Midjourney outputs raster PNG files at 2048x2048 resolution (when upscaled). For billboards, high-DPI packaging, and merchandise, graphics must be converted to vector or upscaled to 8k:
1. Generation & Seed Lock
Generate the design with --style raw and clean background contrast (e.g. isolated on pure white background).
2. AI Background Removal
Use HiFiToolkit's AI Background Remover tool or Photoshop to extract the subject with alpha transparency.
3. Vectorization & Upscaling
Convert logos and illustrations into infinitely scalable SVG vectors via Vectorizer AI or run through Topaz Gigapixel for 300 DPI print output.
3. Commercial Terms, Copyright Law & Ownership
