that’s funny actually, I saw a tutorial a while back on doing an image just like that. It may have been on the layers magazine site.

it was about doing the look of an Apple Ipod commercial.

heres one, but this is not of the quality of the one I remember:

annoying at first, but you need to know the modifiers to get anywhere with paths in illustrator.

a decent book will have a quick reference chart for the modifiers and keystrokes, so you can learn them as you go.

hi thanks for your help.

I have hebrew fonts in my font book that are enabled, however they will not work in illustrator. i’ve googled this quite a bit without a satisfactory answer.

as much as I would prefer to be able to work with the text in the program for exactly the reasons you mentioned..i don’t know if its possible and i would rather not spend 30 dollars on a font just to see if it will work. i’ve tried free fonts with no luck, despite being true type, the font book won’t recognize them.

so I guess the question is, if the text pastes as compound paths or what have you and they are then expanded, why wouldn’t they behave and look smooth like other paths?
