Creating Outlines in Illustrator Question - Please Reply ASAP

I have a logo that I have to animate in Flash 5, but I don't have the font and I don't know what it is.
I have a Photoshop file of the logo. How do I transport it into Illustrator and create an outline of it so I can use it as an image in Flash?

Thanks

hi

in flash also u can do really very good traceing and scatching. like illustrator and coreldraw. it is easy to draw logos and scatches in flash.

if u have logo in psd file

solution 1:

--> u can convert it in jpg
--> import in flash
--> use Magic wand option under lasso tool to remove unwanted part of logo


solution 1:
--> u can convert it in jpg
--> import in flash
--> draw the outlines useing line tool on the logo and select unwanted part and delete it.


i think this will solve ur problem

if u still have any doubt reply me

For a logo, that presumably some customer cares about, nothing will do except to patiently draw it.

If the logo is on it's own layer, (not flattened) you can import the psd
file right into flash.
If it's flattened, your sol, time to dust off the pen tool :)

If the logo is high res, use the magic wand tool in Photoshop to isolate it from the background.
