Here is Lab 3. It is my rendition of a Mollweide Graticule. A Mollweide projection is an equal area projection which makes it useful for comparing populations over areas.
I really enjoyed making this map, except for the problems I encountered with the software. I have heard that Adobe software is powerful, but that the learning curve is steep. I have to agree. I still have not figured out the trim tool, but I did figure out how to use the "Divide below" option, (Object/Path/Divide objects below) in order to trim off my parallels.
