i/us -- The September 97 Salon Page 8


Let’s create an image to add to our button. I’ve used a Zapf Dingbat (type a 2 and then format it Zapf Dingbat) ink pen image, and rotated it -60°. Create two duplicates, moving one up and left (purple), and one down and right (red).

Bring the original (yellow) to the top and place a Copy (Ctrl-C) of it in the Clipboard. Select the yellow and purple pens and Arrange--Combine Shapes, Subtract Shapes. Paste a copy directly on top (Shift Ctrl V) and repeat the process on the red pen. Hit Shift Ctrl V to place another copy directly on top. This produces a thin highlight and shadow edge.
