Great tutorial — thanks for sharing. Time to dress up my boring old signature … lacking a tablet I’ll probably go the “write and scan” route, but I think that’ll work pretty well.
Thanks for this, never really thought about putting a sig. digitally but good to know.
You don’t have to selet the line with the select tool to use the width tool on it. Just keep going with the width tool on whatever line you want. Saves a lot of time.
How would you modify this tutorial for CS4? I wish I could up-grade.
