Illustrator

Move paths from Photoshop to Illustrator

  1. In Photoshop, use the Path Component Selection tool or the Direct Selection tool to select the paths you want to move.

    You can select any path or path segment that appears in the Paths panel, including shape vector masks, work paths, and saved paths. For more information on selecting paths, see Photoshop Help.

  2. Either copy and paste or drag the path to Illustrator.
  3. In the Paste Options dialog box, choose whether to paste the path as a compound shape or a compound path. Pasting as a compound path is faster, but may result in some loss of editability.
    To import all paths (but no pixels) from a Photoshop document, choose File > Export > Paths To Illustrator (in Photoshop). Then open the resulting file in Illustrator.
