This directory contains code for converting bitmap images to vector images.
The subdirectories contain code for the three tracers used in Inkscape: potrace
(external dependency), autotrace, and libdepixelize (currently in src/3rdparty).
To do:
* Think about conceptually changing how the tracing works: Ideally, it should
be three steps clearly separated:
1/ Preprocessing (color reduction, blurring, background removing, image
inversion...)
2/ Tracing the preprocessed image, using some tracing engine
3/ Post-processing (suppressing speckles, optimizing paths...)
The main problem is that the tracing engine sometimes *also* does 1 and 3, so
there is some discussion to have whether this can be done.
