- Corel DRAW
- Illustrator 6

As a professional logo designer you use Corel DRAW?

Can somebody explane me what is the difference betweet this two programs is, because i want maybe to use Corel DRAW.

Maybe together with illustrator if that is possible?

Both are "vector oriented" graphic programs. Both are professional programs. And in each keys is good to know working in both.
If you have use a Adobe Photoshop ever, IIlustrator will be closer to you because of similar graphical environment.
Illustrator , in my opinion , is better for more complex designs with many effect and gradient, Corel is better for simple clear vector
designing without lot of effect, shadows and so...

P.S. I forgot one very important thing. Illustrator has big advantage, Its part of Adobe family and as that it can be use parallel with
InDesign or PhotoShop...(all programs of Adobe family can be linked together with Adobe Bridge, and if u make some change in Illustrator it can be automatic apply in same file which exist in ,for example, InDesign). Also PDF file is much easier to process with Illustrator then Corel.

havent used ai yet, but nice to know, thanx:D
