## AI vs PSD

|  | AI | PSD |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Full name | Adobe Illustrator Artwork | Adobe Photoshop Document |
| Type | Vector | Image |
| Extensions | .ai | .psd |
| MIME type | application/illustrator | image/vnd.adobe.photoshop |
| Best for | editable vector artwork from Illustrator | editable Photoshop projects |
| Properties | vector, proprietary | lossless, proprietary |

**AI:** AI is Adobe Illustrator's native vector format. Modern AI files are PDF-compatible, which lets them be converted without Illustrator.

**PSD:** PSD is Adobe Photoshop's native file format, storing layers, masks and adjustments. Converting flattens the visible composite into a single image.
