Brand: Adobe Illustrator EAN: 0718659082772 Format: CD-ROM Item Dimensions: Label: Adobe Manufacturer: Adobe Model: 90012374 MPN: 16000400 Number Of Items: 1 Platform: Mac OS 9 and below Publisher: Adobe Studio: Adobe Editorial Review: Amazon.com Review: Adobe Illustrator 8 offers key features for start-from-scratch graphics and design creation on your Macintosh. Since the software allows straightforward document sharing between Photoshop and PageMaker, you can work knowing your newly created images can make the jump to the Web--or beyond. Illustrator 8 borrows some key tools from Photoshop: the Layers technology, as well as the actions and navigator palette. This version also improves upon some other features. Once upon a time, for example, working with the pencil tool and your mouse meant that you had to draw a slightly jagged line unless you meticulously tampered with it. Those days are gone--as is the need to adjust the line using handles or points. Another welcome improvement is the Bounding Box Handles, which make resizing simple and allow a specified item to be treated as an object and even to be imported into Microsoft Word. For those who are familiar with other Adobe products, this software is easy to learn and use. (A warning to those who are making the jump from 6.0: you'll face a significantly reorganized menu structure.) For anyone currently using other graphics software, Illustrator can import from just about every file format, from the most popular for Web images (TIF, GIF, and JPEG) to EPS, PDF, EMF, BMP, CGM, and RTF. With greater flexibility and a more intuitive design, it's clear why Adobe Illustrator continues to set an industry standard. --Jennifer Buckendorff Amazon.com Product Description: Preferred by designers, graphic artists, technical illustrators, and business professionals around the world, Adobe Illustrator provides a combination of freedom and productivity.
