Freehand to Adobe Illustrator migration - Half-day
This quick yet intensive four-lesson course provides the Freehand converter with hands-on, relevant examples to facilitate the quickest possible migration from Freehand to Illustrator.
You are a graphic designer or professional who is already very experienced in Freehand and you have heard of or dabbled in Illustrator and want more in-depth training of the application and the management of complex illustrations, without stunting your existing workflow.
Description The new palettes, tools and menu items will be thoroughly investigated, and likened to the Freehand equivalents to further understand and utilize the capabilities of this high-end layout application. Using prior Freehand knowledge, students will tackle complex theoretical examples and work with a variety of examples of document scenarios that ease the leap from Freehand to Illustrator. We recommend this course for those planning to migrate from Freehand to Illustrator or to update from previous versions of Illustrator.
