Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator

The first step before using Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator is that the person should make it a routine to make a drawing before making it on the computer. For example, a sketch and then a thumbnail can be drawn. Second, the documents should be built the same size. Third, files saved as a .psd file should be placed into illustrator as a smart object. Therefore, if an object is updated in Photoshop, it is also updated in illustrator. Yet, when the user places the vector object in Photoshop, it embeds it. As a result, it doesn’t link it. Edit in illustrator, wont update in Photoshop. Fourth, the user is able to edit colors in illustrator and save them, but the color source file will not be matched in Photoshop. Lastly, the user can use a no fill/bounding box to copy and paste an item from illustrator into Photoshop. Once in Photoshop, the user will paste the object as a smart item to make sure that the copied item maintains the same placement as it was in illustrator.
