What's Next: Illustrator® 10: Level

series. If you are looking to expand your graphical
creation capabilities by adding another Adobe graphics
tool to your skill set, PWIalso offers a full
line of courses on Photoshop. The line begins with the
course Photoshop® 7.0: Level 1.
Certification: Illustrator® 10: Level 3
is one of three PWIcourseware titles that address
the Adobe Certified Expert (ACE) Program objectives
for the Illustrator 10.0 exam. The ACE Program is for
graphic designers, Web designers, developers, systems
integrators, value-added resellers, and business professionals
who seek recognition for their expertise with specific
Adobe products. Certification candidates must pass a
product proficiency exam in order to become an Adobe
Certified Expert.
Performance-Based Objectives
Lesson objectives help students become comfortable
with the course, and also provide a means to evaluate
learning. Upon successful completion of this course,
students will be able to:
Import graphics that use several different file formats,
both linked and unlinked, and export graphics and animations
using several different file formats.
Create, edit, and apply tiled patterns, and design,
customize, and employ special brushes to create dynamic
visual effects.
Adjust the size of the artboard to create oversize
prints, and reset the default angle to enable perspective
drawing with guides.
Import and format text with advanced type editing
options such as autohyphenation, smart punctuation,
linked text boxes, and text wrapping.
Match colors between Illustrator and other applications
that use color management.
Perform trapping to prevent gaps in printing due to
potential misregistration.
