Does Illustrator give special effects like photoshop?

does Illustrator give the options like drop shadows, embossing, etc... like photoshop does

[Jacob_Bugge@adobeforums.com]

lark,

Drop shadows: Filter>Stylize>Drop shadows,
Emboss: Filter>Sketch>Stamp or something else which may suit you.

So you may go on a Filter tour (you may also find something useful in Effects).

cool, thanks! one more question...

I added a drop shadow to something a while back. I want to remove the shadow now but i am not seeing a way to do it. is it possible to remove a drop shadow?
(and i dont mean using undo)

[Timothy_Foolery®@adobeforums.com]

Yup, click on the object, then go to the "Appearance" pallet, click on "drop shadow" and drag it into the "rubbish bin".

and i dont mean using undo




Heh...

RTFM

Jens, should we not bid a Photoshopper welcome as Illustrator?

To RTFM is one thing, but to UNDERSTAND it is something quite different, and you may have to work with things for a while before really you get into it.

So lark, ask any time, but as you can see from the 3rd post you are more likely to get an answer from Timothy; he knows a lot more, and he is up hours before I am.
