Illustrator
Adobe Illustrator is one kind of drawing program developed
by Adobe Systems. Adobe Illustrator was first developed by the Apple Macintosh
in 1986. Adobe Illustrator is the companion product of adobe Photoshop.
Photoshop is primarily geared toward digital photo manipulation and photo
realistic styles of computer illustration, while Illustrator provides results
in the typesetting and logo graphic areas of design.
Starting with version 1.0, Adobe chose to license
an image of Sandro Botticelli's "The Birth of Venus" from
the Bettmann
Archive and use the portion containing Venus' face as Illustrator's branding
image.
Warnock desired a Renaissance image to evoke his vision of Postscript as
a new Renaissance in publishing, and Adobe employee Luanne Seymour Cohen, who
was responsible for the early marketing material, found Venus' flowing tresses
a perfect vehicle for demonstrating Illustrator's strength in tracing smooth
curves over bitmap source images. Over the years the rendition of this image on
Illustrator's splash screen and packaging became more stylized to reflect
features added in each version.
The image of Venus was replaced in Illustrator CS(11.0) and CS2 (12.0) by a stylized flower to conform to the Creative Suite's
nature imagery. In CS3, Adobe changed the suite branding once again, to simple
colored blocks with two-letter abbreviations, resembling a periodic table of
elements. Illustrator was represented by the letters AI in white against
an orange background. The CS4 icon is almost identical, except for a slight
alteration to the font and the color which is dark gray. The CS5 icon is also
virtually the same, except that this time the logo is like a box, along with
all the other CS5 product logos. The "AI" is now bright yellow.
