Jul 30, 2018 at 11:22 comment added Billy Kerr That isn't a good way to create vectors - as I said, Photoshop is not really the right software. I suppose you could use the Pen Tool to create the vectors manually, or alternatively you could import the graphic into vector software like Illustrator or Inkscape, and auto trace the image, then you could simplify the vectors if there are still too many anchors.

Jul 30, 2018 at 11:04 comment added Billy Kerr Can you possibly show what the problem is? Why do the paths have a large number of anchors? Did you create them that way? If so, the problem could be solved by creating paths with fewer anchors in the first place. Also, Photoshop has only very limited vector support. It wouldn't be my choice for creating vector images.
Jul 30, 2018 at 11:03 comment added Chris Rogers I am. I am vectorising using Photoshop. OK, not a true vectoring, but creating vector paths for layer masks which create a crisp "vector like" images when resized.
