Preparing artwork for laser engraving using Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator.

Updated: Aug 5, 2020


We have all had customers who submit their logo or artwork to us for laser engraving only to find out that the only art work they have is a low resolution copy of a copy that just inst going to work for laser engraving. In this V-log video tutorial I will show you how I prepare almost all my art work using Adobe Photoshop CC and Adobe Illustrator CC to upscale art work to a higher resolution and then use Adobe Illustrators "Live Trace" feature to make clean high resolution vectors ready fro laser engraving on any substrate.
