I am looking for a way to convert pixel based images to vector. I believe this can be done in Illustrator, but am not quite sure how. I often have work from Photoshop that I later need to convert. What type of file should I save it as (from Photoshop) to then import it into Illustrator.. a tif file maybe? Sometimes I am given a jpg - can that be changed to a vector in Illustrator? Then how would I go about changing the work to vector once in there? I am not very good with Illustrator so I find that I have to do my work elsewhere first.
I appreciate any respectful help.

You can do that by exporting from Photoshop and save it as extension file .ai and open that file in Illustrator.

You can read more about it here:

I agree with LastMitch, but some time it doesn't produce exact result what we are looking for.
