Upgraded Book for Illustrator Upgrade

"I never understood Illustrator until I read Deke's 3.0 book. The new
edition has gotten even better, just like the program. I tell all of my
students that this is one of the clearest explanations of object-oriented
drawing I have ever seen. Not only does McClelland explain the process
thoroughly, he does it with a light, folksy style. Gosh, an Illustrator
book that's actually fun to read!" -- Sandee Cohen, Contributing Editor,
MacStreet Journal, Instructor at The New School, New York City

August 1994--Berkeley, CA--Like all good upgrades, Deke McClelland's book
on the newest version of Illustrator expands and improves upon its
predecessor. In this case, the previous edition was The Illustrator 5
Book, which was the most complete introduction to the (then) latest
version of Adobe's trailblazing illustration program and the best-selling
book on 5.0. The Illustrator 5.0/5.5 Book goes even further, fully
describing all concepts, features, and functions of both releases and
underscoring the differences. It's loaded with details and tips and tricks
covering every aspect of this comprehensive program.

Readers new to Illustrator will quickly learn how to navigate around the
program after reading introductory chapters on terms, tools, and menus and
then taking a brief tour of Illustrator 5.0. Veteran users will appreciate
the overview of how to use the new features in 5.5 as well as the appendix
highlighting the differences (increased text-handling capabilities, better
color manipulation, more plug-in enhancements, inclusion of Adobe Acrobat
for importing files created in other programs). With dozens of tasks
broken down into step-by-step techniques, and plenty of easy-to-follow
illustrations, readers will soon master the art of drawing, enhancing, and
printing complex graphics in Illustrator.

Deke McClelland has authored or co-authored more than 25 desktop publishing
and computer graphics books, including Encyclopedia Macintosh and The
Macworld Photoshop 2.5 Bible. His books have won several awards, including
a Benjamin Franklin Award for Best Computer Book (1989), and two Computer
Press Association Awards (1990, 1992). He lives in Boulder, Colorado.
