When you say, 'export the clipping path', can you spell out the detail a little. I tried a Copy/Paste into a new doc, without success.   :undecided:
As you say, the vector info's there, even if it's only a Clipping Path. Gotta be a relatively easy way to 'convert' it. just not in my skill set yet.    :laugh:

Depending on how good the clipping path is, I sometimes export the clipping path to Illustrator, open it there and redo the fill.
On something like that, though I usually try to recreate it using real type, if I can get a good match.


I think what Captain_Type means is if you have a clipping path in Photoshop. To export the path to Illustrator:
In Photoshop, Go to File > Export > Paths to Illustrator. Then open the new file in Illustrator.
