Must-have graphics -- prepare graphics files, work with image layers, and create a clipping path
Get down to business -- create manuals and annual reports with tables, footnotes, and indexes
Pretty in print -- calibrate color and prepare your document for printing
Present your project -- export your work to the Web or make it an interactive presentation with animation and sound
