Product Overview
(All Features - .pdf)
Adobe Illustrator CS3 software is a fundamental part of the creative workflow, enabling you to efficiently create sophisticated vector artwork for print, web and interactive, and mobile and motion designs.
Use powerful, precise creative tools
Color and creative effects
Live Color
Explore, apply, and control color variations using Live Color, which lets you select any artwork and interactively edit the colors to see results immediately. Use the Color Guide panel to quickly choose tints, shades, or harmonious color combinations.
Swatches panel
Organize swatches in groups and view them in organized hierarchies. Automatically name them by their color values, or name them intuitively. Easily access swatch libraries from a pop-up panel menu, view swatches in Adobe Bridge, and share them with Adobe Photoshop® CS3 and InDesign® CS3 software.
Live Paint
Easily paint any closed or partially closed area of your artwork with the Live Paint Bucket, which automatically detects and corrects gaps and lets you interactively select colors from a Swatch palette for faster work.
Envelopes and live distortion
Warp, liquify, and distort artwork any way imaginable with envelopes and live distortion tools. Easily access envelope options from the Control panel.
Live effects
Apply live effects without affecting the underlying artwork, so you can edit at any time without starting over.
Unlimited transparency
Expand your design options with blending modes and transparency effects similar to those in Photoshop.
Gradient Mesh
Simulate airbrush and watercolor effects by adding multiple colors and precisely controlling the transitions between colors.
3D effects
Turn 2D shapes into fully editable 3D objects by extruding and revolving paths. Add lighting and wrap images around 3D shapes to easily create objects such as packaging mock-ups, and separate spot colors applied to 3D artwork.
Clipping masks
Use clipping masks to hide areas of an object or group, crop placed images, or cut intricate shapes. Quickly find the clipping mask options in the Control panel. |
