You can create vector shapes using various drawing tools, including Adobe® Flash®. Most Flash authoring tools convert bitmap images to vector shapes. In Adobe Flash, you can control how the tracing is performed and the quality of the result.

The Plazmic® Composer supports solid fills and pattern fills. Gradient fills are not supported. Linear and radial gradient fills are converted to a solid fill whose color is based on the color of the first gradient control point.
