Why do some of the designs that I digitized with autopunch turn out better than others ?
Notice when you choose the image that there are many different formats. Autopunch gives the best result when using vector type images, such as .wmf. The software must be able to recognize a color (block) of information. A . bmp can be made of millions of colors making it impractical for use. Clipart falls into two basic categories, Vector Art and Bitmapped Art. The software is capable of vectorizing the .bmp image, but it may loose detail, depending on the image. It is essential to understand about the type of artwork or image used with AutoPunch. Vector Art is a clean graphic blocks of color by simple definition. Some common formats – .wmf and .emf are two formats that the Auto Punch software can read Bitmapped Art is the type of format that is typically saved when scanning. The computer sees millions of colors to create the realistic type of image. Even a 3-color design that we see as simple has billions of pixels. Common formats recognized by the software: .bmp, .jpg, .tif, .pcx, .p
