Introduction

• Through this presentation, I would like to share
  some of the typical differences between Adobe
  Illustrator and CorelDraw.
• Furthermore we are not giving difference on the
  basis of allied tools features, instead well
  discuss information that is important and
  industry relevant.

V/S
3
Meaning Significance

• Adobe Illustrator and Corel Draw are the most
  sophisticated
• vector-based illustration software used for
  graphics designing.
• These softwares are developed to
• Deliver fast results
• Meet the demands of designing professionals
• and graphic artists for business, or home
  use.
•  

4

• Adobe Illustrator is used as a vector graphics
  editor for drawing various types of things such
  as designing logos, drawing maps, illustrations,
  packaging design, etc.
• CorelDraw is a drawing program from Corel mainly
  used to create varied types of documents ranging
  from visiting cards to big hoardings.

5
Now Lets Look At The Differences Between The Two
6
Creator

• Adobe Illustrator is owned and created by Adobe
  Systems in
• the year 1986.
• CorelDraw is owned and created by Corel
  Corporations in the year 1987.

7
Learning Curves

• CorelDraw software is user friendly and has
  lesser learning curves i.e. anybody can learn it,
  while Illustrator is regarded as matured software
  involving stiff learning curves.
• CorelDraw software can be learned even from
  tutorials but one needs proper training form a
  good graphic design institute for learning
  Illustrator.

8
Functionality

• In Illustrator, one can resize vector images
  without compromising the quality. The software is
  considered best for designing logos.
• CorelDraw is wide used to create print industry
  standard graphics mainly employed for high
  quality printing.

9
Libraries in CorelDraw Illustrator

• Libraries often plays a crucial role in
  determining the speed factor of a software.
  Availability of varied amount of features has a
  direct bearing on the performance of a software.
  
• In this race Adobe Illustrator wins over
  CorelDraw. Illustrator has strong library as
  compared to CorelDraw. For instance Illustrator
  encompasses brushes, symbols, gradient, swatches,
  graphic style, pattern, etc. which is not present
  in CorelDraw.

10
Color Preview

• Every designer is concerned with the quality of
  final output of his work rather than what appears
  on the screen. Therefore color preview is the
  major area of concern for the designers.
• Color Preview or print preview, in CorelDraw is
  not
• as good as Illustrator.
• Illustrator being a Postscript file format
  renders
• more accurate print preview.

11
Compatibility Versions

• Usability of a software entirely depends upon its
  compatibility with various operating software
  platforms. In this context Adobe Illustrator has
  upper edge over CorelDraw.
• All versions of Illustrator runs on PC Mac,
  while same is not the case with CorelDraw. Few
  versions of CorelDraw only run on Apple
  Computers.
• The latest version of Adobe Illustrator is named
  as CC , while
• CorelDraws latest version is X6.

12
Which One is Better??
13

• Having looked at above differences we cannot say
  that Illustrator is better or CorelDraw is
  better.
• Both software encompasses unique features and its
  usage depends entirely upon individuals
  requirement.

However Illustrator is considered best for making
illustrations, while CorelDraw is most
appropriate for desktop publishing.
14

• According to recent market survey by ADMEC
  Multimedia Institute, Delhi approximate 75 of
  the industry uses CorelDraw software because of
  its smooth learning curves.
• Furthermore, this statistics is reflecting that
  finding employment in CorelDraw is much easier
  than in Illustrator.

But being a Graphic Designer Trainer, my view
differs.
15

• According to me, good knowledge and command of
  one software over the other doesnt make any
  difference. What matters is the creative thinking
  sound understanding of designs in an individual
  designer.

16

• However if an individual have good command over
  both Illustrator and CorelDraw software, then it
  will definitely allows him to earn good
  remuneration package in the graphic designing
  industry.
