Illustrator 10 Bible

In general an extremely helpful book that should be the foundation of anyone's self-taught course on Illustrator. There were some annoying omissions, which I was able to cover through other books, but overall I have found the book indespensible.

Filled with information

I have only read about half of this book, but my productivity has soared as a result. The authors really know their stuff.Very easy to follow and full of great examples.

Fantastic All in on reference!!!!!!!!

I stumbled on this book a few months ago and it has opened up the world of Illustrator to me like nothing else has been able to. It is like the book was written with me in mind. I passed it on to my friend, and she found it to be just as helpful.A great book.

Great stuff, a complete resource!

This has everything you need to know about Illustrator. I've been using it for years, but I should have picked up this book when I started. I've learned an amazing array of fantastic tips and I've been saving oodles of time since I opened the book.Highly useful.

may be not for a beginner (WYS-isNot-WYG)

This book is OK for an intermediate or an advanced user especially if you are the kind of person who can visualise what the author is talking about & & if you are comfortable with large volumes of text telling you how to do things in illustrator. This kind of visualisation to understand the concept and putting it to practice could eventually take up too much of your precious time. I especially had a tough time trying to understand what the author was talking about making seamless tiles on page 406 of the book. After referring to another book called "Illustrator 9 Wow Book" I figured out that I can make seamless tiles using a different & much more easy technique. Still I gave it a 4/5 rating since I could manage the rest of the topics in this book. If you like a visual approach on Illustrator 10 training try one of the videotraining packages on DVD...
