Photo to a Line Drawing?

Matt Mundorf said:

I have been playing around but I haven't found a way to turn a color photo into a Black & White outline drawing in Corel PhotoPaint X5.

Can someone give me some advice how to do this?

 

Thanks,

Hell Matt,

This isnt so hard to do using Corel PHOTO-PAINT.

See attached image, a before and after.

1. Open a photo, in this case a motorbike.
2. Go to Image > Convert to Black & White 1 bit.
3. In the Dialog that opens, choose "LineArt".
4. Use the "Threshold" slider in the dialog to drag it to either less or more threshold.
5. Click ok.
6. Finished.

You can now take this image into CorelDRAW if you like and convert bitmap to vector using CorelDRAW Trace. Or simply use the image in PhotoPaint.
