Hi Jawzliet
I went to Wacom.com and downloaded the latest driver for it, restarted my computer and opened Illustrator. The pen now has all of the capabilites active.

hi, i am planning of buying a tablet but not sure what to get… mainly use photoshop and illustrator for it… not so much high-end but just ease of use.

I just got a Wacom Pen and touch. I am having issues with my Wacom. When I select a brush or create a new one just as you have in your tutorial the option of pressure in the brush menu is not selected. It comes out as grey and I can’t select it. Is there any way I can fix this?

Thank, just after I sent out the S.O.S. I found your artcile,
and yes I under stand how it works. I know Wacom
realy had photo shop in mind, but it would be cool to
have it set up more vector art : )
Is there a trick to set the pen tool so I could tuch the
pad and not make a large bloob?? Thanks for
your help. John

Hi Rype
First of all Happy belated Thanksgiving! Sheesh, it’s been a while since
I’ve posted. Guess it’s that time of year…heh-heh. Anyways, I would like to share a website with the members. It’s called ‘Cartoon Snap.com’
I’m a big fan of the Spongebob cartoon series. Cartoon Snap is hosted by Sherm Cohen, who is a storyboard artist for the Spongebob
cartoon. He generously shares his vast knowledge of inking in several video tutorials, all for free! I found his brush settings to be excellent! I’ve gotten great results with his settings. Give his site a visit, I promise you won’t be sorry!

Thanks so much for this tutorial! It’s really helpful.

I’ve used my pen tablet for several months now, but I always thought it was pretty useless in Illustrator. You just showed the opposite!
