The updates to the Smart Guides are great. The appearance and behaviors are more unobtrusive and pop-ups will appear with alignment and measurement information. In the new CS4, the smart guides are more practical. I can see how some people might not like the extra space it takes up, but you can easily remove bar if you want.

It might just save you a few clicks, but over time that can amount to minutes or even hours. Placing the workspace switches on the Application Bar is a slight change, but it is a welcome one. I have workspaces set up for illustration projects, logo projects, web design projects and so on. I have always liked using different workspaces for different projects. You can also access Adobe Bridge from the application bar. With the application bar you can quickly jump to different workspace configurations depending on your needs. In the new CS4, there is an application bar. Now I can navigate the tabs of my open documents or even display the open documents in a nice arrangement of my choosing.
ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR CS4 MAC WINDOWS
Before, I would have many floating windows all over my screen. This new feature has drastically cleaned up my workspace. In the new CS4, you can display multiple documents in a tabbed view or orientate the documents side by side from the Arrange Documents window.

Tabbed Document Windows and Document Arrangement Panel Granted, you can drag the artwork from one board to another, but it would be easier if I could just number them differently. If I wanted to make the first artboard the third one, I can’t. The only problem I ran into with the multiple artboards (I just might be missing the solution), is that you can’t change the numbering on the artboards. It is easy to create new artboards with the Artboard tool, adjust the size and placement and quickly crop the artboards with the Control Panel. Being able to have these documents on one artboard is great. I usually need multiple documents for a project or illustration series. Having multiple artboards makes it much easier to work with multiple documents compared to previous versions of Illustrator. So I am happy with the Multiple Artboard replacement. I have to say that I rarely used the Crop tool. You can also print, save, and export these artboards independently or together. The artboards can overlap, appear side-by-side, and even stack on top of one another. Replacing the Crop Area tool, multiple artboards can create documents that contain up to 100 artboards of varying sizes. New Workspace Features Multiple Artboards The files sizes have ranged from 196 kb to 120 mb

What are the new functions? How do they work? Is it worth it to upgrade? I’ll answer these questions in my review of Illustrator CS4!

There are some great improvements in the CS4 version of Illustrator. To test out the functionality and new features of CS4, I worked on logos, illustrations, web designs and more. You can help by expanding it.I have been working with the new Illustrator CS4 everyday for the past week.
