the slightly whiter "fafafa" did not work, again giving transparent areas (for 32 colors - I assume this depends on number of colors requested). Finding the whitest successful value required some experimentation - i.e. Using "method two" from Billy Kerr succeeded after changing the "near-white" to "f7f7f7". Sorry for the tardy response, took awhile to work through this.
PS: white area need to be white so logo can be placed a non-white background So cannot find a way to create a vector image from this logo containing "white" (or "near-white") and am hoping some more experienced user can provide a method of doing so. But to my surprise, the near-white area was again not traced, resulting in a transparent area. treat "white" as an actual color to be traced ala all the other colors - but could not find anything that worked.įinally I altered the PNG being imported to replace all its "white" #ffffff with near-white #fefefe, thinking that would not be considered "background". I tried many different variations hoping to stumble up something which which fix this behaviour, i.e. I used an editor to remove the graphic section, but found the resulting SVG then displays the original "white" areas as transparent, not white. (I had been expecting it to be removed with selection of "Remove background"). The white areas still appeared white - but when I saved as a SVG and examined with editor I saw that the graphic is still included. This is my first use of inkscape.įollowing other on-line procedures, after importing PNG I used 'Select All' and 'Trace Bitmap' with "Multiple scans: Colors: 32", "Stack scans", and "Remove background". Am trying to create a vector image since many places prefer such for inclusion with other logos, etc. You can run autotrace online if you want to try it out.I have a PNG logo on a transparent background which has areas of pure white (#ffffff) and also pure black in addition to a wide assortment of other colors (logo includes a topo map).
I can then convert that image into a SVG vector image. I prefer the "AutoTrace" as it does not scale the resulting SVG, producing a standard line thickness, however you can not use it in a 'pipeline'.įor best results it is a good idea to ensure we only feed it a basic bitmap image, which we can ensure by thresholding the input image, while we convert it to a image format autotrace understands.
They have a limited number of input formats, and outputs a vector image which will create a 'smoothed' form of the input image. Other suggestions are welcome.īoth trace programs are simple to use, but requires some pre and post image setup.

But a free solution is " AutoTrace" or " PoTrace". Most of these however cost a lot of money. Programs that can do this include: "ScanFont", "CorelTrace" and "Streamline" by Abobe. From the edge_vector section, which begins by saying, essentially, for best results, don't use imagemagick:
#Inkscape trace bitmap higher resolution how to#
The imagemagick Usage docs have a good explanation of how to perform edge detection and raster to vector conversion. Open in Illustrator and adjust as needed.Export as *.ai (Adobe Illustrator file).Then, choose the options from the window that opened. Select the entire picture (Ctrl+A) and then click Modify – Bitmap - Trace bitmap.Choose File >Import > Import to stage (Ctrl+R) and find the (bitmap graphic), which you want to convert into a vector one.Method 2 - Using Adobe Flash & Illustrator The image should now be vectorized and you can retouch as needed and resizing will maintain quality since it has been vectorized.Select the image and go to Object > Live Paint or Live Trace (in your case live paint might be better since drawing is not your forte).and find the logo file (I can't recall if the image has to be a specific format) Select File > New from the menu and setup the layout as needed.Adobe does provide 30 day trials on both.

There are 2 options that I have used, but they require software that is not on the cheap side.
