Fireworks X for Windows and Macintosh: Visual QuickStart Guide is designed to be easy to use. Like the other books in this popular series, it takes a visual, task-oriented approach, so readers can look up what they need to know and get straight to work. It covers all the tools and techniques for creating graphics-artwork to special effects-from within Fireworks and for exporting artwork out of Fireworks in a variety of formats. Plus, the book highlights all the features new to this version of Fireworks. Fireworks is the Swiss Army knife of Web graphics production. With this single software application, users can create, modify, optimize, and output all the Web graphic elements-text, photos, buttons, banners, animation, and interface elements. This then enables them to produce sophisticated, graphics-rich, interactive Web sites with great ease and speed. The latest version of Fireworks follows its award-winning forebears in offering enhanced compatibility with Dreamweaver and other editors; more sophisticated effects, new import, optimization and export capabilities; and much more.
