In the early 1990s, Adobe released versions of Illustrator for Display PostScript licensees <a href="/wiki/NeXT" title="NeXT">NeXT</a>, <a href="/wiki/Digital_Equipment_Corporation" title="Digital Equipment Corporation">Digital Equipment Corporation</a> Ultrix, <a href="/wiki/Silicon_Graphics" title="Silicon Graphics">Silicon Graphics</a> IRIX, and <a href="/wiki/Sun_Microsystems" title="Sun Microsystems">Sun</a> <a href="/wiki/Solaris_(operating_system)" class="mw-redirect" title="Solaris (operating system)">Solaris</a> platforms, but they were discontinued due to poor market acceptance. The first version of Illustrator for Windows, version 2.0, was released in early 1989 and flopped. The next Windows version, version 4.0, was widely criticized as being too similar to Illustrator 1.1 instead of the Macintosh 3.0 version, and certainly not the equal of Windows' most popular illustration package <a href="/wiki/CorelDRAW" title="CorelDRAW">CorelDRAW</a>. (There were no versions 2.0 or 4.0 for the Macintosh—although, the second release for the Mac was titled Illustrator 88—the year of its release. And there was no version 6 for Windows.) Version 4 was, however, the first version of Illustrator to support editing in preview mode, which did not appear in a Macintosh version until 5.0 in 1993. Version 6 was the last truly Macintosh version of Illustrator. The interface changed radically with the following version to bring consistency between Mac and Windows computer platforms. The changes remained until CS6 when some small steps were taken to restore the app to a slightly more Mac-like interface. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Versions_7–10"><span id="Versions_7.E2.80.9310"></span>Versions 7–10</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Adobe_Illustrator&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Versions 7–10"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Illustrator_10.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/5/56/Illustrator_10.png/220px-Illustrator_10.png" decoding="async" width="220" height="171" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/5/56/Illustrator_10.png/330px-Illustrator_10.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/56/Illustrator_10.png 2x" data-file-width="358" data-file-height="278" /></a><figcaption>Adobe Illustrator 10, the last version before the Creative Suite rebrand</figcaption></figure> <p>With the introduction of Illustrator 7 in 1997, Adobe made critical changes in the user interface with regard to path editing (and also to converge on the same <a href="/wiki/User_interface" title="User interface">user interface</a> as <a href="/wiki/Adobe_Photoshop" title="Adobe Photoshop">Adobe Photoshop</a>), and many users opted not to upgrade.

It was the last version for the Mac which did not run natively on <a href="/wiki/Intel" title="Intel">Intel</a> processors.

Live Trace allows for the <a href="/wiki/Raster_to_vector" class="mw-redirect" title="Raster to vector">conversion of bitmap imagery into vector art</a> and improved upon the previous tracing abilities. Live Paint allows users more flexibility in applying color to objects, specifically those that overlap.

The ability to create multiple artboards is one of CS4's main additions from Freehand. The artboards allow you to create multiple versions of a piece of work within a single document. Other tools include the Blob Brush, which allows multiple overlapping vector brush strokes to easily merge or join, and a revamped gradient tool allowing for more in-depth color manipulation as well as transparency in gradients. </p><p>CS5 was released in April 2010. Along with a number of enhancements to existing functionality, Illustrator CS5's new features include a Perspective Grid tool taken from FreeHand, a Bristle Brush (for more natural and painterly looking strokes) and a comprehensive update to strokes, referred to by Adobe as "Beautiful Strokes". </p><p>In 2011 the Adobe Illustrator team developed a vector drawing app for <a href="/wiki/IPad" title="IPad">iPad</a> and <a href="/wiki/IPhone" title="IPhone">iPhone</a>, called Adobe Ideas.
