Illustrator Image Trace Issues

[studioversa]

Hi all,

I'm creating some custom sketch designs for a branding project, and all of a sudden I'm having image tracing issues. I've been sketching using Procreate, using the same brush and exporting as PNGs with the same settings to stay consistent.

For reference, I've attached two photos:
1) My first illustrations that I've made vector using image trace. They came out great!
2) New illustrations using Image Trace. All of a sudden they look like absolute garbage. They come out flimsy and totally innacurate.

What seems to be the problem!? I cannot get the image trace to look like my previous sketches and it's really frustrating.

Any and all help please, thanks!

Hi Mike, 

Image Trace has some problems in this version. You can go back to a previous version like 27.5 or earlier

In the CC app go to Apps > All Apps

Next to Illustrator you will see 3 dots

Click and select Other Versions

You can Uninstall Illustrator and install the previous version or leave the current Illustrator installed and install an additional previous version.

Life saver, thank you! Really unforunate Image Trace has issues with the newest version. Have you heard of Adobe hopping on this issue as of recent? Thanks again.

Good to hear that helped as workaround. I am sure Adobe is aware of issues.
