How often have you wished you had access to the team behind your favorite software--in
this case, Adobe Illustrator--so that you could really pick their brains about
all of its coolest features? With this book, you do. In these pages the Adobe
Creative Team gives you a guided tour of the graphics powerhouse, Illustrator
CS. Best of all, it does so at your pace. Whether your beautifully designed graphics
end up in print, the Web, broadcast video, or even cell phone displays, this book
shows you how to get them there--easily, elegantly, and efficiently. You'll find
step-by-step, project-based lessons in all of Illustrator's key features, including
those that are new to CS: powerful new type tools, the Scribble Effect, hundreds
of professionally designed templates, support for 3D graphics, and more. Each
chapter contains a project that builds on your growing knowledge of the program,
and a companion CD includes all the files needed to complete the book's lessons.
