Hi there,

 

I do some basic web design (more of a print designer) and usually I design my flat design in illustrator, slice it up and import the images into Dreamweaver in a table format. Usually I leave the cell in the middle of the table free for text. However, I am doing a design, laid out in Illustrator and the background is not a solid colour so I just want to convert the whole file straight into a format that will recognise the text as html in Dreamweaver.

 

Can I do this?

 

Can anyone point me in the direction of some tutorials or a good book?

 

I have searched loads and I can't seem to find anything of great help!

 

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me ... even just a little!

 

I'm afraid you'll have to add the text manually after exporting the image.

Hi there and thanks for your reply ... I've found some stuff out about saving slices as html text/images etc, but I don't know how to insert a html slice into dreamweaver? In Illustrator I can make a slice, specify it as html text, save it for web and then ... I can't find it??????

You can't find the location where you saved the files? Tried searching for the filename?
