Convert Jpeg to Line drawing

Asked by Lucy Gillies

I have a black and white JPEG. How do I convert it to a line drawing?
I eventually want to use the image on a vinyl cutter.
Thank you

Hi,
You should trace the bitmap, using Path > Trace bitmap.
If your image is pure black and white (no grays), then the first choice (brightness cutoff) should be perfect. There's a tutorial here : http://inkscape.org/doc/tracing/tutorial-tracing.html if you need it.
regards
