InDesign is the tool that brings Photoshop and Illustrator together. It is a vector based program, and is primarily used for layouts and creating multiple page documents. Typesetting is another strength of InDesign, and combined with the photo editing capabilities of Photoshop, and the scalable graphics of Illustrator, InDesign is perfect for creating graphic media for print.

Illustrator is a vector based illustration program. Artwork created in illustrator can be scaled infinitely, both bigger and smaller. This is the perfect tool for designing logos and business stationery, however it does lack the ability to control pagination in the way InDesign does. Ideally your design components should be created using Illustrator to maximize quality and file compatibility.

The primary use of Photoshop is to retouch and edit your pixel-based images. Photoshop is a raster based editing program, which means images used within the software are made up of pixels / dots. We would not recommend Photoshop for creating illustrated designs or vector graphics, as the output files generally can’t be scaled without artwork pixilation or image quality reduction.
