They are both very similar and share a lot of features

Illustrator is for one off documents and illustration

Indesign is more for magazines and multi-page docs

Saying that, what you learn in one app can easily be b applied to the other

I am an old veteran of illustrator, and found that my illus skills meant that I already knew about half of Indesign

so, in short, use illus for drawing and InDesign for documents, but the skills you learn in one will often transfer to the other
