**ok, awesome. you’ve been totally helpful. thank you!! i dunno what paper it’s gonna be printed on, cuz it’s not really for printing, its just a general logo eps, so i assume they will be using it for several different things. :beam: **

they will probably want the pantone colour names for use across all there branding and media, to ensure coerance.
If i were you i would name the following to ensure they know the exact colour:
pantone swatchs
cmyk values of each
hex numbers of each
rgb values of each

These should cover all medias (web, print etc)

Hey mario, firstly congratulation on the birth of your baby girl :slight_smile: shes sooo cuttee , hehe :beam:

I’ve got a question for you, have you noticed there has been a change in the pantone colour codes?

i have try that lock command.
But i found that I can’t move some objects in ai file … I don’t know why… ??? Make me so confusing…

So you have tried unlock all in the objects menu, you have unticked the lock in the layers and you still cant move them?

no i hadnt noticed that, but one of the biggest things that has annoyed me was that in illustrator 8 you could use the colour picker to ‘pick’ a colour from a placed bitmap, but now you cant!

that however, is my only gripe! the new revamped pathfinder tools work a treat!

:m:

ps. have you seen a beta for v.11 yet?

I like version 10 , not hassles with it at all,

Version 11 beta?? no havent seen it,u ??

check your PM Mariofan :slight_smile:

no i aint touched the beta yet, but a friend says he will give me a copy when i see him next - cant wait!

sorry about digging up a semi-old thead, but i need some help with Illustrator, and i’m thinking someone here can help. I’ve recently re-installed Illustrator 9.0, and certain things are not the same as i remember them being.
How could i get the color picker back to the way i remember it, which was more like the Photoshop one?

EDIT: pic removed.

click on H radio button in the illustrator COlour picker pallet :smirk:

Sweet! Thanks for the swift reply, Soulty… problem solved!!

no probs dude :wink:

What is the main function of illustrator, to make rendered stuff? or make 3d objects?? etc…

illustrator is a very popular “vector” program, it has many uses in almost every aspect of design, from concept pages for flash to coporate Id (business cards, logos, stationary) The main feature of illustrator is that since its a vector based program, work created in illustrator can be scaled to larger sizes without loosing any quality.
