Adobe Illustrator is for creating vector graphics such as logos, icons and more. The industry-standard tool for sharp graphics that remain crisp even at small sizes.

Whoosh- a logo created in Illustrator looks as razor sharp on a business card as it does from a giant billboard, because it was simply re-proportioned with the same math- but no loss of quality.

Imagine you have a toolbox full of magic shapes and lines that can bend and stretch without ever losing their crispness. That's basically what Adobe Illustrator is! 

t's a software program that lets you create all sorts of vector graphics, which are like these magical shapes.

Here are some things you can make with Illustrator, even if you're not a pro designer:

logos and icons
posters, flyers, packages, business cards and any printed stuff.
Fun illustrations
 cartoons
Sharp infographics and charts

Unlike regular photos, vector graphics don't get blurry when you resize them. So, you can take an illustration you made in Illustrator and use it on a tiny business card or a giant billboard, and it will always look perfect!
