Hand-drawn art has a character that's hard to fake digitally. Converting your sketch into a vector keeps that character while making it scalable, editable and ready for print, engraving or cutting.
Capture the drawing well
- Ink over pencil lines with a dark pen or marker.
- Photograph in even daylight, straight above the page, to avoid shadows — or use a scanner.
- Crop tightly to the drawing.
Trace with Line art
Open the image to vector converter and choose Line art. This converts your drawing to pure black and white.
- Paper texture showing as dots? Raise Remove specks.
- Lines breaking apart? Your photo is too light — increase contrast in your phone's photo editor and re-upload.
- Want to keep a slightly hand-made wobble? Use Smooth curves with a lower Segment length.
