Review:

Many corporations look for Adobe Certified Experts when they're searching for the right artists to produce their publications and ads. This book takes you through the practice exams that will ultimately prepare you for the certification exam in Photoshop 5.

The authors start off with information on how and where to take the test. You begin your lessons with a review of general Photoshop and digital-graphics terms and concepts, such as raster, vector, and path. Next you study the Photoshop work area and the History palette. Subsequent chapters teach you about scanning, image modes, selections, paths, painting, editing and retouching, layers, type, filters, channels, masks, color correction, file formats, prepress production, Web and video production, color management, and automating Photoshop. The writing is direct, informative, and factual, so you get a clear idea of what you need to know to pass the test.

To get the most out of the lessons in the book, it helps to have at least an intermediate-level understanding of Photoshop. The companion CD-ROM has files for some of the exam's sections, as well as review questions and answers for each chapter to help you monitor your progress. --Kathleen Caster
