Praise from Ginna Baldassarre, Sr. Product Manager, Creative Suite, Adobe Systems Inc.
"After reading this book, I was so happy to see that we have a great resource/tool that really highlights the strides Adobe has taken to really integrate these products. Keith's book is so easy to follow and really targets the benefits and efficiencies gained by having all the creative tools work seamlessly. Keith really makes you feel like you are in his studio with him, watching him work, and learning about all the different products. It's almost a magical experience.
After reading this book, I know that you will continue to fall in love with all the new features the CS3 applications have to offer..and perhaps learn some new things that you didn't know! I know I did."
