Setting Slices Preferences
Illustrator allows you to slice a document into smaller pieces. You might want to slice an
image to create interactive links; however, the best reason is speed. You gain speed by
compressing individual slices to reduce the image size. In Slices preferences, you can set
options to show a slice number on the screen for easier management and select a line color
for slices. You can select a predefined color or a custom one that you can select or specify
in the Color dialog box.
