Illustrator :: Filling A Stroke With White

Mar 19, 2014

I want to produce a white image of a stag without a background. I traced the image and have it rendered with a path using the stroke tool. You can see the stroke selected below.

My goal is to remove the green circle in the background and save the white stag only. Right now the stroke is not filled -- the white color is the transparent background. This is what the image looks like in Illustrator without the background and no color applied to the stroke.
 
Of course if I deselect the stroke, the object disappears, and when I save it, there's nothing visible. My goal is to print a white stag on a green T-shirt. Do I need to convert the stroke object to something else, then apply a fill? I don't know how to proceed.

Illustrator :: Put White Stroke On EVERYTHING In Design?

Feb 27, 2014

I am fairly new to Illustrator, although since I'm pretty good at Photoshop (I have used it exclusively for graphic design for 10 years) I have been picking up Illustrator fairly quickly. I created a design but would like to put a white stroke on everything so that it will look good on both dark and light colored shirts, but I can't figure out how to do this. It's SO simple in Photoshop, but I need the vector capabilities of Illustrator more and more these days so I really need to learn how in Illustrator.
 
All of my objects are in separate layers so I have tried to combine them and merge them to create a new stroke around them but all this does is group them and still create new strokes on each individual object. How do I literally MERGE them as they are (front object stays in front, back object stays in back, and they retain their coloring) so that I can put a white stroke around them?

Illustrator :: Inking A Sketch With Calligraphic Brush That Has Black Stroke And White Fill

Feb 16, 2014

I am using CS5.5, and I was watching a video of someone using CS6  inking a sketch with a calligraphic brush that has black stroke and white fill. I am trying to do the same thing, but every time I select the fill color and start using the brush it goes back to "none" as the fill option. Is this a CS6 exclusive feature?

Illustrator :: Dashed Stroke Not Working On Image Traced Image?

Mar 13, 2013

So I'm able to use the dashed stroke normally if I create my own lines or shapes, but I'm using an image that I have image traced, expanded, and ungrouped, and I'm able to change the weight of the stroke and the brush but not apply a dashed stroke or a different brush profile, but I'm more concerned with the stroke. I haven't forgotten the gap.. What's up? Does it just not work on image traced stuff?

Illustrator :: Stroke On Placed Image?

Jul 22, 2013

In all my research of the new CC features in Illustrator I came across a video that was explaining you can now add a stroke on a placed image.   My memory thinks it was a Deke McClellan video but i'm getting too old to rely on my memory being correct and I can't seem to find the video again.
 
I tried adding a stroke but nothing happeneds.. I still have to mask first then add a stroke.

Illustrator :: How To Stroke The Image To Make Cut Lines

Mar 12, 2014

I have been a Photoshop hobbyist. Now I own a  printing business. This has forced me into the  world of Illustrator for our printing and cutting machines. Although I  am very comfortable with PS, Illustrator. One of the  key things is making "Cut lines" in Illustrator to send to the cutting  program. Now here is my dillema, all of my images I have made are in  Photoshop. To make these cut lines I have to stroke the image. When I  bring a picture into Illustrator I can not get it to stroke that  picture. It just strokes the box around it, or unless I draw a circle  or shape around it and stroke that shape. Please refer to the picture I  have attached. The first one is a decal that we initially made. The  second is the image that I want to stroke for cut lines do I can just  have that as a decal without the white circle.

Illustrator :: Maintaining Stroke Weight When Changing Path To Brush Stroke?

Sep 12, 2013

Is there a way or an option I am missing to convert my regular paths to a path stroked with a brush profile,while maintining the proper stroke width?
 
For instance, I have a regular line with a stroke of 5 and then add a brush profile, which then converts the original stroke to whatever the brush was made at.

