MagicTracer [raster to vector converter] 2.0

MagicTracer is a raster to vector conversion software for the Windows platform. MagicTracer can turn raster (bitmap) images into vector linework. With both raster and vector tools, it is a versatile utility for image processing and vector cleanup. The vector convert tool guides you through the threshold and edge detection processes so better results can be easily obtained. The overlay modes allows you to see the underlying image when working on vector cleanup. Overlay mode also works the other way, allowing you to see the vector lines while processing the original raster image. An unique feature of MagicTracer is raster and vector shapes and color selection/fill tools. These tools allow shapes to be added to project files as pixels or vectors. Vector results can be exported to any CAD (i.e. AutoCAD) or vector editing program (i.e. Illustrator) through DXF. MagicTracer also allows exporting vectors to DC2, XYZ, and WMF. Import and export formats for raster images include all common formats as well as some less common ones.
