Although the Adobe family's two big leader have a reputation for being able to get a clear sense of the difference, few people actually make a systematic comparison of their common functions. For beginners, the contrast between AI and PS is very instructive, and when you choose a Starter tool, you can save a lot of tangled time.
Eagle-eyed students should notice that the AI is the version is 1.1 instead of 1.0, which is actually a reason. The AI was originally developed by Adobe in 1986 for Apple's Macintosh computer design, released in January 1987, before it was just Adobe's in-house font development and PostScript editing software. Although it was released, it was later launched, the Adobe Illustrator1.1 version, which features a videotape containing the Adobe founder John F. Warnock the software features of the publicity. A later version is called 88 because the release time is 1988, and the system version is still within the scope of 1.x.
Now, as one of Adobe's two girls PS, in fact, in the beginning is not a product of adobe. In 1987, Thomas Nore, the main designer of Photoshop, bought an Apple Computer (Macplus) to help him with his doctoral thesis. At the same time, Thomas found that the Apple computer could not display black and white images with grayscale, so he wrote a program display, and his brother John Nore at this time in director George Lucas's film special effects production company industry Light Magic ( The famous Industrial Light demon, is interested in Thomas's program. The two brothers in more than a year after the display constantly modified as a more powerful image editing program, after a number of renaming, at an exhibition accepted a participant's proposal, the program renamed Photoshop. At this time the display/photoshop already has level, color balance, saturation and so on adjustment. In addition, John wrote some programs that later became the basis for Plug-ins (Plug-in).
Their first commercial success was to hand Photoshop to a scanner company, named Barneyscan XP, with a version of 0.87. Meanwhile, John continued to find other buyers, including Supermac and Aldus, without success. Eventually they found Adobe's art director, Russell Brown. Russell Brown is now studying whether to consider the Colorstudio image editing program for another company, Letraset. After seeing Photoshop, he thought the Knoll Brothers ' program was more promising. In July 1988 they decided to cooperate verbally, and the true legal contract was not completed until the following April.
The legend begins here.
