Based on what you wrote, and assuming that the graphics you have to edit are not Vectors, I would say Photoshop is the tool for you. You are describing editing pixels, and Photoshop would likely be more appropriate than Illustrator for these tasks.
If budget is a concern, you can also try: PaintShopPro $79 US http://www.corel.com/PaintShopPro Free evaluation version available Win only the Gimp **FREE** http://www.gimp.org Win, Mac, Linux, Unix, etc.. -Michael -----Original Message----- From: Cris Reeser [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 26, 2006 2:58 PM To: [email protected] Subject: OT: Which should we purchase, PhotoShop or Illustrator Does anyone in the group have experience with either of these tools? My writing group is planning to buy either PhotoShop or Illustrator. We need a tool to edit graphics that have been added to PowerPoint or MSWord files. We get PowerPoint slides to edit and clean up for delivery. In places, artwork has been pasted into the slide, but contains white boxes that cover bits of the drawing or text. This method doesn't work in grayscale because the hidden lines or text show up again. We need a tool that lets us remove text in the graphics where we do not have the source file. Are either of these the right tool for this? Which tool would you recommend?
