Adobe Illustrator

OVERVIEW

Adobe Illustrator is a popular software application used by artists and graphic designers to create vector graphics. Adobe released the first version of Illustrator in 1987, and the application has gone through many iterations since then, establishing itself as a staple in graphic design.

It offers sophisticated digital drawing tools for creating vector-based illustrations, icons, typography, logos, and other artwork. Adobe Illustrator is one of the software applications included in Adobe Creative Cloud. It is popular for personal art and entertainment, as well as business branding and design. Adobe Illustrator is commonly used to create logos, promotional or branded content, icons, website graphics, digital artwork, and more. It is popular in the business world for graphic design projects related to marketing, advertising, and branding, as well as with artists who create digital artwork personally and professionally.

Graphic designers often prefer Adobe Illustrator over Adobe Photoshop and other photo editing software because it produces vector-based images as opposed to raster-based images.
