Top reasons to upgrade to Adobe Illustrator CS3

Explore, apply, and control color variations 
using Live Color, which lets you select any 

artwork and interactively edit the colors  
to see results immediately. Use the Color 

Guide panel to quickly choose tints, shades,  

or harmonious color combinations.

Import native Illustrator files into Flash CS3 
Professional, or copy and paste artwork from 
Illustrator to Flash with paths, anchor points, 
gradients, clipping masks, and symbols  
intact. Layers, groups, and object names  

are also preserved.

Drawing tools and controls
Draw in Illustrator more quickly and  

fluidly than ever. Easier and more flexible 

anchor point selection, improved operating 
performance, and a new Eraser tool help you 
create artwork efficiently and intuitively.

Enjoy more responsive drawing and editing 
with improved performance in key operations, 
including faster screen redraw, object moving, 
panning, scaling, and transformations.

Control panel
Discover more options faster and free  
up screen space by accessing anchor  
point controls, clipping masks, envelope 
distortions, and more from the context-

sensitive Control panel.

Quickly remove areas of artwork with the 
Eraser tool as easily as you erase pixels in 
Photoshop, and enjoy complete control  

over the width, shape, and smoothness  
of the erasure.

Create artwork easily by selecting prebuilt 
profiles for various types of media, and save 

custom profiles that specify such setup 
parameters as artboard dimensions, styles, 
and color spaces.

Crop Area tool
Define crop areas interactively for print or 
export. Choose preset web ratios or video 
formats with safe areas, and set crop marks 
intuitively. Define multiple crop areas and 
easily move between them as needed.
