I received one document from a graphist, done in Ilustrator. Look at the A, why do I have pixels here, although this is vectorized ?

I thought it was ok, but when I import it in AE for animation it's not good at all... I should have miss something in Illustrator

I am trying to edit the logo to my website Materiais de Construção | TudopraObra: Guia de Materiais de Construção

    Hi there,

    As per your query, logo on the website is created in Illustrator but when you edit it in AE it's pixelated. Is that correct?

    If yes, then I would second Monika's statement. It is a PNG, which is a raster format.  The artwork you create in Illustrator is definitely vector however when it is exported to PNG/ JPEG it becomes a raster image and would definitely get pixelated if it is exported with a low-resolution value. If you want to edit in AE use original Ai file instead of exported PNG.

    Hope it helps!
