    192 px is not that big. Is that shown in the Transform panel? And the dimensions are the same in the Links panel?

    With converted you mean the image opened or placed (embedded?linked?) in Illustrator and autotraced?

    The file was created in photoshop and saved as a psd. I tried to open it in illustrator so i can save it as an ai file but it’s stating the file is too big.

    Saving an image as an Illustrator file will not make it an editable vector file, just an image in an Illustrator wrapper.

    Is it a complex layered file?
