Customer Reviews & Comments
I've never used Illustrator before, my background is as a programmer for business applications, but now that I'm retired, I'm indulging my budding love for graphic design. I bought the whole CS2 bundle, LOVE IT, but of course it's very complicated, especially if you're just getting into graphic design. This book is a great place to start. This particular edition is MUCH cheaper than the deluxe edition, because all the graphics are reproduced in black & white. For me, the only chapter where that made a significant difference is, no surprise, the chapter on color, but I think that will be a subjective judgment you'll need to make for yourself. In addition to learning the basics of using Illustrator, the book also addresses some of the integration with the other programs in the suite, which I found to be very useful. Loved it!
