Tap the calligraphy brush Illustrator, questions?

Hello!

I am quite new to adobe illustrator. I currently use a tablet with a pressure sensitive pen. But I want to know if it is possible to change the width of my brush profile so that I use to draw.
When I use the stylus to draw, the way I draw is set to be 'touch calligraphy brush' with the 'Basic' default width profile.
What I want to do is to be able to use the brush sensitive pressure with a different width than 'Basic' profile, while I draw.
I tried to use a calligraphy brush to get a trait that was consistent with my pressure and was not 'touch calligraphy', but from what I understand I can't change width of calligraphic profile.

If in the end, the question is this:

How can I draw on illustrator using pen and make sure the trait of my road has a different width from that is the default profile?

You cannot use a width with a calligraphy brush profile at all.

If you want to apply a width profile, drawing with the pencil tool. If you want to determine the width by pressure profiles, you must use the dynamic Sketch plugin.

  • Tap the calligraphy and the line of characters

    I do a simple real design. I have a PC touchscreen computer.  Call the 2 lines with my finger. I want the two rows to have the same weight - not thick or thin - only a consistent size to a point or a thickness.  Well when I have a large size - the lines are a uniform 1'.  But when I reduce the 2 lines, the left swirl becomes thick and thin. When you make the reduction I like uniform scale. I used the round brush, swirl on the right line is fine when it reduced.  I need to be a single layer - you can see the curve of the top line that it thickens when design is reduced.  I had no entered fill. Driving me crazy - can not get the left line is a single layer, and I have to use it in a real small - so there must be a single thickness of the lines.  Someone help me?

    It is perhaps the issue of blob with calligraphy brushes.

    What you can try is to apply the effect zigzag with a size of 0

    Then set "curves by segment" (or whatever it's called) until the blob has disappeared (can be a high value)

  • Question about PDF files with linked images (not embedded) between the player and Illustrator

    What I will meet situations when I get a PDF file to client that must be changed. When they load in Acrobat Reader, it works fine. However if I load in Illustrator it asks me to point to the linked file. The question is how Acrobat Reader to open a PDF file and display a linked file when it is not incorporated? Why Illustrator cannot do the same?

    It is more of a technical issue, but any information would be helpful.  Thank you.

    For the associated images, your PDF file contains a thumbnail image as well as the reference or the address of the actual image. Player will show this vignette. Now, you want to change the PDF in Illustrator, he wants to allow you to work on the actual image. That's why it asks you to point to the linked file.

  • Question to hop in the Time Machine - Illustrator 10.

    Good guys, here's my problem.  I have a mac with Photoshop elements.  I design t-shirts for my local gym.  They just sign a contract with a small MOM and pop screen hosting. As a result, they have all saved as an Illustrator EPS, version 10 file or several.  She couldn't use my photoshop eps files.

    She is my questions.

    1. If I buy a 'new' Illustrator 10 from Amazon it will install on my mac 10.5 version or my computer is too new for this program?

    2. If it settles, can I open the PSD in Photoshop elements files in illustrator 10 and save as illustrator EPS files?

    I don't know anything about Illustrator, but I'll dive in as soon as I get it.  I really just need to open the PSD and convert it using Illustrator 10.  They need the vector files.  I just need these questions answered before you buy the program.  Thank you

    function() {return A.apply (null, [this] .concat ($A (arguments)))}

    Good guys, here's my problem.

    Well, Jimi. Here are your answers...

    function() {return A.apply (null, [this] .concat ($A (arguments)))}

    I have a mac with Photoshop elements.  I design t-shirts for my local gym.

    If you're talking about the design of T-Shirts involving multiple colors, you really should be using a program (whether raster or vector) able to print color separations. You can do with what you use, but you will need to work in black and white only.

    function() {return A.apply (null, [this] .concat ($A (arguments)))}

    They just sign a contract with a small MOM and pop screen hosting.

    Basic questions to ask at the shop of the screen:

    • What do you use for your "film positive" with which you expose your screens? (Ex: impressions laser on vellum translucent or clear acetate; litho real films shot on a device of original thought... process)
    • Can you maintain screens tint or halftone; or are you limited to the art of the line?
    • If you can print the tintscreens or the halftone, what is the ruling of maximum line you can hold?

    function() {return A.apply (null, [this] .concat ($A (arguments)))}

    As a result, they have all saved as an Illustrator EPS, version 10 file or several.

    Why? Assuming that they are printing their originals, they should be able to print from a PDF of the color separation.

    function() {return A.apply (null, [this] .concat ($A (arguments)))}

    She couldn't use my photoshop eps files.

    EPS is encapsulated PostScript. It must be a PostScript to EPS printer print correctly. PDF can be printed both PostScript and non-PostScript devices, frequent at MOM & filter anti-pop stores.

    function() {return A.apply (null, [this] .concat ($A (arguments)))}

    1. If I buy a 'new' Illustrator 10 from Amazon it will install on my mac 10.5 version or my computer is too new for this program?

    You don't need the old version. Current version can back - record formats inherited version. It is usually false economy to go around buying obsolete software.

    function() {return A.apply (null, [this] .concat ($A (arguments)))}

    2. If it settles, can I open the PSD in Photoshop elements files in illustrator 10 and save as illustrator EPS files?

    You can open an EPS with Illustrator file (pretty well regardless of what program exported EPS). But that doesn't automatically make the needs of the shop of the screen. Forget the EPS. It is the nature of the content that matters.

