so as i sit here.. i really want to blog… yet i have yet to figure out what i want to blog about. i just finished filling out a job application and emailed it along. my computer has been acting really funky lately, and so instead of just opening up the .pdf file in acrobat professional and filling out the form… i had to do this really round-about way of getting it done on the computer. (ahh.. life without a fax machine… sometimes good.. sometimes not as good) so get this (all you graphic design nerds may appreciate this) … i take the .pdf file and open each page in adobe illustrator. the default font is not found… so i end up reformatting one of the pages… the other pages weren’t so bad. and then i create another layer and just type in all the ‘stuff.’ (if you know illustrator.. you know all the text lines are going to be their own ‘box’) and that goes pretty well. and me…. being the perfectionist that i am… am constantly zooming in to make sure that the words are an equal distance from the underline.. and the other text.. etc. signatures? that’s easy. i have my wacom tablet so i can write my signature in photoshop and then drag it into illustrator. then comes the fun of illustrator only being able to export a single page .pdf. so i save each page as an .eps… and then place each page into an indesign document and then export as a .pdf. *grin* oh how i <3 the adobe suite.
and in other news… michele got a digital camera… you should have seen her trying it out… she was lying on the floor talking to her cats… while taking pictures and video of them. i wish i had video of that
i’ll make sure to steal the camera and post some video and pictures from her new toy for all to enjoy. (hey.. that rhymed *grin*)
ok. so that was fun. i’m gonna go to bed and get this hot laptop away from myself…. it’s … well… too… hot.
