Landscape Illustrator has been well received in the landscape industry for a number of years for our pioneering efforts in clipart creation and rendering techniques, We are confident that we have the best graphic symbols and textures available in the industry and recommend you visit our Download section to receive a 30-day trial of LSI 2005.
When we developed Landscape Illustrator eight years ago our two main objectives were "Ease of Use" and a "High Use of Color". Over the years we have refined those principles by:

     A) Constantly upgrading the help tutorials from simple text based help files in the beginning to a full-featured Tutorial, Lesson files, Online Newsletter chapters and our new for 2005 Video Help Tutorial. This tutorial will guide you through the learning curve enabling you to become a productive user of the Landscape Illustrator software in the shortest time possible.
     B) Progressively adding new clipart items to the libraries and engineering the popular Pastel Clipart Symbols and Textures that have been championed and accepted by the existing LSI user community as the closest look to producing a hand rendered design. Many of our competitors have scrambled in an effort to offer pastel clipart items to their libraries. We find that our images are superior in colour, shape, style and overall usability.

Cad Style: Landscape Illustrator contains an extensive list of paver hatches, texture fills and plant/shrub/tree symbols, which result in giving the appearance of a cad design. There is also the ability to create your own plant symbols and landscape accessories. These items can be placed into the clipart library or imbedded in Loaded Images for instant retrieval.
