I have very nearly zero knowledge of Photoshop and digital graphics in general, so excuse me for what is almost certainly going to be a dumb question.
Does PS elements have a feature to trace around parts of a scanned in picture to make a line drawing of it? IE: could I use it to make a line transfer of a scan of original engraving (I'm trying to practice 18th and 19th Century designs, not ripping of current engravers)
I've looked at the literature and can't tell one way or another. I'm sure it's just because I don't yet have enough of that vocabulary to tell. If not PS E then what program would be good for that?
My drawing is still crap so I was thinking this was a way to help develop the engraving skills for those historic styles while my ability to draw in that style also develops.
