Adobe Illustrator is also helpful for artists, accountants, digital marketers, engineers, and so on.
Since the app is very precise and intuitive to use, you don’t necessarily need to be a graphic designer to enjoy this innovative tool. This is especially important if you have any paths created by tracing or with mobile apps. Illustrator also supports multiple artboards and Microsoft's Surface Dial.Ī great feature introduced in late 2019 was the "Simplify Tool", which aims to remove the unnecessary anchor points. This popular design app has come a long way since then, offering numerous improvements and a wide range of applications. In its early versions, Adobe Illustrator allowed users to design and develop fonts, typography, logos and use their creativity to create graphic designs.
Initially designed for Apple Macintosh, the development of Adobe Illustration by Adobe officially started in 1985 and launched in 1987. Is one of the most popular vector graphics editors and design programs out there. Rebecca Bennett is a member of the Support team at Avenza Systems and loves ice cream almost as much as she loves making creative and visually appealing maps.A Short History Of Adobe Illustrator 🧑🏽🏫 Have fun celebrating National Spumoni Day, and have fun making your own infographics! Click below to see the finished infographic. The graphs use the same colours as the maps, and for finishing touches I added the ice cream symbols and fun facts. Once the legend was created, I created the graphs using Adobe Illustrator’s Graph Tool. You can change the legend entries size, and the legend key font, size, colour, as well as details about the title, and the border. There are lots of options for customization when creating the legend. To create a MAP Theme legend, select your MAP Theme Stylesheet and click the Legend button at the bottom of the window. My favourite part of MAP Themes is that it’s super easy to create a MAP Theme legend after. I then followed the same steps for the dairy production map. Once I’d generated my rules, I applied my MAP Theme. I then chose the fill colour to be a custom colour group I created with spumoni-inspired colours. I used the ‘Batch Generate Rules’ option and chose 5 classes. One MAP Theme for the dairy production, and one for ice cream consumption. I created a MAP Theme for each map, based on the attributes I created. MAP Themes are an easy way to stylize areas, lines, and points. Once the tables were joined, I used MAP Themes to stylize the maps. Once the spreadsheet was created, I joined the tables in the MAP Attributes. To create each map, an Excel spreadsheet was created with information about the countries milk production, as well as the average amount of ice cream eaten.
The infographic consists of two different maps one showing the amount of ice cream eaten per capita around the world, and another showing the amount of milk produced per year by country. Cherry, pistachio, and chocolate or vanilla are the most common. What is spumoni you may ask? Spumoni is a molded gelato with different layers and, usually containing nuts and fruit! Spumoni is usually 3-4 flavours. Curious about how I made it? Keep reading! Instead of making just a map to celebrate this layered frozen delight, I made an infographic, containing not just one but two maps! Using a combination of Adobe Illustrator and MAPublisher tools, this infographic has graphs and two maps teaching you fun facts all about spumoni, gelato, and ice cream. You might have noticed, we like to celebrate national food days here at Avenza Systems. Adobe Illustrator and MAPublisher work perfectly together to make infographics simple like the one I made for National Spumoni Day. Infographics are a great way to transform less than exciting data into a visualization that is both digestible and fun to look at.
