No matter what I do I can't get my inkscape file to vector cut on my local epilogue printer. I've read some places this is common with inkscape and the only way to actually vector a image is exporting it to different apps? My file isn't even a complex image either it's just 2d black and white to. I've tried looking everywhere and from what I can gather the general consensus is that there is no fix and it's a fairly common problem and to just suck it up and export it? It's even weirder because the file was vector cutting at a different place I sent it to whom just failed to scale it right. =/ I feel like inkscape should make this a easy and straight forward thing not this like impossible to figure out deal. It's like literally the entire end game purpose of their app XD
This is the first video I've found that actually had the trace end up with a full color output! Thank you! As for the other things, it was nice how you explained each option even if you weren't going to use it. Nicely done! 😃😊😃💥
I am new to Inkscape and spent a long time trying to trace an image to convert it to a vector. If I had watched this video straight away I would have saved myself hours of faffing about. Great video, thank you.
Hi teacher, first thank you for your video. I have a problem .I use this method for vectorizing my image but after exporting the quality doesn't change and the picture is not different from its first quality, what should I do?
@@ArdentDesigns Export/Save...whatever, but you left out details. I watched another video AFTER yours where she went into better detail about EXPORTING it.
Exactly the tool I need. But I just downloaded and don't have "show preview" option and version looks very old. I downloaded v1.1 (2021) , what version is this?
Quick question I love how you teach & I’ve really would love to take your Inkscape course but every time I click on the link it keeps telling me this page is unavailable?? Did you remove it or something? Thank you so much for your knowledge
so you don/t need to put image on a new layer? would this be the same as converting the image into paths? is scans same thing as layers any idea how this affects image for printing purposes for print on demand. thanks
This was super simple thanks!! Especially the grouping/ungrouping! I would like to know what size and format do you save this image? I’m doing textiles and need to save as pdf for printing? Thank you!!!
I can only see one unanswered question about this on a forum. As I understand it, Inkscape needs XQuartz to run on Mac so perhaps there is incompatibility in some areas.
Great video. How do you do this if you're wanting to just pull an image of one person out of a group picture and just vectorize that one person within the group picture? So I have a picture that doesn't have a white background, and just want to use one person from that picture and then make a vectorized image of them. Thanks again!
You would need to use the pen tool to trace a shape over the person. Then select the shape and image and go to object--> clip-->set. You would need to export the result as png and then drag it back in to Inkscape. Then vectorize. Good luck!
@@ArdentDesignsThank you. That worked and erased the background. How do I then save the file so that it just captures the image, and not the square background? I want to import it into another photo, but when I do it will bring the image in with the background square white box, and then square box with cover up other parts of the photo. Thanks!!
@@ArdentDesigns It's still show the box around them, though it is transparent, it leave the outline of the box in the wood carving. Do you have a video on how this is done?
My experience is that Inkscape doesn't match the colors well. You can really see it if you use a few scans on something with just a few colors (e.g. a JPEG of a silkscreen.) Increasing the number of scans may help that.
Let me know if you guys have any questions, and thanks for watching!
Hi, thanks for the video, it was very helpfull. Should I save as inkscape svg or sgv flat? Is there any difference?

which version of Inkscape you have to use .
@@muhammadasimyousaf9868 Use the latest version. You'll get all the new updated features.
@@eren7056 It seems the newest version has a different UI now for Bitmap, Doesnt seem to perform the same either. What do u guys think?
This is the first video I've found that actually had the trace end up with a full color output! Thank you!
As for the other things, it was nice how you explained each option even if you weren't going to use it. Nicely done!
😃😊😃💥
raster to vector is a very complex task, but you made it very simple. thank u so much.
You are welcome :)
@@ArdentDesigns I need to victorise an image with its full colors so how?
I am new to Inkscape and spent a long time trying to trace an image to convert it to a vector. If I had watched this video straight away I would have saved myself hours of faffing about. Great video, thank you.
Isn't that always the way? Oh, well. At least you got it figured out 🙂
Thank you, that is exactly what I want to use Inkscape for.

