Illustrator is used to make vector images. The vector images are often used for logos of companies, clip arts, blueprints, and printing. This is due to vector images being able to be enlarged without losing quality or becoming pixelated.
In our first day of using illustrator we used the program to make a key chain.
We learned that if we wanted something cut out on the printer we had
to make a red line 0.001 inches in width. This would tell the printer that it should
be cut out. Then if we wanted something engraved we needed to leave it black
and for text create outlines.
Next we had to save it as a certain file for the printer to be able to read it.
We saved it as a VSL 3.5 File and then opened it in the printer.

Finally we are ready to print out keychain.
