What to expect

A photo has millions of subtly different colors, so its vector version is a stylized interpretation: color areas become flat shapes, like a screen print. Fewer colors give a bold poster look; more colors and more detail stay closer to the original but produce larger files.

Portraits and landscapes with clear contrast work best. For a one-color stencil, try the Black & white preset instead.
