Hey everyone. I have a simple png image, which is a yin/yang symbol with four solid colors. I want to convert it to a Ilustrator file with four objects from the four color segments. Can I do that?

You could draw up the four objects with the Pen tool and "Export paths to Illustrator". Then open it in Ai and color them there.

 

But it's much easier to open the file in Illustrator and do it all there.

 

There is no way to output paths with fill and stroke from Photoshop.

    Thanks for your help with this. I'll give it a go in Illustrator then. Could you point me in the right direction with how to do it in Illustrator?
