Illustration documents
Illustration documents are general-purpose documents for all types of
illustrations and graphics. You can specify a custom document size,
and the document can have multiple pages (called sheets), with
multiple layers on each sheet.
When the active document is an Illustration, the icons at the bottom
of the window represent the documents sheets. You can click an
icon to move to that sheet.
Publication documents
Publication documents are designed for publications printed with
two-sided (facing) pages, although you can also create a Publication
that has pages with single sides. You can use master pages to hold
items that you want to appear throughout the publication. You can
also use multiple layers on each page.
When the active document is a Publication, you can use page icons at
the bottom of the window to move among the documents pages.
Presentation and Animation documents
Presentation documents are designed for on-screen slide show pre-
sentations. Animation documents are designed for creating animation
files.
In Presentation documents, you can use multiple layers and a master
slide to hold background elements. You can use more than a dozen
transition effects, including wipe and dissolve, during slide show
playback.
When the active document is a Presentation, you can use slide icons
at the bottom of the window to easily move among the slides.
An Animation document is designed for creating and editing web
(GIF) animation files. An animation is composed of multiple frames,
which are equivalent to the image frames of film-based animations.
You can use onion-skinning in an Animation document. When you
select onion-skinning, frames adjacent to the current frame appear in
the background. This is helpful for setting up object movement in an
animation.
