Part 5: Installation, Activation, and Common Workflows
Optimized Hardware
For the best experience with Repeat and Freeform Gradients, a GPU with at least 2 GB VRAM (e.g., GeForce GTX 1050 Ti or Radeon Pro 560X) is necessary.
The Context: Why 2020 Was a Turning Point
Released in late 2019 and early 2020, Illustrator 2020 (the first to drop the "CC" numbering in favor of the year) bridged two eras. It arrived just before the global shift to remote work, meaning it was the last version optimized heavily for local hardware.

- Stability improvements for GPU Performance (especially on Windows)
- A fix for missing fonts when opening legacy AI files

- Brazilian Portuguese, Dutch, Swedish, Czech
For enterprise environments and freelance designers working with international clients, this build allowed seamless switching of UI language without reinstalling. This was particularly valuable for agencies producing assets for global campaigns.
