  1. Difference between Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop

  2. Illustrator vs Photoshop Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop are two of the most popular software programs used in the design industry. It might’ve confused you at least once which one of the two you should use when starting a new project. In this article, we address the key differences between the two. But before going further, let’s look at the two kinds of 2D graphics, namely Raster and Vector Graphics because these two software’s foundation is based on them.

  3. Vector Graphics Vector Graphics consist of points connected by lines and curves, similar to the “connect the dots” activities you may have done as a kid. Vector Graphics are not made up of pixels that make them independent of Image Resolution.  They’re used primarily for Print Media, where graphics with large dimensions are required. The most commonly used file type is SVG or Scalable Vector Graphics, compatible with all devices. A close up of a Vector Graphics image which isn’t pixelated despite being enlarged

  4. Adobe Illustrator is regarded as the most powerful tool for creating Vector Graphics, and other options include InkScape for Linux and even Figma. A close up of a Raster Graphics image which is pixelated after being enlarged

  5. Raster Graphics Raster graphics are made up of pixels. Every pixel uses a specific color to produce an image. When an image is zoomed in or enlarged, pixels appear as tiny squares on a graph paper or canvas. When you take a photo with your phone or scan a document into your computer, the image gets saved as a JPEG. JPEG is the most popular format for saving Raster Graphics.
