Hi Experts,

after upgrading to 27.4.1, image trace stopped working, and keep gives this error:

HagaiNachmani_0-1682596936138.png

then image becomes this:

HagaiNachmani_1-1682596969127.png

Tried the fix already suggested:

For Windows
- Close all Adobe applications.
- Go to Location C:\Users\%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Adobe
- Rename Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Illustrator 27 Settings folders to Adobe Illustrator.old and Adobe Illustrator - 27 Settings.old
- Relaunch Illustrator from Creative Cloud

it didn't work.

tried Image Trace on many graphic formats, from existing and new documents, nothing works.

system configuration didn't change, and has 8 cores, 32gig ram, and plenty of storage space.

how can this be fixed, we are using this image trace feature on a daily basis...

 

tnx,

Hagai

Search the forum, this has been reported several times, I don't have the issue so I didn't read what the recommended fixes might be...

I have searched and tried (as i mentioned in my post) the recommanded fixes, but none worked.

does anyone have a proven solution for this? 

especially on 27.4.1 version? 

tnx,

This seems to be a common workaround until Adobe care to fix it: Rasterizing before tracing.

Your mileage may vary.

There is an update for 27.5 available, maybe that helps.

What are you trying to trace? Put up a screenshot, and give dimensions and resolution.

any thing, any size.

windows.png

 it could be any other format or file, something just doesn't seem to work (and it used to).

 

rebooted machine, increased memory, still the same. 

 

tnx,

Hagai

An Adobe employee says:

Have you tried resetting preferences in Adobe Illustrator or performing a clean installation of the software?

I have "Delete the preferences folder" (as mentioned above), but didn't fully uninstalled the Illustrator software (yet), didn't want to come to that, but if that would be the last result, i will do so.

Yeah, it's missing from the tool bar drop down, but it's available when you choose Image Trace from Window menu...

hi Gerhard,

just use the Adobe "Creative Cloud Desktop" app, and choose to install "previous installation options", and de-select automatic updates.
than you will be able to role back to your desired version.

 

that's what i did, and it worked for me,

thanks,

Hagai
