Photoshop users of all levels need access to the crucial information in a flash. Techniques books provide the step-by-step instructions
and how-to advice but this easy to navigate, dip-into guide provides quick answers to the inevitable 'what does that do?' questions that
all too often bring progress to a grinding halt.
The full colour A to Z format covers hundreds of tools, features and menu options
clearly and succinctly, with cross-references to related topics, screen shots and illustrative examples to help things fall into place.
A new techniques section delves deeper into key areas, providing more instruction on essential tasks in an easy, step-by-step format.
Fully updated with new CS3 features throughout, this is the Photoshop desk reference to adorn every digital image-maker's shelf.
* Intuitive
A to Z format and clear, concise definitions make this the ideal desk reference guide to Photoshop's multitude of tools, options and
features.
* Find the explanations, answers and practical advice you need to quickly get on with the task in hand - don't waste time
looking anywhere else!
* Fully updated for CS3, with source images from the book and supporting tutorials provided on the accompanying
website: www.photoshop-a-z.com.
