    ILLUSTRATOR WORKSPACE

                      The Workspace in Adobe Illustrator refers to the arrangement of tools, panels and menus that
                      help users create  and edit  vector graphics  efficiently.  Illustrator provides  multiple  predefined
                      workspaces tailored for different tasks and users can also customise their workspace based on
                      their workflow preferences.
