Vector export problem

[natse]

Hi everyone!:-)

I've got a pro version , but somehow I just can't find a way of exporting vectors. Could someone help me with this issue please?

I have the same problem.. I've bought the program, but how do you vector export?

[livebrush]

Vector export is in the File menu:
File>Export>Export Line(s) as SVG

Just note that only the lines can be exported to vector. Many decorations are bitmaps and can't be converted to vector. However - I am working on way to get the vector decos out as SVG as well.

Export Solution:
Ok, I will write a more detailed method later.
Basic Method:

After drawing something you may have more than one layer in LiveBrush.
Make sure you select, highlight, every layer you wanted to export BEFORE next step.
Under the File Menu select Export then choose, Export Line(s) to SVG
Name the “__.svg” file and save it wherever you can find it easily
Adobe Illustrator can read SVG files and the images WILL be vector graphics that you can edit within Ai.
To use in Photoshop, save the Ai file as an Ai file “__.ai” and PS will bring it in as a high-resolution image (you choose i.e. 300 dpi, RGB etc. during import to PS from Ai).

Alternatively, you can COPY the Ai vector graphic(s) and PASTE into Photoshop choosing (Smart Object, Pixels, Path, Shape Layer.) Some of these methods allow you to use the Direct Selection tool and the Bezier Curve/Points editing tools afterwards.
Enjoy, experiment and share success!

Floral Basic and Live Branches

After drawing something you may have more than one layer in LiveBrush.
Make sure you select, highlight, every layer you wanted to export BEFORE next step.
Under the File Menu select Export then choose, Export Layers(s) to Image
You probably don’t want the “Paper” image or Background layers; deselect them
Name the “__.png” file and save it wherever you can find it easily
Photoshop can read PNG files but the images will be raster/bitmap images until you go to Adobe Illustrator and fix that
While in PS, change the image size Edit>Image Size to a larger resolution such as 300 dpi or even 600 dpi (This will Help Ai get more detail when converting to a vector image)
Save As a PSD not PNG this time
Adobe Illustrator CAN read Photoshop files

NOW THE FUN BEGINS

Open Ai and learn about LiveTrace, a rather complicated feature that will turn, with some tweaking, those images into vector graphics. Of course the result will be different but these images are scalable and editable and THAT is the point to all this work.
Most of these images will respond to black and white rendering within Ai (LiveTrace) but some need to use the Grayscale or Color features (experiment)

Enjoy, experiment and share success!

Works with the following:
Floral Basic
Floral Basic Thick Ends
Floral Basic Leaf
Floral Basic 2
Floral Graphic Empty
Floral Graphic Collage
Life Branches Thin
Life Branches Thick
Ligatures
Sketchy
Ink Splats
