About this title

Synopsis

Using a heavily illustrated, step-by-step style, Watt aims to ease designers into a more analytical, programming approach to graphics without losing the appeal of form and design. The change in mindset required of graphic designers in exploiting "visual components" is explained clearly and practically. While presenting real-world examples of design tasks (such as creating a logo, navigation bar, or a full Web page), Watt embeds sidebars, notes, and tips to convey the strict programming portion of the process. Thus making it easier for the reader to balance the formality of the SVG code with the functionality of the design. The book assumes no prior knowledge of SVG and provides the foundational information for the reader to grasp the key concepts.In addition, it contains source code for all of the SVG images and animations created in the book. This educates the readers in how SVG works and lays a foundation for their own experiments. It provides a practical "how to" introduction to SVG for the large number of graphic designers who want to explore the exciting capabilities of Scalable Vector Graphics. It also provides foundational concepts and techniques to further develop SVG design skills.

About the Author

Andrew Watt is an independent Web consultant, and principal of XMML.com, specializing in XML technologies as well as more traditional Web technologies such as HTML/XHTML, Java and Lotus Domino. Andrew wrote his first programs around 1984, in 6502 Assembler and BBC Basic. In 1994 he was exposed to the power of the World Wide Web. In 1996 he was excited by the power of Lotus Domino and more recently has focussed on XML-based technologies. SVG is a key interest in that area. His work with SVG has included the development of SVGSpider.com - the world's "first" all-SVG web site.

Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
