I'm not sure what your asking for.  Any (file) created in Photoshop and put into another program is still going to be a bitmap (no matter the format you save it in).


A eps, psd, DCS1 or 2, .tif .pdf .jpg are all still a bitmap. Bitmap just means it's made up of pixels and not math like vector.


Maybe you want to convert it into vector art?  So, that should be a jpg, .tif or a psd to convert to vector (I would guess).

if you have made a font and want to use it in corel as a font then you must save each letter a a seperate bitmap.  and use a font creating program to make each letter of the font.  I use high logic font creator.  You can import the bitmaps into each letter space and then save as a ttf file to then be installed as a font.  Lot of work to do but that is why fonts can be so expensive.

Interesting. I didn't look at his post like that but you might be right. Good thought.




By the way,  I saw the sketch for your new fest tee.  Looks awesome!

Thanks for all the replies no I am not making an entire font collection just 2 words.... Dan I knew PS saved as bitmap but did not know if there was a way you could save it in a specific format to where you could ungroup in Corel without tracing. I got it done but was looking for an eaiser way.... or shortcut and after making the font with just 2 words I have figured out that the folks who make all those fonts don't get paid enough! no wonder they come up with some of those names they use there brain dead Thanks again for the help to all
