Finished Chapters and Pop Quizes

In Chapter 5 I learned how to import different graphics form different adobe products like photoshop and even indesign itself. Also learned how to fit objects proportionally to the frame. Also how to change a layer graphic when it is already placed in indesign.

Projects Mighty and Napoleon

These two devices are very cool. They can be used by an artist or an architect or even just a teacher showing someone what is important on what page. My english teachers class revolves around the iPads to it would be nice for him to have a more advanced pen so he could transfer items from his iPad to one of ours just by using the pen. An artist could use the napoleon ruler to create straight lines and even arches for any project they are working on. Adobe Creative Cloud designed this mighty pen and napoleon ruler.
