If you want to jump-start a project


    Illustrator provides a variety of professionally-designed resources to help get your creative juices flowing:

    • Use templates to start typical design projects. Illustrator comes with templates for business documents (letterhead, business cards, envelopes, and so on), CD and DVD booklets, brochures, certificates, greeting cards, Web sites, and more. In addition, you can create new templates to meet your design and production needs. (See Creating new documents and Creating new templates.)
    • Use libraries of symbols, brushes, styles, and swatches to speed up the design process. For a catalog of the libraries, choose Help > Welcome Screen, and click Cool Extras.
