What is the difference between Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator?
The primary difference lies in how they handle graphics: Photoshop is pixel-based, while Illustrator is vector-based.
- Adobe Photoshop (Raster): Uses a grid of tiny colored squares called pixels. It is the gold standard for photo manipulation, retouching, and complex digital painting. Because it relies on pixels, enlarging an image too much can lead to “pixelation” or loss of quality.
- Adobe Illustrator (Vector): Uses mathematical paths (points and lines). It is the go-to tool for logo design, typography, and illustrations. Because it uses math rather than pixels, you can scale a vector graphic from a business card to a giant billboard without ever losing sharpness.
