Vector Magic was originally a foolproof online bitmap image vectorization service, as a research project of Artificial Intelligence Laboratory at Stanford University, James Diebel and Jacob Norda was responsible for the development.
Vector Magic Desktop Edition (short for VMDE) is the desktop edition of this application introduced based on its online edition's technology, but along with more powerful and perfect features. No doubt, VMDE is the most useful, efficient and easiest to use bitmap-vector conversion/editing software that AppNee have ever used and known. I personally think it is better and much more practical, powerful than many famous vector software, for example, Inkscape, Adobe Illustrator, CorelDRAW and Xara Designer.
Vector Magic Desktop Edition enables users to fully-automatically convert bitmap images (like JPEG, GIF and PNG) to the crisp, clean, scalable vector art of EPS, SVG, PDF, AI, DXF and EMF that works seamlessly with Illustrator, CorelDRAW and others with just simple clicks. So that it saves us time and money to get your artwork ready to print, embroider, cut and more!
