So that the outline had optimally 3 deleted pixels, and at least 7 remaining ones, making it up for at least a 10 pixel wide stroke at the beginning.īy the feather edges the sharp corners will turn to have a 3 pixel rounding with these settings, and the outline thinner with 3 pixels -if that's not good, then lower the threshold a bit, until it makes a selection which is 3 pixels thinner.Īfter these being done to the original image, with the scaling down, it will appear much sharper. Grow it with 3-4 pixels, making it go over the feathered edges, but within the black outline,Īnd then with colors/curves adjust the grays to be black.įor this example the calculation went with 3 pixel feathered edges with the magic wand, then to go over it, came that 3-4 pixels, which will add another 3 pixels to the selected area. If the original outline is wider than 10 pixels, you can try the following:Īfter deleting the selection, there is an option to grow the selection in the selection menu These can be manually deleted from their respective windows. The background you remove will leave not only black but gray shades with alpha channel at the selection's edge, that is better avoided. Unless you are using these in your design, they can add unnecessary weight to the overall file size. Thinking it over, with you want to have white filled parts too, that method should be improved. The threshold at 127 would be optimal for you, and maybe even feathered edges with a 3 pixel radius,Īll being used BEFORE scaling down the result. In our document, the default display unit is using mm, 209 mm width, and 193 mm. an image in Inkscape in ways similar to raster programs such as Photoshop or Gimp. You can set anti-aliasing in the magic wand's tool options. The Photoshop document is smaller than the Inkscape original document size. I show you 17 different ways for croppping an image using Inkscape.
