1. In Adobe Illustrator, specify preferences for the copy-and-paste behavior:

To automatically rasterize the art when pasting it into a Photoshop document, turn off the PDF and the AICB (No Transparency Support)
options in the File Handling & Clipboard preferences.

To paste the art as a Smart Object, rasterized image, path, or shape layer, turn on the PDF and the AICB (No Transparency Support)
options in the File Handling & Clipboard preferences.

2. Open a file in Adobe Illustrator, select the art you want to copy, and choose Edit > Copy.

3. In Photoshop, open the document that you want to paste the Adobe Illustrator art into and then choose Edit > Paste.

If the PDF and the AICB (No Transparency Support) options are turned off in the File Handling & Clipboard preferences of Adobe

Illustrator, the art is automatically rasterized as it’s pasted into the Photoshop document. You can skip the rest of the steps in this procedure.

4. In the Paste dialog box, select how you want to paste the Adobe Illustrator art and then click OK:

Pastes the art as a Vector Smart Object that can be scaled, transformed, or moved without degrading the image. As the art

is placed, its file data is embedded in the Photoshop document on a separate layer.

Pastes the art as pixels that can be scaled, transformed, or moved before it is rasterized and placed on its own layer in the

Photoshop document.

Pastes the art as a path that can be edited with the pen tools, Path Selection tool, or Direct Selection tool. The path is pasted into the

layer that’s selected in the Layers panel.

Pastes the art as a new shape layer (a layer containing a path filled with the foreground color).

5. If you selected Smart Object or Pixels in the Paste dialog box, make any transformations you wish, and then click Enter or Return to place

the art.
