Adobe is one of the leading sellers in programs people use on their day-to-day basis.

Whether it is to write some code, create a video or edit a photo, Adobe can be seen everywhere. But have you actually thought what each Adobe program is and what they’re used for? If you are a newbie to anything Adobe, don’t worry, that’s okay. Everyone starts from somewhere. In this blog, we will be discussing anything and everything Adobe. We will be discussing how each Adobe program is used and what they do.

Adobe Programs:
 

PHOTOSHOP
adobe photoshopAdobe Photoshop is one of the leading Adobe’s software that is currently being used worldwide. Photoshop is a software that is the world’s best for image creation and graphic design.   Photoshop is an industry standard for image manipulation. The program has been used for so long that it’s now become a verb. For example, it can be said that an image has been ‘photoshopped’ instead of ‘edited’. Adobe Programs Photoshop is different from other photo editing software. Photoshop allows you to see any of the changes you make through a layer-based editing system. This will allow you to edit or create an image while making with multiple layers. As well as using a layer-based editing system, Photoshop creates and edits images by using pixels. This is different from other Adobe programs, as Adobe Illustrator uses vectors when creating images/graphics. Another reason how Adobe Photoshop is different from other photo editing software is that it will allow you to work in 3D not just in 2D. This feature will allow you to create something that will add an extra effect on the graphic you are creating.

ILLUSTRATOR

Illustrator allows you to create logos, icons, drawing, typography, and illustrations for print, web, and video.   Whereas Photoshop is pixel-based, Illustrator uses vectors.adobe program As Illustrator uses vectors, this allows people to create logos, illustrations and graphics that look cleaner than using pixel-based software, e.g. Photoshop. With the help of vector-based graphics, people will be able to create images the size they want and if they need to enlarge it, the quality of the image/graphic they have created doesn’t change. If people were to do this with an image they have created within Photoshop, the graphic they have created will lose some quality due to the pixels.

INDESIGN

Whether you work within print or social media, InDesign can help to create interesting layouts that you can use. Where Photoshop and Illustrator use either vectors and pixels, InDesign can work with both. This means when moving something onto InDesign from Photoshop or Illustrator, the quality will not change. InDesign allows you to create different layouts that you can use within the different aspect of your business. For example, it can help to design flyers, posters, brochures, annual reports, magazines, or even books. With the different tools, InDesign allows you to use, you can create multicolumn pages that feature stylish typography, graphics, images or tables.

STOCK

Adobe Stock allows you to get assets for Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign and Premiere Pro. Connecting straight to your Adobe Creative Cloud app, you won’t have to worry about wasting time to get things from the internet and get it on the program you are using.

Adobe Programs Working Together:
The plus side of using Adobe programs is that some programs integrate with one another. This means that you can create work on one software and you can add more bits to it on different software. For example, if you create something on Illustrator, but you want to do something to it, you bring the thing that you were working on into Photoshop or InDesign. This integration between different software allows you to explore and to add different elements on to the thing you are creating. This will also give you an edge to make your work better than your competitors.
