I’ve been on RUclips for over 10 years now, and I must say - this is the greatest video I have ever seen. Has made my life significantly easier as an aspiring NFT developer.
Honestly this is. the BEST tutorial for SVG I have ever seen. I can't believe how much fluffing around I have been doing all this time. THANK YOU THANK. YOU THANK YOU!
You are a genius!!!! I have watched so many videos trying to convert to svg and by far this has been the simplest one. Great job. Keep the tutorials coming.
Thank you for this! I use SVG files for 3D printing and have had trouble converting JPEGs or PNGs to SVG until now (except for using those wonky online converters). Kudos to you!
*I'm always happy to point you in the right direction regarding questions about Adobe Captivate. If you need more than a simple question answered, you can purchase a one-hour one-on-one session with me at **bit.ly/Cp1on1**. If you only use some of that time, that's okay. You can bank any unused time (15-minute increments) for future sessions. For example, if you use 30 minutes, you can use 30 minutes later.*
Thanks for the to-the-point tutorial, as a developer with bare minimum design skills your tutorial helped me to get an SVG made from my PNG logo in less than a minute. Thank you!.
By no means am I an Adobe Illustrator expert. As an freelance eLearning person I keep it installed on my system because I will get files from clients that I can only open inside of Illustrator. Knowing one or two workflows in Illustrator is handy when this happens. My experience with Photoshop started the same way. I learned how to do one or two things and then those things became four or five, and so on. Now I consider myself adept at using Photoshop.
Right On!! Thanks for not having a 30 second Hip-Hop intro!! I got my pencil out and took notes. Trying to create 3D artwork using a few different methods and was having a hell of a time figuring out how to use Illustrator's trace function. Maybe now I can get busy here. Thanks!!

awesome!! Just for me it got 95% correct, some spots it missed for some reason EDIT: fixed it by using low fidelity mode, if you have this issue try different presets
Hey Paul, thanks for the great video. Any idea how I could stop the SVG image to develop thin white lines along the paths? I had some highlighted areas which now have light lines around them. Should I just try and use images that are less complicated in terms of their coloring?
I would load it up in illustrator and edit those out if you want to get rid of them. Not a big Illustrator guy but you can hide and show layers and manipulate items as well.

I am trying this with a png file, but when I do the first trace command the image goes to all white and it looks like a blank sheet of paper. The image is just a name with a special font and I am doing this on a Mac.
For this to work there needs to be sufficient contrast between the foreground and background. I also recommend that your original image needs to be very high resolution to get the desired result.
If you're using this to create pixel art... as in 16x16 sized Super Mario Bros. svg from sprite sheets, you first want to enlarge each image to 100,000% and align them to the grid (set grid cells to 1pixel in Preferences). Now you'll get a proper trace... start with converting to raster under Object > Rasterize. Then open an Image Trace window... set the Preset to Custom, View to Tracing Result, Mode to Color, Palette to Limited, Colors to 30, Advanced Paths too 100%, Corners to 100%, Noise to 100%, select the first Method, Options - Snap Curves to Lines and then Trace.
"Colors" number seems to matter, when dealing with gradients. And sadly, 30 is sometimes too low. Wanted to convert a few icons with gradient backgrounds and tracing ruined them
Hi Paul, thanks for the great tutorial. I am having trouble, though, with too much white space on top and bottom of my converted logo. The .png file started out as a banner shaped image (a rectangle shape). But when I go through the steps, open the .svg file on IE10, then save it as a .png to check how it looks, it has the banner image but with a bunch of white space above and below (more of a square). Where did I miss something? Thank you!
wait. . . . I do not have access to TRACE my image is just black writing is all I want no color I am STUCK All options in TRACE are not accessible all is gray I cannot even select COLOR I am STUCK
@@GabrielSoares-zj5ok Said with my BIG Beautiful Italian Accent Hey you. . Face...Wasssamatter you Face ehh...? It'sa me. .. *GINO* Heyyyy Grazie mille I'll give it s shot!
Will it always export as an AI SVG? If you convert to SVG and send to someone who doesn't have AI, will they be able to use it? I have AI installed on my machine Win 11 if that matters.
Great tutorial!! Only issue I had was when I attempted to open the SVG in my silhouette studio software it opened on the screen in pieces like shards of glass. Any idea of how to fix that or what I may have done wrong?...TIA
I had the same problem. I fixed it by opening the SVG file again in illustrator. Then I ungrouped everything... then saved it again as a new SVG file... Now it works perfectly in Silhouette studio 😃
Thank you for the lesson. But I didn't quite understand how to properly save it in SVG. I just need to click "Save As" and select SVG 1.1, right? And any other person, having opened my SVG file, will be able to use it for its intended purpose, using all the capabilities of the file?
I would probably save it as an AI file in case I wish to do further work on it but "export" it as SVG (as I do in the video) when I need just an SVG file.
Paul , please I did what you mention I did the window-> Image trace --> Trace, the I went to Object --> Image trace --> expand,, and I only get 1 layer please could you tell me what is wrong ? Never mind I saw that you click on a bottom to expand the listing

Why the hell not!?! No just kidding. I once couldn't afford the Creative Cloud (or Creative Suite at the time). Search for Free or inexpensive alternatives to Adobe Illustrator. Perhaps check out this article here: www.techradar.com/news/the-best-free-adobe-illustrator-alternatives

Hello! I really think this tutorial could be the answer to my problem, but as i started following the same steps you did, my "image trace" is grayed out. I cant do anything with it like you're able to in the video. Any tips?
when i converting the png to svg by pressing image trace in windows and expand in objects...not able to see the white text in file ..it just vanish out...what should i do..please support...
Much depends on the resolution of the original image, the number of colors, and how much contrast there is between the text and the background. Try increasing the number of colors but frankly not all images can be converted in this way.
Hi! I have a question! I am trying to make a gift for someone who owns a business. I am trying to copy their logo off of their website and turn it into an editable svg so that I can have my GlowForge engrave the text into wood and then cut the curved shaped gram out. As well as the flowers burins it because I am going to try and outline the flowers in or see to cut an outline of the flowers and greenery out (of wood ) and then layer her logo. To make her logo come to life. Where would I go in order to figure out how?!?
This solution works really well if you are starting with a large enough resolution image. See if you can get as high a resulution image as possible before you attempt.
I have followed the same steps, but after image tracing I am getting white lines where anchor points were there. After exporting in to SVG also I am still getting white lines. Could you please help me on that?
@@GINZO4849 well on most people's computers, SVG will open in a browser window. They can optionally open it in image editing tools like Illustrator or Photoshop.
You can either select the layers you wish to include and click on *File / Export Selection* or if you wish to export the entire file just click on *File / Export* and then choose SVG as your output type.
