Editorial Review

Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Premium software is the ultimate toolkit for crafting precise page layouts, achieving typographic finesse, creating stunning digital images and vector graphics, developing eye-catching web pages and rich interactive experiences, and producing them all with utmost fidelity within a single, unified creative environment.

Leverage the familiar InDesign environment and your existing expertise to deliver design in more media. Just one example: Export an InDesign layout as XFL, open it in Flash, edit text and graphics, and then add interactive elements to produce a compelling dynamic document.

Drag a Photoshop image into a Dreamweaver page to create a dynamically linked Smart Object. If the source file changes, a badge shows that the Dreamweaver version is no longer current. To update the image, simply click the Update icon in the Properties panel.

In Illustrator, create and arrange up to 100 artboards of differing sizes, and then save them in a single, multipage PDF file or export them as sequentially numbered files.

In Photoshop, rotate canvas and image together to any angle for convenient viewing and editing.
