Basically, the outline of the line image is converted into pieces of broken lines. To make a more detailed pattern, you need more points on the broken lines, which also increases the length of the file. In general, Normal provides a sufficient resolution without making the file too large. If Coarse gives a satisfactory result for a particular image, select Coarse in order to keep the file as small as possible. Select Fine only if the image contains many small details, and Normal does not give a satisfactory result. This setting determines how the black lines of the line image are converted into pattern lines. ON: the black lines are replaced with pattern lines following the center of the black lines. You can set the degree of detailedness with the slider (if the degree is high, even very thick black lines will be replaced with a center line). ON Thinning Process OFF: the black lines are replaced with pattern lines following the border of the black lines.
