The color of the outline will correspond to the "scanned" color for that region. Note that the outlines for each region may overlap one another. This is because SVG does not provide a means of specifying an "inset" outline. Instead the outline strokes have a non-zero width and half of this width falls outside of the region being outlined.

 The "Post process trace bitmap" extension moves to distinct Inkscape layers each collection of regions of the same color or gray tone which were traced by Inkscape's "Trace Bitmap" tool.  This extension can optionally remove the color fill applied by that tool, add outlines of the regions, or remove from the drawing the original bitmap image which was traced.
 '''Important note:''' Post process trace bitmap is no longer included by default with the EggBot extensions for Inkscape. It is still available [https://github.com/evil-mad/EggBot/tree/master/inkscape_contributed in our repository] for manual installation.
 In the presentation which follows, Inkscape's Trace Bitmap tool is discussed.  However, this is not a tutorial on the use of that tool.  For tutorials on tracing bitmaps, please see the links cited on the [[Tracing images]] page.
