Portability has been improved to encompass C++11. It is now possible to use negative dy in bitmapĭata. The image size is now truncated when the bitmap data ends Thanks to Agostino Sarubbo, Daniel Macks, and Michael Voříšekįor reporting bugs and suggesting improvements.Ī number of bugs triggered by malformed BMP files have been fixed, A new configuration option -enable-local-getopt wasĪdded. A bug triggered by very large bitmaps hasīeen fixed. Some potential buffer overflows and arithmetic overflows were fixed, Henri Salo and Dave Yeo for reporting bugs and suggesting TheĬonfiguration option -enable-local-getopt was renamed as This release consists of bugfixes and minor portability improvements.Ī potential arithmetic overflow was fixed. Trouble using Potrace? Here are the answers to some frequently asked questions.įor changes prior to version 1.14, see the file NEWS.įor a more detailed list of changes, see the ChangeLog. Used to pre-process the input for better tracing behavior on Mkbitmap is a program distributed with Potrace which can be Of pixel-based images), Gimppath, and XFig. SVG, PDF, EPS, PostScript, DXF, GeoJSON, PGM (for easy antialiasing Potrace can currently produce the following output formats: It can then be rendered at any resolution. The resulting image is not 'jaggy' like aīitmap, but smooth. A typical use is to create SVG or PDFįiles from scanned data, such as company or university logos, The input is aīitmap (PBM, PGM, PPM, or BMP format), and the output is one of Transforming a bitmap into a smooth, scalable image. Potrace(TM) is a tool for tracing a bitmap, which means, Transforming bitmaps into vector graphics
