KEY TERMS FreeHand Term » Illustrator Term This intricate foliage was created using the symbolism tools in Illustrator. The Color panel Graphic Hose Tool » Symbol Sprayer The symbolism tools let you create and modify sets of symbol instances. You create a symbol set using the Symbol Sprayer tool. You can then use the other symbolism tools to change the density, color, location, size, rotation, transparency, and style of the instances in the set. You are not limited to a particular set of symbols; you can create and use as many as you want. All the symbols you create are available in the Symbols panel. Output Area Tool » Crop Area tool By default, Illustrator crops artwork to the boundaries of the artboard. However, using the Crop Area tool, you can interactively define crop areas for print or export to other formats (video or web, for example). The option you choose sets the position of crop marks, rulers, and video- and title-safe areas on your document and defines the boundaries of the artwork to be printed or exported. These boundaries are represented by a dashed line in the preview area of the Print dialog box. Eraser » Eraser tool Quickly remove areas of artwork as easily as you erase pixels in Photoshop by stroking with your mouse or stylus over any shape or set of shapes. New paths will automatically be created along the edges of your erased stroke with points laid down economically, but still preserving the smoothness of your erasure. Styles » Graphic styles A graphic style is a set of reusable appearance attributes. Graphic styles allow you to quickly change the look of an object. For example, you can change its fill and stroke color, alter its transparency, and apply effects in one step. All the changes you apply with graphic styles are completely reversible. Mixer » Color panel You use the Color panel to apply color to an object's fill and stroke, and also to edit and mix colors. The Color panel can display color values using different color models. By default, only the most commonly used options are visible in the Color panel. To display the panel, choose Window > Color. To change the color model, choose Grayscale, RGB, HSB, CMYK, or Web Safe RGB from the panel menu.  FreeHand to Illustrator Migration Guide
