| DRAWings® Demo D : |
Create A Design From a Scanned Bmp Pixel Artwork |
Step 1: We know that DRAWings® creates embroidery
designs based on pure vector files. Therefore, we have to first
convert a scanned-in pixel file into a vector file. The quality
of the original image dictates how good the vector result will
be, and how much editing may be needed before generating stitches.
Now let's open a bmp file in CorelDRAW®, as shown below. |
|
|
|
Step 2:
On the top main menu, click "Bitmaps" and "Trace Bitmaps".
This will open the CorelTRACE application inside CorelDRAW®. |

|
|
|
Step 3:
From the CorelTRACE window, select a proper trace option
and click the "Trace" icon. The auto trace will create a
vector file, as shown on the right side of the window below. |

|
|
|
| Step 4:
Simply close the Trace window and click the "Save" icon, the
vector file is ready in DRAWings® window as shown below: |
|
|
|
Step 5: Click the "Stitch" Tab for the stitch
result. |
|
|
|
| Step 6:
Let's take a closer look at the final design from top to bottom. |
