Broaden a Line

[Momma C]

I am creating coloring sheets for children. An artist is drawing the pictures for me. Is there a way to click on the lines (that the artist has drawn and have been scanned into paint.net) and broaden them to make thick smooth lines?

Depending on the nature of the drawings, either Pencil Sketch, Ink Sketch, or Outline object can help provide that.

Here's a fast crude example of Outline Object:

you might try to remove everything except the lines to edit if you can use magic want to highlight everything but the lines, and delete the rest, then paste it into an un edited copy as new layer where you can isolate the qualities without affecting anything else. I sometimes use AAs assistant which does some interesting things with objects on a transparent background, thickening. smoothing etc but isnt perfect, object outline also isnt perfect, but effective on transparent background

(find AAs assistant in this pack)
