Creating a new document in Illustrator CS6 Tutorial

By
Illustrator CS6 Tutorial
In this movie, I will show you how to create a new document inside Illustrator CS6 Tutorial . Like most of the movies in this course, this one has cross-platform. So even though I'm showing you how things work on a PC, everything works exactly the same on a Mac. You start off much as you might imagine by going to the File menu and choosing the New command where you have that standard keyboard shortcut Ctrl+N here on a PC, or Command+N on a Mac. That'll go ahead and bring up the New Document dialog box. Your first option is to name the document. Now technically you don't name the file until you save it, however this gives you a chance to identify the document upfront.



I am just going to paste in a name I created in advance because I am a terrible typist.  The next option allows you to select from a few predefined Profiles all of which will dial in settings inside this dialog box. So if you intend to create a document for Commercial Reproduction then you select Print. If you're trying to dummy up a web page then you select Web. If you want to create a document for a device such as an iPad or iPhone then you have got this Devices option and so forth. I am going to go ahead and switch to Device for a second so that you can see that we have a lot of different devices to select from. In the case of iPad however the information is little out of date. If you're designing for an iPad 3, then you want a Width 1536 pixels and a Height of 2048, much higher resolution than the earlier iPads.

Coloring and Line Work in Illustrator CS6

By
Final Product What You'll Be Creating Do a search on “coloring comics,” and you get dozens of Photoshop tutorials. They all seem to involve building up areas of color with transparent brushes. Now you can achieve that same effect with Illustrator CS5, using the Bristle Brush. Unlike Photoshop, however, Illustrator gives you the flexibility to edit individual paths. Since Illustrator’s brush strokes are vector, you can change the shape, width, color and blending mode to achieve exactly the look you want. You can even delete a brush stroke you don’t want. Try that, Photoshop! This tutorial will use another feature introduced in CS5, Draw Inside. Let’s get started! Step 1 You can use this technique with any line art or illustration. I am going to quickly create my line art by tracing a source photo from Wikimedia Commons , photo by Guillaume Piolle . Place the photo in your document and make a Template layer by double-clicking the layer name to bring up its...

How to Use the New Image Trace in Adobe Illustrator CS6

By
Today we will learn the new features of the tracing engine in Adobe Illustrator CS6 and talk about its new functions. We will trace a photo, a sketch and a texture; then we will compare the results between Adobe Illustrator CS5 and CS6. Let’s get started! In this tutorial I’ll use a photo a strawberry (credit to deviantART user StockProject1 ) ; the sketch was kindly provided by Victoria Vasilyeva and the texture (credit to deviantART user ~kingkool6 ). Step 1 In Adobe Illustrator CS6 the settings of the tracing is in the new Image Trace panel (Window > Image Trace). This allows us to use other panels and tools while tracing. Such features did not exist in Adobe Illustrator CS5 as well as in earlier releases; the setting of the tracing was made in the Tracing Options dialog box, and then it was impossible to access the other objects and interfaces. Step 2 The presets have also changed between Adobe Illustrator CS5 and CS6 The new preset, "Silhouettes...
