How to convert a .psd file into .ai (adobe illustrator)

[Alixman9841]

Hi Guys,

I have a very high quality multi layer .psd file that I need to convert to adobe illustrator in order to export them into autocad.

As I'm very in exprienced, Ive tried to merge the layers in the psd file and then use Export -> 'Path to Illustrator', however when I open the newly created .ai file, it open a dialog box called 'Convert to Artboards' and whatever option i choose (either Legacy Artboard or Crop Area(s)' my new illustrator file seems to be empty.

I appreciate any file anyone can offfer.

Best Regards

Alex.

i tried it right now , so easy

i exported from photoshop layers separated as png file , then you select one layer and choose object/image trace/make and expand ,so it will be illustrated , now you can modify it

i hope it may help
