Is it a monopoly if it's the only one people bother to torrent?

Well, if they succeed, then good. I rather quite liked Freehand. I've learnt to make peace with Illustrator, though.
- I'll tell you what I hate, though: Lotus-fucking-Notes for OS X. What a fucking abortion of an email client.Continuity

The only thing I miss from Freehand was the anti-alias modes that made vectors look much cleaner than Illustrator... what were some features that you miss from Freehand that Illustrator doesn't do? I for one don't miss running Rosetta to use it...
- I found - at the time, anyway - FH just ran infinitely faster than AI did, even back in the day.Continuity

didn't FH support multiple pages as well?
- so does Illustratormonospaced
- but at the time it didn't... it required some fancy add-onprophetone
- Freehand did it about 10 years ago thoughanimatedgif

in freehand you could place multiple files, win!

I would be happy if AI would just adopt FH features like multiple pages that doesn't suck, or path drawing without having to change the tools every friggin time I want to drag a handle, or convert smooth points to sharp ones without losing handles, and 3 kinds of points, or A FUCKING PATH PREVIEW, how difficult is that to implement? But Adobe thinks it makes no sense to how your path is going to look before you guess and have to redo the whole thing because pros have time for stuff like that, so they can spend more hours on the job and charge more

I found it soooo much better to create a gradient in FreeHand, none of this gradient swatch stuff, chose your colors and adjust on the fly....sweet!
