Use Monochrome Threshold to turn all shades or colors in the picture into either black or white. It acts on the whole picture. Monochrome Threshold creates defined areas that are suitable for creating the final design.
The Monochrome Threshold page of the ExpressDesign Assistant only appears when you are creating a Quick Trace or Quick Border design.
Note: Interior details within enclosed shapes in the picture are not preserved when creating a Quick Border.
