Re: How to change jpg to svg in inkscape
If you have worked on the image in PSP, the easiest way is to past it into Inkscape. If you are taking the file directly to Ink, you can either open or import it. Once you have the image in Ink, you need to trace it. From the menu, Path/Trace bitmap. If your image is a true black and white, you can select OK. If it is colors or shades of gray, you will need to play with the settings a little. Once your image is traced, you will have a trace (called a Path) on top of your image. Look through the tutorial section. There are some good tutorials there.
