    it depends on the type of drwaing as to the best settings, but the pre-set ones are usually close enough, if you go onto cadlinks website there is a nice little vectoring demo (I think?) or sometimes it used to be on the program disc.

    Depends what you are vectorising – ie. how ropey the bitmap is.

    For a good one – Tolerance 9 – Corners 7…everything else OFF

    For iffy ones…Drop the tolerance…and start to use the speckle filter.

    It’s more ‘feel’ than science.

    Paul the tracing tutorial is right down the bottom, it is more streamlined and automated in SL 8 but the basics are what you need to know to get the best out of a trace
