Manufacturer description

Expression Design is a professional illustration and graphic design tool that lets you build compelling elements for both Web and desktop application user interfaces. Expand your portfolio and collaborate with others who are defining the next generation of software applications. Expression Design is the perfect companion to Expression Blend, letting you quickly build sophisticated vector assets. Then seamlessly transfer - by way of XAML - your graphics to your Expression Blend projects. Unleash your creativity with innovative vector drawing tools and non-destructive effects that you can apply to either vector or imported bitmapped images. Apply both hard-edged and organic strokes while maintaining the flexibility of vector paths. Expression Design has been built from the ground up for designers by designers. Don't let your design degenerate when it's handed off to someone else. Now, you can be confident that the look-and-feel-such as a corporate identity or user interface elements-will be maintained all the way to the final product. Build your assets in Expression Design, export them as XAML, and give them life with Expression Blend's interactive features. The Beta 2 release of Microsoft Expression Design supports the Microsoft Expression Blend Release Candidate and has the enhanced XAML Export with live preview feature.
