Project Description

Potrace is a utility for tracing a bitmap (that is, transforming a bitmap into a smooth, scalable image). The input is a portable bitmap (PBM), and the default output is an encapsulated PostScript file (EPS). A typical use is to create EPS files from scanned data, such as company or university logos, handwritten notes, etc. The resulting image is not "jaggy" like a bitmap, but smooth. It can then be rendered at any resolution.

A DXF backend was added. The output is in the drawing interchange format used by computer aided design software. The Gimppath backend was changed to be compatible with current versions of GIMP. The EPS, PDF, and SVG backends now use high-resolution bounding boxes. The default scaling
of the EPS, PDF, and SVG backends is now fixed at 72dpi. A new option --flat was added to the SVG backend. A new option --tight was added to remove whitespace around the input image before calculating its
scaling and placement.
