Re: [Framers] Using vector images in Frame
Interesting! Converting a raster image to vector format usually is fraught with problems, so I wonder how well these folks do it. They claim to do JPG -> SVG conversions too. (Of course, converting from vector to raster is normal - "on the fly" from vector to display or print during the rendering provides the best outcome, of course.)

Re: [Framers] Using vector images in Frame
Hmmm ... PNG is not a vector format - it is a bitmap ("raster") too. So, I am not sure what format your illustrator actually provided!

Re: [Framers] Using vector images in Frame
No idea what your illustrator gave you, but a PNG is not a vector format. Like JPG, it is a raster format.

Re: [Framers] Using vector images in Frame
I have another image my illustrator provided...apparently it's a vector PNG. If I add it to the FM file and then Publish it to HTML5, the image loses sharpness when I zoom up the HTML. Apparently Frame rasterizes it during the publication process? Is there a way to make Frame not rasterize images? If I replace the rasterized image when the original vector PNG, I can zoom up the HTML without losing clarity.
