Leeds, UK – October 26, 2012 — Visual 2000 UK Limited will hold a series of workshops to highlight the capabilities and benefits of its new Adobe® Illustrator® Plug-In for Visual PLM.net®. To be held on November 6 in London and November 8 in Leeds, the sessions will give attendees a hands-on look at how fashion and technical designers can use a variety of new menu options and tools provided by the plugin to launch new concepts and styles right from the Illustrator software. Both morning and afternoon sessions are available for both locations and will be scheduled in order of request. Companies and individuals interested in attending are advised to register in advance by phoning Tony Walker, Visual 2000 European Sales Director at

+44 (0) 7970 706552.

The new plug-in enables designers to automatically contribute early-stage product information to PLM as they routinely use Illustrator to develop designs, colours, storyboards, and other components. The information initiated in Illustrator becomes immediately available for further downstream development in Visual PLM.net. This advanced level of integration streamlines design and product development workflow and reduces PLM implementation time requirements.
