New Here ,
Sep 08, 2024 Sep 08, 2024

Hello, 

 

i am trying to make a thicker line of a png in illustrator. So i imported my png and did a image trace and then expanded it. Then i tried to use path offset to thicker the lines of my png, because i want to make a DXF file of it to print it on my 3d printer. The path offset doesn't open, so i am doing something wrong i think.

This is what I get after expanding when I use the default settings and ignore color.

Offset Path is available.

While tracing did you check ignore color in the advanced options?
