With the release by Adobe® of their new CS4 creative suite, Illustrator has once more gained a new raft of features including multi-artboards and many efficiency-enhancing upgrades.
Astute Graphics has worked closely with Adobe to ensure the acclaimed and award-winning Phantasm CS plugin range is available immediately, including upgrade options for existing customers. Complimenting the existing range, which remains available for Illustrator CS through to CS3, the new versions integrate equally well into the new look and feel of Illustrator CS4 as well as catering for all new Illustrator features.
Changes to Illustrator CS4 which affect all Phantasm CS plugins includes:
* Improved live Effect handling via the improved Appearance panel — a multiple selection of same Effects can now be controlled in one step.
* Illustrator’s enhanced gradients, which can be defined with levels of transparency at any stage, are handled correctly.
* Phantasm CS Studio caters for multi-artboards with both the Output Preview toolsets and the full separations system.
Phantasm CS users now take the additional essential color control offered by the plug-in range for granted. This upgrade ensures these capabilities continue for the leading design package on both Windows® and Mac® operating systems.
Please note that Illustrator CS to CS3 versions of the Phantasm CS range do not function with Illustrator CS4; upgrades are essential due to the many internal changes that have taken place. The cost of upgrades depends on which version is being upgraded; details are available via the Upgrade page.
All versions, ranging from £25 to £89+VAT before volume discounts, are available for immediate purchase and download exclusively via www.phantasmcs.com
