Good to know: Works locally in your browser with JPG, PNG and WebP. No images are sent to the server. Maximum 10 MB per file, 8 megapixels and 4096 pixels per side. Up to two images only for comparison; other tools use one. Outputs have the same pixel size unless the tool explicitly changes it. Static images only; animation and original metadata are not preserved. Keep your original files.
How to use it (step by step)
- 1Choose a photo or drawing.
- 2Set the brightness cutoff between black and white.
- 3Download the raster PNG. This does not make vector cutting paths.
Words to know
- Resolution / pixels
- A picture is made of tiny dots called pixels. 1080×1920 means 1,080 dots wide and 1,920 tall.
- Unit conversion
- Changing a value from one measurement to another, like kilometers to miles. The amount stays the same; only the unit changes.
- EXIF / metadata
- Hidden information stored inside a photo: camera, date and sometimes the exact place it was taken.
- JPG, PNG, WebP
- Picture file types. JPG is best for photos, PNG for graphics and see-through backgrounds, WebP is newer and smaller.
- Data storage units
- Sizes of digital files: 1 KB ≈ a short text, 1 MB ≈ a photo, 1 GB ≈ a movie. 1 GB = 1,000 MB (or 1,024 in computer counting).
