xvi, 624 pages : 24 cm +, \"One of the most important skills in Graphic Design today is the ability to integrate different software programs into a seamless whole. Yet software books continue to teach one program at a time without regard to the integration issues that lie at the heart of good digital design. The Graphic Designer's Digital Toolkit provides a comprehensive overview of the 'Big 4' digital design programs used in industry today: Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe InDesign, and QuarkXPress. The book then examines in practical detail how to merge results of these programs into good, workable design. The Graphic Designer's Digital Toolkit features a highly visual introduction to the essential tools and functions of each application from the perspective of the working designer. Readers are then given the opportunity to put what they learn to work by tackling design projects from concept to completion, with assignments drawn from the everyday world of professional graphic designers\"--Global Books in Print, Includes index, Getting Ready for Production -- Digital Image Editing: Adobe Photoshop CS2 -- Digital Illustration: Adobe Illustrator CS2 -- Digital Publishing: InDesign CS2 -- Digital Publishing: QuarkXPress 6.5
