Adobe Illustrator is designed for a complete vector graphics environment and can be used with other Adobe creative programs.
In this program you can open up to 100 jobs in multiple designs in a single canvas and work with them independently or combining them.
Vector graphics has a lot of advantages that makes it quite easier for you to achieve those results you had desired in your imagination and transfer them in your PC. Works requiring high resolutions such as wallpapers and cartoons are made much easy and more versatile in this version.
Practical demonstration of these works are demonstrated in these tutorials for your reference.
