About the Book

The only book on Illustrator 10 you need! Special Edition Using Adobe Illustrator 10 is best suited for the graphics professional who has at least some working knowledge of the software.

Peter draws special attention to new features including: full Mac OS X coverage; new drawing capabilities including grids, lines, arcs, compound-shape enhancements, and Flare tool; enhanced Web features including symbols, slicing, dynamic data-driven graphics, enhanced Flash and SVG support; improved effects including warping and envelope distortion, and Liquify tools; increased productivity with new Magic Wand selection tool, dynamic data-driven graphics, improved interoperability with other Adobe products, and asset management scripting. All of this information is organized by feature so that graphics professionals can easily find the information they want when they want it. Special Edition Using Adobe Illustrator 10 also has several appendices that serve as a quick guide to all of Illustrator's tools, palettes, and menus.
