Now a vectorized image of your original bitmap will be seen on top of the bitmap. Select 'Update' for a preview until settings are fine. for settings (below shown for 2 colors = 'Scans' ):
Select the image with the select tool ( ↖).
We can import the bitmaps we had already put so much work in to Inkscape and convert them with a few mouse clicks to nice vector graphics.Ĭhoose 'File - Import' to import a bitmap file. it will get aliasing artifacts on scaling (see below).īut Inkscape can do even more. The image will then remain a bitmap file, i.e. We could import an image as a bitmap object to Inkscape and save it as an SVG file. There used to be a plugin to do so but this project apparently is discontinued. GIMP v2.8 does not natively export bitmaps to SVG files.
