' Provides additional end-of-chapter workshops and online resources for readers who like to learn through hands-on projects... ' Helps upgraders by presenting a detailed list of new features, indexed to the pages where these features are covered Adobe Photoshop CS4 On Demand offers tightly focused coverage of the techniques Photoshop users will need most on a day-to-day basis. The many new features covered in this edition include: choosing render settings; 3D objects, layers, and conversions; ray tracing; Smooth Zoom; Spherical options; CS4 Tablet improvements; performance optimization; printing improvements, and much more.
