Adobe Illustrator is one of the most advanced illustration and graphic design programs available, and in recent years, it has significantly improved its tools thanks to Artificial Intelligence. Almost any past function of Illustrator can now be performed faster and more efficiently with AI. But which are its most useful features?
Image Trace
One of the most useful and popular functions of Adobe Illustrator is Image Trace, which has revolutionized the way designers can vectorize and color images almost automatically. With this tool, you can transform any bitmap image into vector graphics, allowing for greater flexibility when scaling, modifying, and customizing elements within the program.
This is ideal for those looking to convert rasterized images, such as photographs or scanned drawings, into graphics that can be manipulated without losing quality. To use this feature, simply select the desired image and choose “Image Trace” from the tools menu. Adobe Illustrator provides a series of presets to choose from, which you can further customize to your liking.
Recolor Atwork
Another interesting AI-powered tool is Recolor Artwork, which allows you to change the color schemes of any graphic, enabling you to experiment with different combinations without altering the original structure of your design. Additionally, you can revert changes at any time, ensuring your original work is safe.
With this tool, Adobe’s AI suggests the best color combinations, optimized to enhance the visual impact of your design. Whether you’re aiming for a monochromatic style or a burst of colors, this feature allows you to visualize multiple options with just a couple of clicks. You can even create your own styles to apply to future images.
