Autotrace is a program for converting bitmap to vector graphics.

The aim of the AutoTrace project is the development of a freely available application with a functionality similar to CorelTrace or Adobe Streamline.

I hope that it will become better than all commercially available programs. In some aspects it is already better.

AutoTrace is free software. AutoTrace is distributed under the term of GNU GPL.

Installation.

AutoTrace currently comes in source code and some binaries - you have to compile the package for other platforms yourself. After downloading the archive, unpack the distribution and use make to compile it.

Features.

Here is a short description of currently supported formats:

Inputformats BMP, TGA, PNM, PPM, PGM, PBM and those supported by ImageMagick.
Exportformat Postscript, svg, xfig, swf, pstoedit, emf, dxf, cgm, mif, p2e and sk
