j4str 9 Posted March 3, 2011 I have a graphic that im trying to make out of plain white vinyl. I got it made in color. But when i turn it into black and white, some of the shapes cross paths and i don't want cuts in my vinyl that doesn't need to be there. Can someone help me out? Every time i hit unite or a similar button, it does basicly the opposite of what i want to it to do waltscolor.ai waltsbw.ai Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roxanneupnorth 106 Posted March 3, 2011 How I do art like this is enlarge 300% or 400%, rasterize it, autotrace it and then remove the overlapping white objects.... waltsbw-simplified.ai Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

j4str 9 Posted March 4, 2011 try this so how did you go about it? Rastersizeing and autotrace would probably work too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
j4str 9 Posted March 4, 2011 i had to do a little adjusting to it, can you guys do it for this one? I tried rastersize and live trace and it gave me like 10,000 anchor points waltsbw2.ai Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roxanneupnorth 106 Posted March 4, 2011 I enlarged it ro 400% I rasterized it CMYK at 300 dpi I reduced the size to 25% I did a Live Trace - Mode was Black & White - Threshold 128 - Set to ignore white Expand Un group Use magic wand to select all white objects Then it was good to go waltsbw2-simplified.ai Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
