Sorry, I don’t understand the necessity for the tracing step. What is the difference to just opening and directly exporting to SVG. Will this tracing procedure help maintain a transparent background from my png?
I'm not an Illustrator expert, but this is the process I've always followed. Without the trace, I believe you are just saving the bitmap SVG. You won't be able to recolor or properly edit the vector graphics without tracing and isolating all the parts.
@@nauticfilms If a background is formed for some reason, the trace process will create a layer that can be discarded (another advantage of the trace process).
Hi, when I click image trace > expand, my image develops a grey border and the edges become warped despite being perfectly sharp and without grey before. Can you help?
I might have to update this video once again. Illustrator looks a little different for me today. Sorry I can't be more help. I wanted to share how I did this last year but I'm far from an Illustrator expert.
Short and sweet. Thanks!

Hey! My illustrator does not provide the "logo" preset. What do I do?
Maybe try this older version of the video and see if this works for you: ruclips.net/video/Ih0lhVLseu4/видео.htmlsi=n8xixaVDPjlBvL4z

@@CaptivateTeacher Thank you. Do you know how to maintain a transparent background from the PNG?

My Image trace is still greyed out?
Which version of Adobe Illustrator are you using?
