This info-packed guide lets users get right down to work by focusing on the Illustrator CS3 features they're most likely to use and showcasing each in a stand-alone tip--complete with a relevant hint or two and a graphic example.

Before they know it, users will be using the new path eraser tool and making vivid artwork using the new Live Color feature and the updated recolor filters, as well as creating symbols and applying instances and exporting their work to Adobe Flash.

 Rating:  - Amazing Illustrator Book for all levels of usersThis book is great for every kind of Illustrator user. If you are new to Illustrator it gives you straight out instruction on how to accomplish several important tasks in an easy way. If you are an Illustrator expert it's perfect for looking up a feature you don't use often to get a refresh on or more insight to the feature then you had before. This book is also great for anyone upgrading from previous versions, it has a nice overview of all the new tools and features. Also this book doesn't add ... Read More Rating:  - Just The Basics, but well doneThis is an excellent reference for someone that simply needs to quickly know how to do something in Illustrator CS3 (should also be useful for CS4) without having to wade through too many pages to do it. The truth is, what is contained in this book covers 95% of what you need to know, and it has become the first book I grab when I need to refresh my memory about a technique. I would think a student would want to learn what is covered in here first, as it serves a good framework when they go back ... Read More Rating: - Good book for people who need instructions in a hurryI learned Illustrator on a need-to-know basis. Like many busy professionals, I learned only as much as I needed to know when I needed to know it. In the past I tried using the Classroom in a Book to increase my Illustrator skills, and while I generally like that approach - the book comes with a CD of sample files that allow the user to complete an interesting, attractive and complex project while working through each chapter - I've never managed to find the time to work through a whole chapter in ... Read More Rating: - The most straight forward way of delivering all you need to knowThis is an excellent series of books. I started out with Photoshop and went on to study Illustrator and Dreamweaver. Is less then a quarter of the size of all the other instructional books out ther but packs ten times of easy to read and understand knowledge. I highly recommend it! Rating:  - it's okit's a good book, but it's all in black and white, not like other design books that have magazine paper and color photos explaining the points. there's a lot of text, but not many pictures or diagrams explaining, which in my case helps. |
