Photoshop, Painter and Illustrator Side-by-side

Photoshop, Illustrator, and Painter are three popular graphics software packages that are commonly used by production artists, fine artists, and Web graphics artists. Each has capabilities that the other don't: Photoshop is known for its image editing features, Illustrator for its type handling and vector-based shape building abilities, and Painter for its traditional, "painterly" effects. Using a system of easy-to read charts, this book shows readers how to use these tools effectively inconjuntion with one another, side-by-side.
