The Complete Technical Illustrator eBook

Greg Maxson just announced that his book The Complete Technical Illustrator [previously] is now available for purchase as a PDF eBook:

Originally published internationally by McGraw-Hill, this 500-page full-color text is a comprehensive look at vector-based technical illustration.

  1. Hello Everyone,

    Yes, there were issues with the download links for some buyers. I apologize for any problems.

    I’ve been in close contact with Kagi, and to my knowledge these issues have been resolved.

    If anyone experiences any further problems, please send Kagi a trouble report and send an e-mail to me directly at gregdraws@gmail.com. I will respond promptly.

    Thanks for your patience,

    Also interested in axonhelper – for determining views. I’m just getting started with this. Anyone know of a place with scaling and rotation data for different views? Or ellipse exposures?

    I bought this book in hard cover back in 2004. I wish that the book (which costed a fortune) would’ve included the PDF edition as well.
