How do I convert color image to color vector?

Hi,
Im fairly new/not very well versed in Illustrator, I was wondering if you guys could help me with instructions or tips how to convert old alphabet art to color and actualy converting color images like drawings to vector . Ive tried image trace but it turns the image black and white and with really rough strokes.
Thank you!

Is this art in the Public Domain? Or, do you have the copyright owner's permission to use it in your work? If the answer to both of these questions is no, then you should not be using it.
That being said, I got good results with image trace (using the High Fidelity Photo preset) even on the low-res image you attached here. You just have to adjust the preferences after you do the trace.

  • How do i convert an image object to a byte array ?

    Hi
    how do i convert an image object into a byte array
    early reply apperciated

    Oh sorry my method and the other method need to have the pixels from the Image passed to them which you get my using pixelgrabber:
    //create width and height variables from image
              int w = img.getWidth(this);
              int h = img.getHeight(this);
              //retrive picture from image
              int[] pix = new int[w * h];
              PixelGrabber pg = new PixelGrabber(img, 0, 0, w, h, pix, 0, w);
              try{ pg.grabPixels();
              } catch (InterruptedException ioe) {
                   System.err.println("Interrupted");
              if ((pg.getStatus() & ImageObserver.ABORT) != 0) {
              System.err.println("image fetch aborted or errored");
              }

  • How do I convert raw images with side car to Dng and

    How do I convert raw images with side car to Dng and preserve the sidecar info in the DNG?
    I have tons of raws + xmp sidecars that i want to convert to dng, because the raws are from different camera brands and i want to get everything simplified. so that i do not have to worry if I will be able to access the raws in the future, if I decide I want to rework some of the files.
    T.I.A.

    If the images are already in your catalog you can select them then choose Convert Photos to DNG from the Library menu. You'll be given the option of deleting the original raw files. Either way, Lr will only display the newly created DNG files.
    The alternative, which is better suited to images not already in the catalog is to use the Adobe DNG Converter

  • How do I convert coloring book page to live paint group?

    Have coloring book and clip art image. How do I color them?

    Here are the steps you can use.
    Step 1: Create a new Illustrator document and insert the scan / photo of the image.
    File > New
    File > Place, navigate to the image, select it, click Place
    Click and drag on the page to insert the image.
    Step 2: Turn the pixel based image into Illustrator vector art
    With the Selection tool, click on the Image to the select it.
    Display the Image Trace panel (Window > Image Trace).
    From the Preset menu choose an option that closest resembles your image trace requirement, and select Preview and click Trace.
    Check the results, and make adjustments to the settings as required.
    Once you're happy with the result, in the Control panel, click Expand. Note that once you expand the Image Trace you will no longer be able to adjust the trace settings, and you've created Illustrator vector art.
    Step 3: Change the artwork to a Live Paint group and start colouring.
    Select the vector art, and choose Object > Live Paint > Make.
    You can now use the Live Paint Bucket and Live Paint Selection Tool to colour your artwork.

  • How do I convert specific images on my clipboard to text once pasting the image onto my .pdf document?

    Hey Adobe experts, I could really use your help.
    I have a couple screen shots from school lectures that I pasted onto OneNote. These screenshots have substantial amount of text I could use. I have created a big .pDF document where I have been saving my notes and text. Now - how do I convert the SPECIFIC images I paste onto the document into text? I'm using the word "Specific" here because I know I can run OCR on a blank page without any text. But how do I run OCR on an image
    It automatically happened a couple times when I tried saving the document immediately after I pasted the image - when I was under "edit PDF" I was able to edit and change fonts of the text. But how do I do this at will? Is there a special button somewhere?
    P.S. I already tried OCR - but this is only limited to pages without already "renderable text".
    I'm using Adobe Acrobat Pro DC; Windows 8.1 machine

    Hi SinNombre,
    If you are referring to running OCR on a page with image and renderable text, it is not supported. However, you could use the following workaround for the same:
    1. Print the PDF document to Microsoft XPS Document Writer or go to File->Export to...->Image-> (Any format example TIFF or PNG)
    2. Convert the output created to PDF. This PDF will contain all text and images as images.
    3. Run OCR on this PDF.
    This should resolve your problem

