It still exports with a white background.
I happened to change the color of the bitmap to transparent, then the background gets, well... transparent, but there's also a degradation of quality....
I get an error message when trying to do that:
"Xara could not export an image map because no objects were suitable. Try applying Web Adresses to objects or making shapes closed"
The image...
Gary, I missed your post.
Yes, it was the view quality which made the picture look unsharp or "pixely".
I think a regular bitmap trace was enough this time actually but I'll see if your way can...
Thank you for your ideas, I appreciate it!
I tried tracing it - and it turned out really well. To shape it by hand was very difficult and also very time consuming.
Now I have another question...
I've scanned my written signature and would now like to treat the picture a little. The first problem is that the paper I used is greyish in the scan. Can I replace the greyish background for a white...
I found a small app (IrfanView) that let me set the color depth and it pretty much ruled out alot of marks. The rest of the I edited out - not using Xara this time but Serif PhotoPlus 6 which is a...
Thanks for all the tips! I'm looking into it now.
Very nice video tutorial. Great!
I have some music sheets I want to scan and then edit a little to get rid of some marks and some other problems. Is this a task for Xara or should I use a pixel editor á la Photoshop (I've been using...
Yeah, the PNG pictures I've taken with SnagIt are really good. I'll stick to that.
Thanks,

Which file format would be the best touse if I intend to get it into print? I've been saving a few pictures as .png - is that good?
Thank you, Joe!
That application works great. Wonderful.
I'm putting together a tech book on a particular music software and general music production technique. When I'm trying to capture on screen graphics by hitting 'Print Screen' and then pasting and...
Thanks for all your comments.
I will get back to work to see what and how I will do from here.
I do realize there is no other option than using absolute positioning.
Do you leave it at absolute positioning or do go into the html code in order to fix it?
I'm simply wondering since I've...
So it would be possible to do an entire website in only Xara Xtreme 4? No need for additional coding? I knew a little html but I'm quite rusty now but also, the code Xara generates was a bit messy I...
I was very delighted to see that Xara now has direct export to html. While I'm sitting here trying it out I find that the positioning Xara makes is always absolute. How do you deal with that?
What...
I've got a monochrome picture which has an illustration of a camera on it that I would like to use for a CD label. The camera is black and the picture has a white background - how do I turn the white...
Thanks! I got it.
I'm not sure if it has an outline. Is there an easy way to find out?
I'm trying to export an image to GIF and I need the GIF to be exactly 120x120 pixels. I find this to be very difficult. Where ever I size the image I end up with some odd size as 120x117 or similar....
I want to use a few vector images for printing on t-shirts and some other things. so I went down to my local print shop. What I learned there was that I need to separate the colors of the pictures...
I have this pictures (which happens to be an "X") and I want to make everything in it transparent except for the actual letter.
How can I achieve this in a simple and fast way? Is the bitmpa...
I downloaded the free PhotoPlus 6 but I haven't tried it yet - I might do it later today. PhotoPlus 8 is $9.99 (US).
You wouldn't know whether Photoshop techniques can be applied in Photoplus?
Thank you all for your inpuit and thoughts.
I've started using Paint.NET a little to do a few tasks. I could get started much easier with Paint.NET than I could with The GIMP or Serif PhotoPlus 6...
