Publisher's Synopsis
-- Uses screen shots and step-by-step instructions rather than lengthy explanations.-- Written by an experienced graphics instructor who understands what students need to know.This is the fourth update to Peachpit's Visual QuickStart Guide to Macromedia Fireworks, a tool that creates both raster and vector-based graphics for the Web. Fireworks is more than a drawing and effects tool; it's also capable of generating buttons, image maps, simple animations, and their underlying code. Additionally, if you use other Macromedia Web tools, such as Dreamweaver or Flash, Fireworks can be used roundtrip with them when editing and updating your Web pages. This edition will cover the newest features in Fireworks, in addition to the clear, step-by-step instructions on how to use all the existing graphics and text features in the program.
