When I talk about graphic design, I’m referring to mostly graphics not drawn by hand, and graphics that may involve text. The apps should have tools that allow you to create graphics with precision, layout tools and ability to handle text layout, character and paragraph adjustments.

  • Print projects: Posters, flyers, name cards, brochures, magazines
  • Web design: Web banners, ads, layouts, Youtube thumbnails
  • User interface design: Icons, UI elements, mockups
