What changes when you convert WEBP to AI
- The AI file wraps your picture at its original pixel size. It opens in vector and design tools, but the image is not traced into editable paths, so it does not become infinitely scalable.
- Both formats support transparency, so see-through areas stay transparent.
- AI stores a single image, so an animated WEBP keeps only its first frame.
