Default Photoshop advice needed?

I am wanting to get some stickers printed for my rear windows. I have a guy who lives accross the road who will do it for pence, but the file I have is not a vector graphic.

Does anyone know what is the best way to trace or convert the photoshop graphic or jpeg into an vector EPS?

I assume the sticker is just going to be one color? Is it a picture of some sort, or just text?

to convert graphics so they can be cut in vinyl you're best converting them to .eps files.

I had some graphics made a while ago and basically made a load of eps files which is the exact format most graphics places use. They are scalable and do not have the jaggered edges that the Plotter/Cutter would try to follow.

I have 1000's of these eps files so if you think I may have what you want then let me know mate.

I used Adobe Illustrator 10 to convert to .eps files btw.

Hang on........ i though I was the one asking for help?

The image is to be text (well a rip off of a well know car seat company) The file started life as a jpg. I have been told that an eps is only useful for cut out lettering if it is a vectored eps.



I wonder if any of you clever so-and-so's can fiddle with this and convert it to a vector graphic suitable for cut out vinyl stickers. (white vinyl with no background)
