THE INTERCONNECTION OF THE PROGRAMS ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR ® AND ADOBE PHOTOSHOP ® AND THEIR APPLICABILITY IN THE TEXLILE INDUSTRY
Abstract
The use of ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR ® and ADOBE PHOTOSHOP ® programs proved to be a real help in the textile industry in the process of creating and realizing the sketches that underlie the subsequent realization of the drafted product. The ease of use and the multitude of tools, commands and functions serving the process f drawing, modeling and styling made the aforementioned programs one of the most used in the textile industry. Illustrator was used to draw the basic sketch and elements that brought the product closer to its final appearance such as making stitch-like lines at the sleeve hem and the bottom hem using the Stroke panel and achieving the stripe pattern, then stylizing the pattern was done in Photoshop by means of filters. Illustrator was used to insert the background color and insert as border the pattern already stylized in Photoshop. In order to offer more variants available in more colors, the background color and the border color corresponding to the background color were changed into Photoshop. All of these graphical programs are used to meet the needs of designers who want to implement different designs to ease their work without having to produce samples, seeing the product in its desired shape, size, and color on the computer. These programs allow the change of size, color and shape of the designs without loss of quality.
