In this article, we will show you how to change a bitmap image into an SVG graphic using Inkscape. This can be done easily using the “trace bitmap” function in Inkscape.

It is often necessary to convert bitmap images into vector graphics so that they can be properly edited in a vector editing program such as Inkscape.
