Win a free copy of Phantasm CS Studio
2009 at 03.10 pm posted by Veerle Pieters
Do you remember my article about Phantasm CS Studio? Well, Astute Graphics is now holding a design competition, and in honor of the launch I’ve been offered to give away a copy of this fabulous Illustrator plugins serie.
About Phantasm CS Studio
Phantasm CS is a range of plugins for Adobe Illustrator. Phantasm CS Studio is the most extended package of the 3 the plugin series including:
- A set of tools to adjust the color of an illustration such as Brightness & Contrast, Curves, Levels, Hue/Saturation etc.
- A set of creative tools to convert your artwork into Halftones or Duotones
- Advanced output preview tools such as overprint control, full color separations and ink coverage
- The ability to edit in-line embedded images via native Photoshop file format
The range of plugins is accessed via the Effects menu and is applied as a 'live' Effect on the illustration, which means that the user can edit these at any time via the Appearance palette.
The Astute Graphics website now also features a new 'Free' section which includes sample vector Halftones (no requirement for Phantasm CS Designer | Studio) as well as a range of Styles and Actions for Phantasm CS range customers.
