Written by David Creamer & Shangara Singh

Exam numbers: 9A0-057 and 9A0-072

The Adobe Illustrator CS3 ACE Exam Aid streamlines the task of studying for the corresponding Adobe Certified Expert (ACE) certification. It does this by testing your existing knowledge of Illustrator CS3 and by helping you to obtain the necessary knowledge required to pass the official exam.

The exam aid is divided into two modes: Study and Practice. In Study mode, you have access to correct answers, supplement answers, and hyperlinked paths to corresponding pages in the Illustrator help documentation. In Practice mode, you can simulate a test environment and sit unlimited mock tests based on the question pool.

A separate section containing questions that cover only the new features is included. You may use it independently from the certification section to study for the recertification exam.
