This book provides a clear, concise, and coherent
introduction to Adobe Illustrator CS. Illustrator has an overwhelming set of
tools, features, and effects. Some of these features are relatively esoteric,
and part of my job as author of this book was to identify the Illustrator
features you really need as an aspiring graphic designer
or digital artist.
To do that, I’ve emphasized and gone into detail about how to use
the Pen tool, how to create and manage illustrations, and how to prepare your
illustrations for various forms of output. This knowledge is the key to
understanding Illustrator (and other vector art programs), and you’ll use it
nearly every time you use the program, regardless of your level of
experience.
Illustrator’s vector-based logic can be disorienting. I’ve
been teaching and writing about vector-based graphic tools since before you were
born. OK, maybe not—but for 16 years. In that time, I’ve learned (through trial
and error) how to demystify Illustrator and make the learning process both
effective and fun.
