    Been looking for a video like this for ages. Thanks so much. As I'm very new to AI, the technical level was perfect.

    Solid video. I was having issues with my images printing out on films a bit blurry. With bringing it into AI and tracing it and such I can now expand what was once a small image and make it print as large as I want. Thanks so much!

    i do have a question about that . If I wanted color in the image you have with the fill paint bucket would i be able to choke the paint fill? Ive had issues trying to figure that out since when I got to print for screen printing i want to make sure I have a stroke over or under. I hope you understand what I mean.

      +Yesi C You can still choke the object. Just use a stroke, or use Edit > Path > Offset Path.

    I only have Ai and not Ps. Image trace will sometimes disfigure the image. Is there a way to keep lines and corners crisp, without bridging between Ps into Ai?

    • @mikeydesignssilkscreen473
      @mikeydesignssilkscreen473  4 года назад

      That tends to happen when the art is low resolution. You may just have to redraw it if you can't not res up the dpi.

      Mikey Designs & Silk Screen How do I play with the DPI in Ai?

    • @mikeydesignssilkscreen473
      @mikeydesignssilkscreen473  4 года назад

      @@bridd You can't. The image will have to be res'd up in a pixel based program. There may be a free one online that will do it for it.

    Is it still work if the clip art has color on it ?

    • @mikeydesignssilkscreen473
      @mikeydesignssilkscreen473  6 лет назад +2

      It just depends on the colors in the design, but yes, it does. Turn the art to grey scale, use your levels tool, select the black selection tool, and select the grey or what was color. I'll try my best to post a video on this.

    You only use photoshop on youy designs? How about coreldraw?

    • @mikeydesignssilkscreen473
      @mikeydesignssilkscreen473  5 лет назад

      I use Illustrator and Photoshop. I'm not a fan of Coreldraw. I tried it about 13 years ago, and found the interface not as user friendly. I even used FreeHand by Macromedia quite a bit, so it's not that I was partial to Illustrator. I personally wouldn't recommend CorelDraw to anyone. The industry standard, from my experience, is Adobe based.
