Adobe(R) Photoshop(R) 5.5 and Illustrator(R) 8.0 Advanced Classroom in a Book

by Adobe Creative Team

Assumes basic knowledge of Photoshop and Illustrator, showing how best to use each program's capabilities alone, and in combination with others. Also teaches how to integrate the two programs using features such as Links palettes, and to distinguish similarly named features (such as layers or gradients) in each. Print projects are built around advanced typography and layout, spot color, and two-color print processes. Web-optimization features are explained, and two chapters address animation, including Web banner creation and the use of After Effects for motion and video compression. Annotation c.
