illustrator worth it?
i got a copy of illustrator 10, i use photoshop, and honestly i love it, is it worth taking the time to learn illustrator, i've check it out occationaly but never been able to pick anything up without reading anything, photoshop i learned alot just from playing around but illustrator seems to be harder to do that. how hard is it to learn illustrator?

<strong>Illustrator is a great Adobe deal. I'm not that great, and have been using it for a while...but stick with it, and soon you will be able to make more than circles and squares
haha thanks
could somone suggest a book or just use the tutorial that comes with it (i assume there is a PDF file with it?)
<strong>Illustrator is the most amazing program ever.</strong><hr></blockquote>
Yup, belongs in the Software Hall of Fame.
Used it since v1.0 and haven't ever considered any other draw program.

Didn't it come with a manual?

dont you worry about that haha
i like books, i didnt' learn photoshop with the manual, i used it and read photoshop 7 down and dirty tricks later which just added to knowledge
On my old Mac, I was using an old version of FreeHand (version 3.1), which was perfect. However, my drawings cannot be read by FreeHand 10 !
So I was considering another drawing program. Illutrator 10 may be it, but I find it so complex (FreeHand 10 too, anyway), I don't know if I'll use it.
I have a very tough problem because of this. Which drawing program should I use for scientific schematics ? Should I learn Illustrator with a book, or just by playing with it ?
