Scientific Figure Preparation in Adobe Illustrator and Fiji - Part 3: Layout

In this section, we arrange our multichannel image data into a montage figure panel using the Align and Transform tools in Adobe Illustrator. We set and lock guides on our page, resize our images, and arrange them nicely using Align to Key Object and Distribute Spacing. I also discuss the differences between raster graphics (our microscopy image data) and vector graphics (the mathematically defined space of our Illustrator file).

Super good lessons! These six lessons give me the confidence to make beautiful figures for scientific publications. And you are also considering color blindness readers. What a warm heart!

Thank you for the super nice tutorial. My question is, after cropping in image J (or even photoshop), the resolution of images drops to 72 or 96 dpi. But most journals want at least 300 dpi. Can you please give suggestion about this?
