Essential Graphic Arts Tool [Posted on 2007-06-04] I'm upgrading from Illustrator 9, so I don't know how this version compares to CS2 - but it is an order of magnitude better than AI 9. The interface is easy to customize for various types of jobs. The Live Trace function is exceptionally well done. There is also a nice video training disc included.
My only complaint is in the area of font handling. There should be the option, when opening EPS files, of converting text to outlines. This would be extremely useful when the file contains one or more fonts that aren't on my system. (I currently have to use Corel Draw 11 to do this.) Secondly, when attempting to open an Illustrator file that contains fonts I don't have, it should give me the option of choosing the replacement fonts (instead of replacing them all automatically with fonts that are nothing like the originals.)