    EPS is a metadata format. Think it's just a "warpper" or a "black box" that can hold different types of data objects which are understood by a PostScript device.

    For example: assume that your work is an RGB of halftone image you built in Photoshop and then exported in EPS file. Open the EPS in Illustrator and then give to the shop of the screen is not accomplish anything. After opening in Illustrator, you then just a native Illustrator file that contains a RGB raster image. How would he a difference whatsoever, as to whether the screen shop can print it?

    function() {return A.apply (null, [this] .concat ($A (arguments)))}

    I don't know anything about Illustrator, but I'll dive in as soon as I get it.

    Modern.

    function() {return A.apply (null, [this] .concat ($A (arguments)))}

    I really just need to open the PSD and convert it using Illustrator 10.

    No, you haven't. See above.

    function() {return A.apply (null, [this] .concat ($A (arguments)))}

    They need the vector files.

    Big misconceptions:

    • Simply open a file (regardless of format) in Illustrator is not magically that he "vector".
    • Being fully vector is not magically, ensure that it the limitations of repro of MOM & filter anti-pop stores.
    • Most of the MOM & pop screenshots are not really limited to work with vector illustrations; they just think they are.

    Screen mom & pop stores very often say 'We need vector illustrations' when in fact what they really mean is "We need line art."

    It's really very simple:

    Denominator common for shops to screen mom & pop requirements is as follows: a single image of art of black line for each color used in the design. That's all. They are going to take a copy of this solid black image, printed on a transparent or translucent medium at least and it can block light that will expose a screen. They do it separately for each ink (color) will be printed on the shirt.

    Line drawing means "without tone." In other words, nothing which prints as a screen of dots as a screen tint or a semitone. In other words, no detail too small to be taken in charge by the mesh of the physical screen.

    Line drawing can be created with both raster and vector programs. You can 'paint' a raster image that will print as art of the black solid line in Photoshop just as easily as you can 'draw' traced that will print as black line art continues in Illustrator.

    No matter whether you are creating the linework in Photoshop or Illustrator (or more any other mainstream graphics program), you can save it as a PDF ready to print. This PDF can be opened and printed by the shop of MOM & pop screen using nothing more than the free software Adobe Reader.

    But the content of this PDF (e.g.: the art of the black line continues; a page by ink) is up to you to create properly. This requires only to understand the fundamentals of color separation and the creation of your work accordingly.

  • do you need a stack of drawing for the different brush styles?

    do you need a carpet of design for different styles of brush stroke?

    Ok. If you want a stroke with a profile width?

    You can get this by using one of the following 3 ways:

    calligraphy brushes when you have a Tablet

    art forms (with a properly prepared art brush)

    width profiles

    width profiles can not be combined with calligraphy brushes. I guess that's your problem. You must define a basic stroke in order to apply a width profile. But then you must use the pencil, not the tool Brush tool.

  • What is the difference between the brush and the BLOB brush and I can't change between the two in hindsight?

    I've been using illustrator to create a model complex of medieval sources, its irregular so I had to get physically using my Tablet rather than forms. However, I just realized that one section, I drew with the Brush tool to paint instead of the form of the task I had used. I don't know if I used the right tool at first, but now the sections don't fit on the overall picture even if they have the same size of pt etc. Can I change something how they were drawn quickly, or I have to redraw the object? Sorry for my naiveity that I am just learning.

    The blob brush draws stokes immediately deployed in forms.

    The Brush tool draws paths that have a stroke applied. So you can easily change the path, and you can change all the options (including the option to apply a totally different brush) brush.

    You can expand easily just the brush stroke. Select all the paths that you have drawn with a Brush tool and use the object > expand apperance. Based on the other blob brush settings, you may also use pathfinder functions to combine all forms.

  • Quality of the vectors in Illustrator CS6

    I've recently upgraded to CS6 and have a problem of vectors looking like they are pixelated. I don't know what it is. I work in a print document CMYK with high pixelation on (300 dpi) and aligned to the pixel grid is not lit. I uploaded three photos to illustrate what I'm talking about. The photos are all of the same O at 200%. The first screenshot is in Illustrator CS5. The second is what I see with the same shape in Illustrator CS6. In addition, so we are clear, I have not seen pixelated as the third screenshot shows the view with preview pixelated on. When I zoom back everything just fine together, makes it difficult to see the whole of creation - which, as you can imagine is pretty frustrating. I keep thinking there must be something with the display settings - but nothing I touch seems to make no difference. I really liked to switch to the CS6, but this question is really making me think otherwise. Help please?

  • Lightroom4, the adjustment brush does not work in the center of the screen

    When I use an adjustment brush, it does not work when I move the cursor toward the center of the screen, in the rest of the image, and when I move or zoom the image that will work, if I can use the adjustment brush anywhere in the image, as long as it is not in the center of the screen.

    I had exactly the same question, not only with the adjustment brush, but overall the application (for example, in the library grid view, I could not select all photos in a part of the center of the screen).

    I left and restarted the app and that seems to fix the problem.
