If you choose to work with the Illustrator file, the following tips will be useful.
-
Install the Prelude font.
-
Set your units to pixels. The UI components in this stencil kit are built to approximate the pixel dimensions of the UI components on the HP Touchpad. For the highest fidelity results, try to work with integer pixel positions and sizes.
-
Set your color space to RGB.
-
In your Layers panel, check the option for "Paste Remembers Layers". This will help you maintain a clear and consistent layer structure so you can select and lock objects more easily.
-
Make symbols for objects you will reuse often. This will make it easier to maintain design changes and keep the file size small.
