Convert a bitmap into a vector SVG using

mkbitmap

potrace

Quick start

# 1) Produce a silhouette-friendly SVG
bash scripts/trace_to_svg.sh input.png --out out.svg
2) Higher contrast + less noise
bash scripts/trace_to_svg.sh input.png --out out.svg --threshold 0.6 --turdsize 20
3) Feed into create-dxf (example)
- set create-dxf drawing.etch_svg_paths[].d to the SVG path d
 you want, or
- store the traced SVG and reference it in your pipeline.

Notes

This is best for logos, silhouettes, high-contrast shapes.
For photos or complex shading, results depend heavily on thresholding.
Output is usually one or more
```
<path>
```
elements.
