Hello.

I wondered if anyone can help. I am trying to copy an illustrator vector file and pasted into photoshop and it pixelates. I have tried to place embedded, place link and copy and paste but happens with all of these. This never happened before, but have just update to the recent CC and having this issue. Any ideas to stop this happening would be much appreciated or is it just one of the bugs that updating brings?

Cheers.

Hi Barbara.

Thanks for helping on this. I have selected the layer with the vector, but the Anti-alias is not in the top bar?

Any ideas? I am using Photoshop CC 2019.

Cheers.

Mike.


If you highlight the layer and choose Edit > Transform, once the bounding box shows up you should see the Anti-alias checkbox.

When you paste, choose Smart Object.

Hi Barbara.

Thanks for your reply. This function is selected but the vectors are still pixelate.

Cheers.
