PatternPrint is a pattern manipulation plugin for Illustrator CS2 CS1 10.
The plugin manipulates the pattern swatch designs in 100s of different ways / scaling / rotation / color manipulation and more to create dynamic texture / pattern designs. The swatches can also be layered creating a graphic style for further use in Illustrator (or symbol) - the fills appear in the 'appearance' palette / blending modes and opacity etc can be modified and combined to create a near infinite range of superb to surreal to the really unusual pattern design. The plugin set comes with a plugin for CS1 10 and also a plugin for use in CS2. The plugin set also comes supplied with a large number /100s of patterrn swatches for royalty-free use in the plugin.
A demo is available on the graphicxtras.com site via the patternPrint plugin page.
