Hi,

You can also look at this page:
http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/SVG-Implementations.htm8#convert

I used CR2V (http://www.celinea.com/) and this works for me.

Adobe has a product called Streamline that is a starting place to convert
raster images to vector images. You probably need some other tools (like
Illustrator or another vector editing package) to clean the image up, and to
convert it to SVG (Streamline hasn't been updated in quite a while &
probably predates SVG). This is not a straightforward operation. I think a
lot of graphics professionals use tracing tools to do the same sort of
thing. It may be better in many cases (depending on the image) to start from
scratch with a vector editing tool.
