Calligraphy with Photoshop by George Thomson
Calligraphers rather belatedly have begun to realize the potential of the computer as a tool that extends their creative talents into territory that was unimaginable not many years ago. Many have been put off by the apparent complexity of graphics software. This book aims to break down these barriers by providing clear step-by-step, easy to follow instructions throughout, to help the calligrapher to understand the software and tap the potential of Photoshop as a valuable addition to his or her creative repertoire. Calligraphy with Photoshop begins with an outline of all the tools related to digital calligraphy and an overview of basic calligraphic method. A thorough, illustrated discussion of the entire process follows, from starting a new project to printing out a completed one, with some examples for reference. Both the novice and expert calligrapher will find this book of value. It assumes only that the reader has a basic knowledge of how to use a computer.
