AI at a glance
AI
Convert to AI when the recipient needs an editable Illustrator-native asset for ongoing design work, brand management, packaging updates, or professional vector refinement.
It is the right target when preserving Illustrator editability matters more than broad viewer compatibility.
For general sharing, PDF or SVG are often simpler handoff formats.
PAGES at a glance
PAGES
Convert to PAGES when the recipient is expected to continue editing the document in Apple Pages, especially in Mac- and iPad-centered teams, classrooms, or template-driven iWork workflows.
It is useful for brochures, reports, flyers, and general documents that benefit from Pages' blend of writing and visual layout.
For broader cross-platform collaboration, DOCX or PDF are often easier handoff formats.
