Creating Action for Image Trace with Color Settings

[nathanc89952229]

I am able to use the drop down menu next to the Image Trace button after selecting a color bitmap image. The results are great. However, if I record this into an Action, it shows no data in the action palette. When used, the color shapes are only small, black blobs. I have 519 of these to do and would really love to have an action I can batch.

CC Illustrator 2020.

OSX 10.14.6

You have to create a preset for the autotrace.

Then you can batch this out of Adobe Bridge.

Thanks. I'll probably need to do that. But, it mystifies me why I can't just select one of Illustrator's presets. Probably unanswerable. However, batching out of Bridge was a great suggestion.
