『まずはココ英語版Photoshop6ツールボックスをご覧ください。』

Your client, Angelina's, has a number of products featuring wholesome all-natural ingredients, including their most successful product-pasta sauce. They want to highlight this product and their product line with point-of-purchase cards which you will design. Shelf talkers are produced in large quantities, so they are printed using the lithographic process. While some projects are also produced with PDF and the Web as additional uses, this document will have only a print application.
