Book Description
Although Illustrator is one of the most popular drawing programs around, it isn't particularly intuitive, even for longtime graphic artists and computer users. Fortunately, with Illustrator 6 For Macs For Dummies, using this powerful application can soon become second nature. In this complete, easy-to-understand reference, graphics and multimedia experts Adele Droblas Greenberg and Seth Greenberg cover all the essential Illustrator topics concisely, so that you can go straight to the information you need -- and get right back to the work at hand. Illustrator 6 for Macs For Dummies reveals the ins and outs of such Illustrator subjects as Creating and editing paths -- the lines and shapes that make up an Illustrator drawing Organizing a drawing into different layers for easy editing Taking advantage of built-in and third-party transformation capabilities to apply special effects to your creations Filling shapes with patterns and color gradients Working wonders with typography Outputting your drawings -- whether for the World Wide Web or for traditional printing

4 out of 5 stars Useful for me.   September 23, 2002
I thought this book was fairly well done, and I have used it as a reference tool several times. The examples were quite helpful, especially for the occasional user like myself.


3 out of 5 stars Numerous errors and omissions frustrate this "dummy"   October 29, 1997
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I have used "Dummies" books before and found them useful; I was therefore disappointed to find I had wasted my money on their "Illustrator 6" volume. There is some helpful information in it, but I encountered errors and omissions in a number of the exercises which forced me to go over them several times before I could extract the information. The "Dummies" books often ridicule software companies for their faulty documentation, but this book shows that IDG may be guilty of the same thing; they don't seem to have tested this book on any "dummies" before springing it on the public.
