Illustrator CS4, Academic License (EDU), Mac, 1 user, ES
Explore new paths with the essential vector tool
Adobe® Illustrator® CS4 software is a comprehensive vector graphics environment with new transparency in gradients and multiple artboards that invite you to explore more efficient ways to design.
Seven ways Illustrator CS4 saves you time and money
Easily manage related works with up to 100 artboards in a single file Time-saver
Keep up to 100 related artboards in a single Adobe® Illustrator® CS4 file to reduce organizational headaches and streamline project editing. Save, export, and print artboards independently or together.
Work faster and more intuitively with transparency in gradients Time-saver
Apply transparent colors in gradients with new simple to use on-object controls. Dramatically reduce the time required to create and manipulate these key design effects without the bother of complicated opacity masks.
Streamline working with fills, strokes, effects, and more Time-saver
Stop jumping among panels and menus to complete your designs. Accomplish tasks in less than half the time* with an updated Appearance panel that allows you to apply all your changes directly on one or more selected vector objects.
Save time and money with Separations Preview Time-saver
Avoid the rework and expense that results from color output surprises such as unexpected spot colors, overprint problems, and more. Illustrator CS4 lets you fix color separations before sending them to the printer.
Achieve greater efficiency with enhanced graphic styles Time-saver
Combine styles for unique effects and increased productivity. Thumbnails make it easier to find the style you want, and an expanded library of prebuilt styles improves your chances of finding just the ready-made style you need.
Organize your workspace with tabbed documents Time-saver
Keep the focus on your design work — tabbed documents let you maximize your workspace while still keeping all content readily at hand. Now copying and pasting between files is a snap.
Use Smart Guides to quickly scale, position, and align objects Time-saver
Align, space, rotate, and resize single or multiple objects faster using dynamic Smart Guides. The guides, object dimensions, rotation angles, and x and y coordinates appear dynamically to help speed up desired object positioning.
