Overall, this latest edition of Illustrator builds on its existing best bits while making some important tweaks to its productivity and integration with other Creative Suite applications. In video and film mode, there is built-in support for title and action safeguides and transparent backgrounds. This rendition of Illustrator is at home within any of the aforementioned environments - a fact you're reminded of on opening a new document, where a handy dialog appears asking whether you want to create a print document, a web document or even a video and film document, which gives you a selection of standard video sizes. Layers and grouping info are also supported, as well as the dynamic text and input text in Flash. Illustrator files can now be pasted directly into Flash, which recognises paths, anchor points, colour schemes and profiles (including video and film settings and NTSC CV support amongst others). Flash and Illustrator have always had a harmonious relationship, and within CS3 this is exploited even further. The second further overhaul of Illustrator is only apparent once outside of its environment.
As Illustrator tends to be the first tool to reach for at the birth of a design project, this is a fantastically productive feature. All profiles are editable and can be saved down as user-profiles which can be deployed across CS3. Support for colour profiles is further enhanced by the ability to map colour schemes across Pantone's library as well as metallic, spot and any other special finishes. And if the results don't suit, simply flick to another colour scheme. Rather than explaining the science, Live Colour simply maps the colour paths out for you, meaning your entire colour scheme for a document can be experimented with in one click. In essence, Live Colour maps colour schemes by one of 23 classic colour harmonies that observe the design laws of Complementary, Analogous, Triad and Monochromatic. At first look it feels like a cheat's approach to colour schematics, but in use is a powerful new colouring tool. The first, and most immediately appealing of these, is Live Colour. Performance and looks aside, CS3 introduces two major new features.
ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR CS3 REVIEWS PRO
Illustrator CS3 doesn't just seem newer, it's an all-round better vector editor than it used to be. Adobe Premiere Pro CS3, Adobe Encore CS3, Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended, Adobe Illustrator CS3, Adobe Flash CS3 Professional, and Adobe Soundbooth CS3. Of course, grouping and locking layers allowed you to do this the long way in previous releases, but again, it's these kinds of tweaks that have really shaped this new release. With it enabled, you can select a group, layer or sub-layer and work on it quite aggressively, safe in the knowledge you won't disturb the surrounding artwork.
Isolation Mode is a further new feature that makes perfect sense in use.
