I have one of the Creative Suites, version CS4. Unless, I’m missing something, can I NOT upgrade to a new version?
Is anyone else in this boat? It seems you can only upgrade from 5 or 5.5.

They had a deal last month where you could upgrade from anything, I think CS3 and up. I had 5.5 and did the upgrade, and I’ve been fairly pleased so far, at least after I figured out how to make the interface less horrible.

Great…I guess I’ll see if they run an more deals in the near future.
Need a new machine to run all these upgrades, so I guess it’s food or technology!

Bob, if you have a kid in school you could always purchase an Academic Version.

No kids. In school or otherwise.
But, I do act childish on occasion, but I doubt that counts.

I think Adobe offers a monthly subscript fee for CS6 if that would be easier.

If you have license for CS3 you can get the whole CS6 Suite for $29 mo for the first year

Thanks!
I think we’re most likely going with the subscription version, so I’ll definitely check this out.

Walter, I’m still on CS5, but I’m considering the Adobe Cloud subscription offer as well, which includes TypeKit and Muse. Before I pull the trigger I want to see if you felt the upgrade to 6 was worth it?
Also, my I ask how much the upgrade deal was you got? I may be willing to wait for the next deal if it’s sweet enough.
Thanks!

We went for the Cloud. We got the upgrade price, too.
So far, so good. I’ve only downloaded what I use for now, but it’s nice knowing you get every app they have for the sub price.

Good to hear. I’ll likely do the same. Robert, if you need to save an Adobe document to a previous version, say InDesign 6 to InDesign 5, is that possible? I find that sometimes printers and newspapers are not always using the latest software.
However, most accept printable PDFs, so I guess that’s not as much of an issues as it used to be.

We work mostly in PDF, so it’s usually not an issue. I don’t know if you can save backwards. I think you usually can in other versions.

You used to have to save your inDesign file as an interchange document
(.INX) but that was replaced in CS5 with the inDesign Markup Language
format. Create your package in CS6 format, then save a copy in IDML format,
and they should be able to sort it.
Although, most reputable printers these days work from Press Ready PDF
files.
