Illustrator Text to Vector

Illustrator text to vector allows you to use text prompts to generate various vector based designs.

I have found that text to vector is great for ideating and getting started, but doesn’t necessarily generate vectors that are fully usable or exactly what I have in mind. 

Simply describe the subject, scene, icon, or pattern you want, and the tool will quickly generate a variety of design options for you to explore. Experiment with the different variants and select the one that aligns best with your artwork.

Use the Selection tool to select the artwork that will be replaced by the generated artwork. Or, add a rectangle using the Rectangle tool and select it.

Then, select one of the following options from the properties panel. Choose a vector graphic type   :

Subject: Generates a vector element that is high in detail without a background

Scene: Generates an entire vector scene

Icon: Generates a vector element that is low in detail without a background for icon sets and logos
