Adobe Streamline

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Adobe Streamline is a discontinued line tracing program by Adobe Systems. It was likely discontinued because similar features were added into Adobe Illustrator 9, CS, CS2, and CS3. A test of the native Illustrator 9 auto-trace function by Creative Pro in 2002 concluded: "The premier tracing utility is Streamline, which is infinitely controllable and very accurate." [1] Adobe's Creative Suite versions of Illustrator aren't compatible with Windows 98 systems so Streamline thus remains vital for those using Illustrator 9.

Illustrator CS2 introduced a new tracing tool entitled Live Trace, which provides fast tracing, fine control, as well as a "live link" to the bitmap being traced. It's been extremely well received by Macworld, among others. [2] [3].
