Hello,

 

I have a problem with image tracing.

 

When I save everything and upload the file, it still showing the lines for each part in the vector photo. See example:

 

What can i do? All I want is to make a raster photo in to hich fidelity vector.

 

Thank you!

What do you need it for?

I don't understand why you first reace it and then open it in Photoshop.

 

When you trace this, what Illustrator does is create shapes. Lotos of shapes, because it can't make gradients. And also it puts them exactly side by side. You can try the overlapping option in the Image trace panel.

Are they "real" lines: when you zoom-in do they get bigger?

They may just be an artifact of imaging such a complex drawing.

Save out to pdf, can you see them in the pdf file?

Okay, see I have had this same problem, and your answer really helped me thank you!!! Doing this got rid of the small white lines. But now I am facing the issue of not being able to "ignore white" in my background because the option to do that is in the abutting method panel.  Any tips?

You can only expand the trace afterwards, select all the white shapes (possibly only one) and delete them.
