[thelist] illustrator paths and points

[A. Erickson]

I'm working on a logo and having the usual bitch of a time with the paths
and points tool. One of my biggest problems is that I want things to look
mathematically correct and I just can't get it.

Fer instance... when I'm making a curved line, it doesn't always curve in
the smoothest manner because I'm doing it by hand and sometimes I get it
right and other times I don't. God forbid I should want to create another
curve that matches it. Is there some tool that I'm missing? What do you all
work with when you're making paths?

thanks in advance for any advice!
