Need help with Eraser tool in Illustrator

[Jennifer5CAD]

Hello,

I've just started working with illustrator but having problems with the eraser tool.  I have a scanned sketch uploaded but the eraser won't erase some of my image.  Where am I going wrong?  Thank you

Can you tell us what you are hoping to use Illustrator for here?

If you're just neatening up a scanned image, it's better done in Photoshop.

Illustrator can't directly edit raster images.