  • How to batch convert RGB images to CMYK

    Hello,
    Can anyone explain in a step-by-step way how to batch-convert many RGB images to CMYK?
    Thanks in advance

    If you do want to use Photoshop for the bact conversion there are a few ways, including Batch and Image Procesor under the File>Automate or File>Scripts of PS.
    However, my preference is to use Russell Brown's script: Image Processsor Pro, via Bridge:
    http://www.russellbrown.com/scripts.html
    As similar one is Picture Processor:
    http://www.scriptsrus.talktalk.net/
    Both allow you to do multiple conversions simultaneously, to different sizes and file types, and running actions before or after the conversions.

  • How can you convert an image to ydbr format?

    Hello all. I can not work out how to simply input an image and convert it to ycbr and save it as a new image.
    Can anyone help please?
    Kind Regards

    OK I have also found this code:
    public static void rgb2ycbcr(int r, int g, int b, int[] ycbcr) {
              int y = (int)( 0.299 * r + 0.587 * g + 0.114 * b);
              int cb = (int)(-0.16874 * r - 0.33126 * g + 0.50000 * b);
              int cr = (int)( 0.50000 * r - 0.41869 * g - 0.08131 * b);
              ycbcr[0] = y;
              ycbcr[1] = cb;
              ycbcr[2] = cr;
    However I have no idea of how to use it. The source did not specify what all the parameters are. How can I use this in my code from a bufferedimage to displaying the new image?
    Thanks again.
    Looking forward to your answers (3 more Dukes added)

  • How to batch convert tiff images to jpeg in Pages document

    I have a large (about 1Gig) Pages 5 Package document with hundreds of images, mostly in tiff format. Since the software became nearly unresponsive, I need to convert image files in jpeg (though I wonder why unresponsiveness in the Package mode). Reducing file size is not an option since it decreases resolution.
    Is there a script, perhaps, that would convert all images in a Pages document to jpeg?

    What version of Pages?
    Not to my knowledge.
    You may be able to create an AppleScript, a very long shot, but it will not use Pages to do the conversion and will take longer to do than simply correcting all the images and reimporting them.
    Preview.app can convert from one format to another and there are Automator workflows that will convert image formats. You will lose some detail because jpegs are a lossey format whilst tiff is not. Have you looked at reserving the images as compressed tiff files?
    How did you get into this position? You must have known the file would be huge with so many large images in it. Pages 5 is particularly bad, increasing file size exponentially.

  • How can I convert an image created in Photoshop into a format that Java's ImageIO library will take?

    Hi all,
    I've been trying to write an image resize tool to use the Lancoz resample algorithm to resize images to a high standard in Java.  The library with the algorithm/filter in it is mortennobel's image scaling library and it takes a buffered image as an input and returns the resized image as desired.  However the trouble I’m having is that the ImageIO library in Java, a standard library, which converts images given to its read method to buffered images doesn't accept certain images created in Photoshop and so it throws an exception.  My library needs to be fully automated to process possible thousands of images at a time and so manually converting them by resaving them as JPEG's is really feasibly.  Is there some way I can convert these images from Adobes Exif format to standard JFIF format?  I've tried simple inserting the APP0 marker from a JFIF image in-between the SOI and APP1 marker but the ImageIO library still failed.
    The above image is a screenshot of the binary in hex of one of the images that cause an Invalid Format exception when passed to ImageIO.
    Any help you could offer me with this would be much appreciated.
    Kind regards and thank you,
    Alexei Blue

    NB: I previously posted this post in Developers but was told to post it in a Photoshop forum so apologies if this is the incorrect formum

    The image scaling library does have a BiCubicFilter in it so I'll experiment around with them and see what happens.  As for the imageIO library I think it accepts Exif image types, but still for some reason it just doesn't like Adobe Photoshop types.  Maybe its the colour map it doesn't like I just can't seem to work out what's wrong which is slightly frustrating but looking round to see if I can find an answer
