dispointed

The book is very easy to read and understand. But since the books is old you can't download the supporting files at the web site mentioned on the book. Don't buy this book get the newer version!!

Pedagogically challenged

I did get a few useful bits of information from reading this volume, but that's my point: it's organized as units of information unrelated to the real world that Illustrator is used in. This is NOT a plug for the 'Real-World' series, which, as a reference manual, isn't a tutorial or workbook. The...

Pages coming out

I am not very satisfied with my purchase because the book it's brand new, and just take it to college once a week and I am very careful with it, now the pages are coming out of the book. It's like the glue used to put the book together is gone and the book is falling apart. I would like that you...

Functional, but poorly constructed

This is a great book in it's color version only (if you're in a class or comfortable with illustration programs). But, don't bother with the B&W version Adobe Illustrator CS2 Revealed. While it doesn't matter that you don't get the CD, since you can download all the files from a source they...

Self Destructing Book

Go ahead and buy if you like throwing your money out the window. The pages fall out of the book as you read. Images are all B&W.

This was a required course book for school and it is not advertised that this is not in color and that it doesn't contain the tutorial CD necessary to follow the book. I am severely dissapointed. The binding broke right away... bad glue?? I had to punch holes in it and put it in a binder...just...

Adobe Illustrator CS2 Revealed

My book had absolutley NO color images. My classmates books were all in color. The pages are falling out of the book, and it obviously a poor imitation of the real thing!!! Very disappointed.

Thorough book but cheap glue

Let me first make it clear that I like this book. It is well structured and very good for the Illustrator newcomer. It touches almost all areas that you can use Illustrator for through short examples complete with illustrative pictures. Chris Botello has done a good job on this book and that is...

From Zero to Hero

I bought this book because I have been using Photoshop for several years but have never even opened up Illustrator. This book is amazing. I read it with ease understanding pretty much everything the first time around. Even without a knowledge in Photoshop anyone who seeks an understanding of...

Fantastic book for newbies

I've never used Illustrator before, my background is as a programmer for business applications, but now that I'm retired, I'm indulging my budding love for graphic design. I bought the whole CS2 bundle, LOVE IT, but of course it's very complicated, especially if you're just getting into graphic...
