Vectorize
Jun 27th, 2008, 2:11pm
 
¿Does anybody know how can I get the bezier curve corresponding to a pixel path in a bitmap? I suppose I need something similar to vectorizing tools in Illustrator. ¿Is there any library for doing this?

Thanks!

Vectorizing a bitmap image, even duotone ones, is far from being a trivial problem. There aren't much projects on this, I don't know if there is a Java library for this task.

I know some open sources projects: AutoTrace (the site has lot of links), and Potrace, which is, AFAIK, the trace engine used in Inkscape.
