Conventions Used in This Book

As I mentioned, this book was written by a Mac user. But that doesn't mean that PC users should be confused, because most menu commands in Photoshop are identical. Menu commands discussed in this book are separated by the → symbol; for instance, Image → Adjustments → Curves means choose the Image menu in Photoshop, then click on Adjustments, and then Curves.