Illustrator :: How To Stroke Behind Other Stroke But In Front Of Fill

Jan 4, 2013

I have a shape with a black stroke and green fill.  I have a white line segment over it.  How do I get it so that the end of the line segment doesn't show over the black stroke of the object?  If I try to put the line segment behind the object, then the object fill hides it completely.
 
I'm new to illustrator and I've tried to search for an answer but I don't know the best way to accomplish what I want to do.  Seems like some combination of transparency or knockout groups and I've read a bit about this and can't figure out what I need to do.

Illustrator :: White Line Around Image

Sep 19, 2012

I have a CMYK file, outlined product, that looks perfect in Photoshop.  When I place the image into Illustrator, it shows up with a thin white line around parts of the product (fyi - it shows up on a print as well). I have tried to place an RGB file and it does not have the white line around the product.    I assume it has something to do with it being CMYK.

Illustrator :: Remove (White) Background From Image?

Oct 29, 2009

I managed to create the Illustrator image I want & now need to take this image & use it in another application. However, regardless of which way I attempt to export - jpg, tif or png, I'm still getting the (white artboard) background, which I do not want.  I attempted to create another box & blend the background to the background of the other application that I am using, but it's still apparent.
 
Also, with some conversion, my image became distorted or changed the image colors a little bit.
 
What's the process to remove unwanted backgrounds from Illustrator images?  Here's some samples.

Illustrator Scripting :: Apply Current Fill Color To Stroke Then Adjust That Stroke Color's Build?

Apr 9, 2013

I'm trying to figure out a way to automate a simple, yet repetative process I do countless times a day. Ideally, I'd like to tie it to a keystroke to speed up my workflow.
 
I work on line art and colorways for footwear, so the way I'm coloring these shapes and strokes break apart the different materials and pieces of the shoe.
 
While coloring line art, I work with Pantone spot colors as fills for closed path objects. I then have to manually apply that same color to the stroke, set the stroke to 0.5px weight, convert that spot stroke color to CMYK, and add 15% to the K value.
 
I found some code in an older post for applying the actively selected object's fill color to the stroke, but I'm having but I'm having trouble with the next step of figuring out how to take that spot stroke color and convert it to a CMYK build that I can then add 15% black to. Is this something that's even possible? I've spent about an hour playing with the script and have only had luck matching the fill color or turning the stroke white.

Illustrator :: Preserving White Areas But Not Backgrounds In Image Trace

Feb 26, 2014

I've got a little graphic that I'm working on at the moment. I am trying to trace it using the Image Trace feature in illustrator.
 
Everything's hunky dory apart from the fact that the original graphic has a lot of white features on it that I want to preserve. These white bits are not bordered so, in the main page of illustrator, they merge with the white background. When I go to use Image Trace, I can either select "Ignore white" which leaves out all of this white detailing, or I can deselect it which means that the trace then includes the white background and the whole image is set into an annoying box.
 
how I can remedy this? I know in Photoshop, there's that checked background that shows when your work surface is empty. Is there a way of getting this same thing in Illustrator?

Photoshop :: Create A Black Stroke Around Image

Feb 17, 2009

I have the trial version for my laptop (windows), and we use a Mac at school. Anyway, I have an assignment to do and it involves creating a 1 pt. black stroke around an image. I found where it says "stroke" but it is either grayed out at top under 'edit', or down on the right 'add a layer style' I hit stroke and nothing changed on my photo. I have looked at the Help menu and tried what they said and still the image won't change. Please help! This assignment is due tonight (I wasn't able to get Photoshop to unzip and open on my computer all weekend which is why it took this long).

Illustrator :: AI CC - Cannot Set Stroke Of Path To Anything Less Than 1 Pt

Aug 23, 2013

I can't set the stroke of a path to anything less than 1 pt.
 
Though a dragged path  (by an endpoint) snaps to a point on another path, when I lift my finger, the dragged point and path jump a small distance away.
 
Aligning two separate paths to their common (e.g. top left) endpoints also leaves the two endpoints slightly displaced from each other.
