Overview

Adobe develops software for creative work and digital documents. Its products address tasks such as image editing, vector illustration, video production, and working with PDFs, with separate tools designed for different stages of a creative workflow.

Products and role

Photoshop centers on image editing, Illustrator on vector artwork, and Acrobat on PDF workflows. Adobe's support documentation is organized by product and task rather than treating these tools as interchangeable.

A useful distinction

File formats and editing models differ across creative tools. Choose the application around the work being produced and verify the required output format before handing a file to another person.
