Is turning JPG into Line Art impossible

Asked By Gary V Lindgren 10 points N/A Posted on - 08/10/2013

What I want to do, is use some pictures to create customized glasses, plates, bowls and other stuff like that.

I understood that I must turn my pictures, that are in .jpg format, to Line Art.

After searching online for a couple of hours, I haven't find any program to help me with this.

Can you tell me if turning JPG into Line Art is possible?

And what software would help me to do this.

Hi Gary!

It's not impossible to convert a .JPG file into Line Art, that's why Photoshop exists! All you have to do is follow some simple steps.

First, open the photo you want in Photoshop and create a duplicate layer. Go to Image, Adjustment and Desaturate. Now your picture should be black and white. Go to Filter, Stylize, Fine Edges, and now you should obtain a pencil drawing effect.

Go back to Image, Adjustments and select Brightness/Contrast. Adjust them as you wish and then go to Filer, Sharpen, and select Sharpen More.

Now you have a line art image!
