photoshop itself is a pixel/raster based program. You cannot take an image created in Photoshop and just save it as a vector file. When you save the Photoshop image to one that can be printed, you would be flattening all your layers and rasterizing (converting to pixels) any vectors that you used. It's the nature of Photoshop.

You would need Adobe Illustrator to truly create vector-based images. There is a free alternative, it's called Inkscape. Here's the link to the FAQ about Inkscape.

reasons why use PS in creating vector than AI. But as the poster above said..all image in PS will be flattened except if you save it in pdf form...those vector objects you created in PS as long as it's in pdf once it's save, then AI can read that as vector still.

@TS you don't need to learn all the commands studyha lang kung unsay gamit kaayo nimo e anam2x lang aron d ka kalimot dayon sa command, I learned photoshop thru selfstudy ra pud naay daghan tutorial sa youtube, gudluck

TS first gyud learn the basics and the have your UI/workspace save pra di ka malimot. if hilig kag short cut, try to use default shortcut keys pra dili ka mawala bisan dili imong pc. one at a time lang gud sa imo learnings pra sulit gyud then i recommend practice gyud, find time to practice ayaw nang "if you have time".

try lynda.com man guro na..google it pra sure limot man gud ko hehehe..hinay net nko dri blay karon hehe

effective ba? mka learn raka or mas better mu take formal class?
if u made it through self study ra, mga how long pud para ma familiar ka and know the basics?

reminder lang If you are using photoshop for pp you might want to calibrate your monitor para makuha nimo ang insaktong color kung mahimo e apil ang printer profile.

ug naay 2 ka standard profile ani nga gitawag ug SRGB ug ADOBE RGB pagbantay ani.

self study is ok as long as your are disciplined enough to practice hours a day or line sa imong work or passion nimo.

for me i started using PS 7.0 karon PS CS5 na hahahaha and karon im looking for an institution nga mga tudlo nako with certification...very important ang certified ka nga PS user pra nako.