This is a fantastic, very well explained and to the point video. Thank you.
Very good. Short and to the point. Thank you.
awesome! You're welcome :)
Great video - thanks for the explanation about the layers, now I can experiment with different colors etc.
You are welcome :) It is a very handy tool for sure!
Wow.. that is awesome, thank you for sharing. I am an artist and use Linux, and have always wanted to learn about vectoring.
Thank you so much! You helped me solved a huge problem for me! I so appreciate !!!!
May the universe blessing you!!!🙏🙏🙏❤❤⚘⚘⚘⚘😄😁
This is exactly what I was looking for - Thank you!!!
a very nice feature of inkscape, very well explained
Hi thank you for this vedio..I am new to designing..its helping me a lot.
So very simply put. Thank you.
You're very welcome 🙂
Omg.... thank you. Thank you, thank you!!! This has helped on a level I cannot accurately articulate. Thank you 💖❤️🔥💫
What version on Inkscape is this? My version does not have the screen your clicking on to “ live preview”
The new version docent have it the button update is the replacement
Great tutorial! Quick and gets right to the point
Thanks this was very simple and EXTREMELY Helpful! I appreciate your assistance!
Thank you so much for sharing this information, great tutorial.👍😃
You're very welcome 🙂
thank you very much this is great tutorial making! straight to the point and well displayed thank you again!
Glad it helped :)
So helpful!! Thank you!!! I just started using Inkscape and I feel like I can do what I wanted to do with it originally now!! Thanks!
Beautiful tutorial 🙏
Very well done. Clear and concise. Thanx!
Thank you soooooo much. I really appreciate you made this video.
Hi teacher, first thank you for your video. I have a problem .I use this method for vectorizing my image but after exporting the quality doesn't change and the picture is not different from its first quality, what should I do?
So, what if you DO want it as a black & white picture? Not sure what to do with brightness cutoff.
Thank you for this tutorial!
You're welcome!
So, what about saving the image?
Assume you mean export image? File-->export image name file destination and click export.
@@ArdentDesigns Export/Save...whatever, but you left out details. I watched another video AFTER yours where she went into better detail about EXPORTING it.
@@ArdentDesigns There was a time when you didn't know how to do this whole process either. Poorly made tutorials drive me nuts.
@@AFateSoTwisted The video has nothing to do with exporting, only vectorizing an image. I'm glad you found what you were looking for.
@@ArdentDesigns this was a great tutorial. Very well explained! Thank you.
Seems people have difficulty reading video titles.
You make me save a lot ,thank you thank you thank you !!!!!!!!!!! God bless you!!!
Thanks for this. Easy as pie with your tutorial!!!!
You 're welcome :) and thanks for the feedback.
if we use this technique in t shirt printing , the quality of the print is good ?
The final result Will be infinitely scalable. You can't print the image on a Building 😉 if you want.
Exactly the tool I need. But I just downloaded and don't have "show preview" option and version looks very old. I downloaded v1.1 (2021) , what version is this?
The updated version video is in the description. You'll find it's better 🙂
Now that's extremely cool.
It is pretty cool :)
Nice tutorial keep up the good work GBU
Thanks Kevin! Glad it was helpful :)
Wooow it helped me a lot, thanks ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😍😍
Great tutorial!
Quick question
I love how you teach & I’ve really would love to take your Inkscape course but every time I click on the link it keeps telling me this page is unavailable?? Did you remove it or something? Thank you so much for your knowledge
My inkspace does not show such iption
Look in the description of this video for the updated video to Inkscape 1.0
so you don/t need to put image on a new layer? would this be the same as converting the image into paths? is scans same thing as layers any idea how this affects image for printing purposes for print on demand. thanks
Thank you!! I appreciate it!
you're welcome!
Should have probably mentioned how to save out the vector image but good enough either way
Thanks your a good teacher.
Thanks Roy!
_what a great tutorial_
did this change in the software inkscape 1.0 ?? I Cannot seem to get it to perform like you are
Good question! Check the link in description. I posted an updated tutorial because so many people asked :)
Thank you I have been trying to figure out how to do this !!
For Inkscape 1.0 they hid it under Multiple Scans. So you just click the Multiple Scans button and work from there.
Hey, thanks for letting me know there was an update! They even added round corner widget (fillet/chamfer), I'm really pleased about that :)
thanks you made that simple!
Once you. Make the vector is it possible to ad text to the design
Sure. Just go to the text tool and type what you like.
This was super simple thanks!! Especially the grouping/ungrouping! I would like to know what size and format do you save this image? I’m doing textiles and need to save as pdf for printing? Thank you!!!
Anything for print should be saved at 300 dpi. As for size, ask your printer for their needs. If pdf is needed, then that is the format to save to.
there isnt any preview and nothing looks like what you are doing in inkscape
Check the description for the link to the updated video. It will help!
Thank you so much, nice one for beginners..
You are welcome. Glad it was helpful :)
Do we save the created thing just like that or anything specific to set there?
Very cool, thank you!
You're welcome Diego :)
which version of Inkscape you have to use .
Thank you Mam for this amazing tutorial 👍👍😊
There is no "Live Preview" checkbox on Inkscape v1.0 for Mac.
I can only see one unanswered question about this on a forum. As I understand it, Inkscape needs XQuartz to run on Mac so perhaps there is incompatibility in some areas.
very usefull and complete! Thanks

I make it How can I know how to see resolution THANK YOU
it is in png when exported! how to get svg?
File-->Save as-->Inkscape SVG.
Can Inkscape 'tidy up' jagged edges on logos when they are vectorised, or are other stages required?
This was very helpful.
Brilliant! Very helpful! Thank you!
Thank You! That was very helpful

Great job!
How do you save as a vector image?
Thanks for your video
you're welcome :)
thanks for this !
what does it mean if trace Bitmap doesn't work?
Nice and easy. Thanks.
Yes I liked from Sao Paulo Brazil South America :) .
u do not tell us how to convert n save the vector
why are more scans bad?
what version siftware did u use
My Preview wont show up, what am i doing wrong?
Awesome!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH MAN!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Haha.. you're welcome 🙂
That was helpful
HELPFUL AF!! THANK YOU!
Very useful 👍
awesome, thank you!
can you please help with cp logo
Wow
Thank you
What file format do you save it as?
You can save it as svg if you wish to work on it again or export it as a png for use on whatever. Depends what you want to do.
I can be wrong but i feel like inkscape's vectorization is more advanced and user friendly than illustrator's vectorization tool
wow this good for my class
When I vector a jpg with trace, the colors go flat. If I want to brighten them to original do I have to ungroup layers?
My experience is that Inkscape doesn't match the colors well. You can really see it if you use a few scans on something with just a few colors (e.g. a JPEG of a silkscreen.) Increasing the number of scans may help that.
Thank you so much!! :D
