Overview
For almost two decades, the best-selling Visual QuickStart
Guides by Elaine Weinmann and Peter Lourekas have been the
textbooks of choice in classrooms and the go-to tutorial and
reference for art and design professionals. This edition includes
their trademark features: clear, concise, step-by-step
instructions; hundreds of full-color illustrations; screen captures
of program features; and supplemental tips and sidebars in every
chapter.
This fully updated edition for Illustrator CS6 covers the new
enhancements and features, including significant upgrades to the
interface (including to the Control panel), gradients in strokes,
Image Trace, and pattern creation and editing.
The new and updated Illustrator CS6 features are clearly marked
with bright red stars in both the table of contents and main
text.
Readers can follow the steps in a tutorial fashion, or use the book
as a reference guide to individual program features. Many of the
key illustrations used in the book are available via Web download
for practice by readers.
