Summary
  • "This sourcebook teaches the concepts and specific details required for using digital technology without being tied to any single software product. Students in the field of architecture, engineering, and landscape architecture, as well as working professionals coping with the transition from manual to digital production, will find detailed advice on: channels, paths, texture maps, and grids; bitmap and vector digital media; data storage and archiving; data compression; rasterizing vector content; file and folder naming conventions; image size, scale, and resolution; scanner, printer, and presentation systems; and fonts and printer systems."
  • "Clearly written and well organized, with more than four hundred illustrations and a full-color CD-ROM version featuring dozens of hyperlinks to useful resources, Computer Graphics for Architects, Engineers, and Environmental Designers is a must read for anyone seeking computer mastery."--Jacket.
