Illustrations using symbols

Create dramatic illustrations in seconds

 

Replace symbols at any point in the creative process

The symbols can also be replaced at any point with another symbol by using the replace symbol command (also the symbols can be replaced by scripting.. creating multiple variant copies of the same Illustrator document, possibly for varying web designs in different countries or for similar web styled diagrams using different text or swf files.

The symbols can be expanded to basic paths. So apply the plugin to create a frame of blocks or letters and then expand the symbols using the expand symbol command and then color the paths or apply transparency and more

Tool options for symbol tools

Each tool comes with a huge selection of options. To display the options for each plugin icon, press enter or double click the plugin icon, this will display a dialog with the options for this particular pluginillustrator plugins symbols toolbox

 

Export symbols

Also the tool is great for exporting to other applications or saving in SWF flash format. The symbols exported are re-used so if you have a frame of repeat symbols, the symbol location information and the symbol itself is saved, so having 1000 symbols as a dynamic frame is little different from a basic 10 symbol frame (the size is greater of course but not as great as having the symbols as paths)

 

Interactive

The symbols plug-in for Illustrator is hi-impact and interactive.
