Converting .psd file (with layers with a vector mask) to .ai file as vector layers

Hi everyone!

I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to convert a .psd file made up of layers with a vector mask (and shape drawn with the pen tool) to an Illustrator file with vector layers?

Thanks very much!

It would have been better to use shape layers in Photoshop. Those transfer to vector shapes. Of course: no blend modes on the layers.

Your only chance to do this is just open the PSD fiole in Illustrator and in the import dialog box, convert layers to objects.

Thanks Monika! I will give it a try and see if it works. Thanks again for your help! 🙂
