About Exploring Adobe Illustrator CS6
Product Description Packed with vivid illustrations and practical applications, Exploring Adobe Illustrator CS6 delivers a design-driven exploration of the foundation features of the latest version of Adobe Illustrator CS6. Step-by-step tutorials derived from the kind of projects that a graphic designer might typically encounter and profiles of designers and their work in Illustrator are two of the hallmarks of this proven and popular text. The book examines the tools and features of Adobe Illustrator's newest release and shows how to create vector graphics and drawings for both print and the Web with fundamental design elements in mind. Rich pedagogy includes an "Exploring On Your Own" sidebar that encourages practice beyond the projects and tutorials in the book, and hundreds of new illustrations integrated throughout drive home key design concepts while demonstrating exceptional digital illustration. The Data Files used to complete the projects found in the book are now available online. For access information please refer to the directions available in the preface of the book.
