Perform Advanced Tasks And Functions in Illustrator

  • 02/01/96

DrawTools enhances Adobe Illustrator with tools that add new functions and features.

DrawTools Color gives five color filters that virtually eliminate the need to exit Illustrator when adjusting colors, density, saturation, or controlling brightness and contrast. It also lets one quickly edit color ramps and curves and easily mix and replace colors. Users can convert color to grayscale or create a multi-tone with a single mouse click.

DrawTools Move gives single-step front and back movement within or between layers for single, multiple or grouped objects, and also provides the ability to easily exchange one object's level with another. Users can also quickly position object pairs relative to each other without knowing the level or layer of either object.

DrawTools Shape lets users project objects onto a limitless variety of 3D shapes. Extensis, Portland, OR, (800) 500-4743. M
