    Hi,

    I have a bunch of images created in another program that I would love to ‘bulk-vectorize’. Can I do this in Illustrator, without having to trace all the images.

    If so, how?

    Thanks in advance,

    ALEX

    Hi Alex,
    if you have access to Adobe Illustrator CS2, you can simply open up Adobe Bridge. Browse to your files and you’ll be able to “batch LiveTrace” all of them. Unfortunately, it will only let you process 10 files (I think) at a time. There is supposedly a hack online that will let you change this limit.

    Have fun!

    ps. If ever you don’t have access to Illustrator CS2, you can always dust off your old copy of Adobe Streamline 🙂
