Amazon.com Review
Illustrator 7 Complete addresses both Windows and Macintosh versions of the products and covers everything from interface basics to Web output. First you learn about customizing the interface; creating, importing, and exporting files; using templates; and using Illustrator's drawing and path-creating tools. Then the authors discuss how to paint, create patterns, edit graphics, work with raster objects and layers, drag artwork into Photoshop, use type tools and create text effects, create masks and blends, work with special effects, and use built-in and third-party filters. Finally, you learn about outputting your work, whether it's bound for a printer or the Web. You get an excellent combination of step-by-step instructions and explanations of features, and the book is well-illustrated throughout.

It hurts. It smarts. It burps. It farts.,

This review is from: Illustrator 7 Complete (Paperback)
After reading this book, I wanted to quit the graphic arts and take up plumbing. Unfortunately, my wife talked me out of it. So I've filed for divorce. Thanks, Hayden.

Reference, not read-through,
By Little Bull Creations (ferdinand@littlebull.com) (Selma, Oregon) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Illustrator 7 Complete (Paperback)
It was required as a textbook at Rogue Community College (Grants Pass, Oregon) for the Illustrator course. The course was probably more helpful, and we're likely more enamored of the program itself, but the book has a permanent slot on our reference shelf. Not very readable, but packed full of information highlighting the improvements since the previous version of the program. The authors realize the importance of keyboard shortcuts, for which we are grateful.
