You probably all know the feeling that sometimes a vector design you have made just needs that certain je ne sais quoi like a drop shadow to finish things off, but that the result won't be vector. So you try a workaround like duplicating the result and filling it with black or grey and placing it offset behind the original.
Sometimes that works fine, but at other times it doesn't do the trick, so you apply a linear transparency to the duplicate, which looks better, but you never know with transparency how the result will print, so what do you do?
Well, this trick gives you a vector result which looks cool too, so have a go at this and see what you think.
Bob.
