I am a freelance graphic designer on Upwork with 175+ jobs and a 100% JSS, but the market is not only saturated, demand also seems to have declined, mainly due to AI, as many clients can now handle smaller jobs themselves using AI and easy-to-use tools like Canva.

I am thinking about transitioning to n8n automation and related fields. Would you guys recommend this? What is the overall situation? Is the demand and pricing higher compared to graphic design?

Thanks in advance!

Anyone know a solid workflow for turning AI generated images into print ready files?

Been getting a lot of client work lately where they hand me an AI generated flyer or brochure and want it recreated for print. Text and icons I can handle fine but the complex illustrations and isometric stuff is where I keep getting stuck, resolution issues, weird bleed problems, that kind of thing.

Curious what others are doing for this. Do you upscale first or clean up the image first. Do you keep it raster or try to vectorize it. Any tools that actually work well for this specifically.

Appreciate any tips, trying to make this less of a headache.
