5.0 out of 5 stars Beautifully done!, March 4, 1999
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Mastering Coreldraw 8 (Paperback)
I picked up this book in my local bookstore, opened the book at random in two separate places and learned something I didn't know instantly, both times. Now that's a good book! I've been an avid CorelDRAW user since it was in version 3 way back in 1993. The software has grown in capability by leaps and bounds with each new revision, and each time I get a new version I look to see if Rick Altman has written a "Mastering..." book for it. His explorations of the program make the book well worth the price. My only disappointment was that there were no color plates to better display some of the astounding power of this software. However, the CD makes up for it by providing a wonderful smorgasbord of images and samples.

5.0 out of 5 stars The ultimate CorelDRAW reference, September 10, 1998
This review is from: Mastering Coreldraw 8 (Paperback)
Rick's book is the ultimate CorelDRAW reference for hard-core illustrators. Whenever I work on a complex project, Mastering CorelDRAW is open and on my desk.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Reference, September 17, 1998
By 
This review is from: Mastering Coreldraw 8 (Paperback)
I'm a computer graphics instructor (college level) and the "Mastering" books have long been on my Highly Recommended list for students. As for Rick Altman, I've been using his Corel books for the last four versions. This is a reference book, and a beautifully complete one. Don't look here for complex projects with lengthly recipes. This is for the artist who needs to truly understand an effect or feature and get back to work. It's also readable. Students can work through chapters, or even the entire book, and they certainly won't get bored. I love following an Altman book from start to finish.
