xpfguy 39 Posted January 10, 2014 would anyone please share their custom trace setting that might help me trace lower resolution images. I play around with setting but usually end up with a very jagged trace and about a million nodes. thanks, jason Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skarekrow 1,842 Posted January 11, 2014 Jason, I Played with it in Illustrator and yes, the best I could come up with in colors was kinda wonky. I switched up and traced it as black and white with slightly better results... the settings I used (in CS3) are as follows; threshold 62, path fitting 1.5px, min area 5px, corner angle 20. these settings produced 44 paths with 311 anchors. At this point I should disclose that I rarely use Illustrator for tracing so others may have better results. I am much more proficient with Inkscape and the file yielded very good results with both color and b&w outputs. The above applies to the Navy Chief graphic request you posted here 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
