Adobe Di mensions does it for us, adding multiple lights and correctly mod eled surfaces. Last month we explored how Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator can be ·used together. This month we are delighted to display the new Adobe Dimensions package for the working artist. It is a significant new illustrator's tool. Most often it works like this: 1. Draw in your drawing pro gram.* 2. Import your drawing into Adobe Dimensions. 3. Perform the 3-D rendering routines on your import. 4.
