Question 1

Why is the Image Trace option greyed out?

How do I convert a complex, colorful image to a vector?

Use the High Fidelity Photo preset in Image Trace and adjust settings like color threshold, paths, and corners. Don’t forget to expand and simplify if needed.

Question 3

Can I convert my hand drawing to a vector?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Scan your drawing or take a clear photo, place it in Illustrator, and try the Sketched Art preset under Image Trace. Then refine the results by expanding and cleaning up paths.

Question 4

How do I fix a messy or inaccurate Image Trace?

Accepted Answer

After expanding, use Object > Path > Simplify, delete unwanted shapes, or manually adjust anchor points using the Direct Selection Tool. You can also manually retrace sections with the Pen Tool if needed.
