Adobe Illustrator: A Visual Guide for the Mac is an inspirational and practical guide for using this leading PostScript illustration program. The book's clear, colorful illustrations and concise, information-packed captions show step-by-step how to accomplish the graphic effects that electronic designers and illustrators use daily in their work. Through demonstrations created especially for this book, as well as an "inside" look at the work of internationally recognized designers, the book shows beginning, intermediate, and even advanced users how to get the most from Adobe Illustrator.
