Using brush strokes in FreeHand 10 to create intricate patterns
Brush strokes are patterned strokes based on an object that you create from a graphic or text and save in the Library panel as a symbol. By creating a brush stroke from a symbol, you save drawing time, eliminate excessive redraw time, and reduce file size, which is ideal for graphics that will appear on a Web page.
This article is a hands-on tutorial that demonstrates how to create a symbol, use it to make a brush stroke, and draw an object using a brush stroke.
For details about symbols, see FreeHand Help or the Using FreeHand manual.
