Hello All!

I have one of those Human Brain Coloringbook for years with the intend purpose of eventually scanning the images into Illustrator and using the software to color the images. I pulled one image from Amazon as an example but could only get a distorted version of the image using the trace tool.

Are my only real options to physically trace the images on a different layer.

Which AI version are you using?
In CS2 there's Live Trace which can deliver some good results depending on the quality of the image you are working on.
