Descriptions Adobe (R) Illustrator (R) 8.0 Classroom in a Book: A Classroom in a Book (Classroom in a Book (Adobe)) for Free
If you're looking for a thorough, hands-on guide to Adobe Illustrator 8, give this one a close look. Developers at Adobe created the book's well-rounded exercises and explanations for beginning users who want to master the core features of this newly updated illustration program. The included CD-ROM has project files for working along with the book. Each chapter, or lesson, begins with a "Getting Started" section and ends with review questions and answers, so you can better evaluate what you've learned. A full-colour section shows you the process or results of each lesson. First, you get a tour of the interface and learn how to work with the program's shape tools, colour, patterns, gradients, lines, curves and brushes. Next, you transform objects, manipulate type, blend shapes and colours, work with the Pathfinder palette, use layers, apply watercolour and airbrush effects, and draw 3-D cylinders and boxes with the illusion of depth. Finally, you're ready for output. You learn how to create colour separations, prepare your work for the printer, work with Photoshop images, and optimise graphics for the Web. From beginning to end, the book is full of helpful hints for creating good-looking illustrations. --Kathleen Caster, Good Books To Read 2016 .
