It’s a relief to report, then, that CS4 represents the first time Adobe is clearly responding to frustration on the part of users. User complaints have increased at a comparable clip. Indeed, according to Fortune, since CS1’s release, Adobe’s revenue from the CS packages has increased by 30 percent for each release.
But there’s a contingent of designers that believes Adobe’s product releases are planned to increase revenue, not improve tools. That’s certainly how Adobe would like us to see things. It may be time to begin considering Halloween costumes everywhere else, but for designers, it’s Christmas! The elves at Adobe have been sweating over their workstations and skipping lunches the past year, and have finally produced, for our delight, Creative Suite 4. Patric King is a contributing editor to Print and the co-owner of web design and development studio House of Pretty. Adobe’s latest version of its Creative Suite still has flaws, but it makes a big step toward true integration.
