Potrace is a tool for tracing a bitmap, which means, transforming a
bitmap into a smooth, scalable image. The input is a bitmap (PBM,
PGM, PPM, or BMP), and the default output is one of several vector
file formats. A typical use is to create EPS files from scanned data,
such as company or university logos, handwritten notes, etc. The
resulting image is not jaggy like a bitmap, but smooth. It can then
be rendered at any resolution.
This is an update of potrace to the latest upstream release. The
packages libpotrace0 and libpotrace-devel are new with this release.
