You can move your traced image next to original image and this traced image will be in vector format. This option has Threshold limit and by changing its value you can have different result in tracing of bitmap.Ĭlick on Update button of this dialog box for seeing preview of tracing result.Īnd in preview section of this box you can see result but we just want to trace outline of this character so we will adjust threshold limit for tracing just outline.įor image threshold value will be this. Here we have many ways to trace a bitmap (if you want to know each and every way of tracing bitmap of this dialog box then you can search for ‘Inkscape trace bitmap’ article of mine) but we will go with first one which is Brightness cutoff. Or if you have access to Illustrator it can export the paths to SVG.Or you can make right click then choose Trace Bitmap option from pop up list.
(which is pretty much the same as what that plugin you linked to would have done). Or if you really are talking about just getting the paths from a PSD file (ignoring all the other possible content) then you can export the paths as. So, your options are either to export to PNG and then import it as a bitmap into the SVG file and then eithe rleave it as btmap object which is only useful in some special cases) or try to vectorize it (which only works well for graphics with clear detail and limited colors). You can vectorize a bitmap image but that depends on manually adjusting settings to get a decent approximation, and depending on source image you will loose details in the process (and more often than not will still need to do manual editing and tracing to get a good result). You will only loose any possible layers you have (which you'd loose in the process anyway).Ĭreating a plugin to do such job automatically wouldn't be possible, PSD primarily a bitmap image format with very limited vector support, while SVG is a vector format, so direct conversion is not possible.
PNG is a lossless format (and supports up to 16 bit per color modes, color profiles and everything else) so no, you won't loose any quality by converting to PNG.
