-Summary-
As the face value of scientific research papers, the picture is an important basis for determining the grade of the article. Whether it is a graduation thesis for a scientific researcher, or a scientific researcher submitting an SCI paper, beautiful pictures will not only reflect our scientific research level, but also affect the overall quality of the article.
It turns out that posting paper also needs to "fight for appearance"!
Through the study of the previous article (click to view the content of the previous article), I believe you have mastered the basic skills of AI image editing. In this article, Xiaolu will share from two aspects: text beautification and picture layout.
< strong >Text beautification
In the field of life sciences, the scientific names of certain organisms or the names of enzymes usually need to be expressed in italics. Careful children's shoes may find such a problem, there is no tool to tilt the font on the AI interface.
The following Xiaolu provides two methods for everyone, focus on the key points!
Method 1
In fact, it is italic in the font bar mode. After selecting the target text, find the "Character" panel in the right toolbar of the overall interface. After selecting the desired font, select "Italic" in the drop-down menu (here the target text is Escherichia coli as an example), Figure 1
Figure 1
Method 2
Step 1: Select the target text-right click-transform- Tilt, as shown in Figure 2
Figure 2
Step 2: Set the tilt angle - preview the effect - click to confirm, as shown in Figure 3

Next is the most critical content, we will use a magical tool-alignment, it is our A good helper in scientific research drawing. In the past, many people may often rely on manual or visual methods to judge whether the pictures are aligned, but this kind of operation is very irregular!
In fact, the alignment tool in AI is very simple and easy to use. There are many different alignment methods in the alignment bar (horizontal, centered, vertical, etc.). We only need to select the target object and align it according to the requirements.
Method steps
Step 1: Organize The picture that needs to be typeset, Figure 4
Figure 4
Step 2: Create a new artboard - select the size of the artboard (here takes the general size as an example) - name the picture - color Select RGB format -300ppi, as shown in Figure 5
Figure 5
Step 3: Import all pictures, select all objects, press the shift key to scale down, and expand in order Arrangement (if the size of the artboard needs to be adjusted, you can select the artboard tool in the left menu bar, drag the edge of the artboard to adjust to an appropriate size or directly set the artboard size in the right toolbar), as shown in Figure 6, Figure 6 Seven

Figure 7
Step 4: Embed each picture (to prevent loss of pictures), Figure 8
Figure 8
Step 5: Select the picture, select vertical center alignment in the alignment tool panel, as shown in Figure 9< /span>
Figure 9
Effect: Figure 10
Figure 10
Step 6: Align the picture horizontally, as shown in Figure 11
Figure 11
Effect:Figure 12
Figure 12
Step 7: Add serial number to the picture, adjust font type and size, as shown in Figure 13
Figure 13
Step 8: Press the Alt key, drag and drop in turn, and align the serial numbers, as shown in Figure 10 Four
Figure 14
Step 9: Click the file menu in the upper left corner of the interface - export - export to png format, select the resolution, click After confirming, the typesetting picture will be saved, Figure 15

< strong >Summary
Through the study of two articles (basic and advanced), I believe you have mastered how to use AI to color scientific research pictures, adjust pictures or Font style, size, position, and finally tips for typography.
As the saying goes, "Great ideas and outstanding scientific research results need to be expressed and disseminated through beautiful means." AI-an artifact of scientific research drawing, whether it is a signal transduction pathway diagram, a pattern diagram, a raw diagram processed by R or other software, or a diagram that needs to be typeset later, can be done in minutes with AI!
In this article, the series of operations "creating a drawing board-importing pictures-picture processing-alignment operation-exporting pictures" basically covers the main operation steps of AI for scientific research drawing. Of course, if you want to use AI to make eye-catching pictures, you still need to read more high-scoring literature and practice more.
For scientific research drawing, it is enough to master the most basic tools and methods in AI, so Xiaolu here hopes that through the study of two articles, you can really learn to use AI to process various scientific research pictures, and become your scientific research A good helper on the road.

Finally, Xiaolu summarized some Shortcut keys for commonly used AI tools. Hurry up and like it and save it~
1. Text tool (Shift+T), you can edit text
2. Artboard tool (Shift+O), which can be used to adjust the size of the artboard
3. The eyedropper tool (Shift+I), which can be used to copy the color, and then adjust the color matching of the picture
4. Selection tool (Shift+V), which can be used to select or edit the target
5. Save image as...(Ctrl+Shift+S)
