Now, it’s been quite some time since I used Dreamweaver (back when it was a Macromedia product, actually), but it’s an application I know pretty well that works in a field I know very well. I still think this application falls far short of Cool Edit and Sound Forge, but at least it will visually match your other Creative Suite applications. There is also project exchange with other NLEs.
Oh yeah, 5.5 adds native multichannel 5.1 support. I pay for this thing every time I upgrade, but after the first time, I’ll likely never use it again unless I need to mix multichannel audio. It doesn’t look like much to me, but feel free to check for yourself (warning: Adobe randomly changes their site around from time-to-time, so, sorry if the link is broken). InDesignĪdmittedly, I don’t use InDesign much (or at all), so I won’t go into too much detail. There’s also a wizard for creating PDFs, and an improved toolbar. It also adds online file sharing, which I’m sure won’t be exploited any time soon, and a new fullscreen viewing mode. AcrobatĪcrobat X Pro adds improved integration with Microsoft products, including Office 2010 (meaning the icons look like they belong in Office 2010 now) and Sharepoint. And we’re still stuck with layers not able to be dragged between tabbed windows. Adding GPU acceleration is great, except that most artists I know end up turning it off. I’m pretty disappointed in this, because there are still numerous issues with Photoshop alone that haven’t been addressed (this problem is ongoing).

Adobe should continue to support these versions with patches (as long as they don’t start charging for those too) until the next full release comes out. For most users, this means that there is no reason to upgrade. Photoshop, Photoshop Extended, Illustrator, and Fireworks are still CS5.
ADOBE AFTER EFFECTS CS5 V10 UPDATE
There are numerous improvements across the board to a few of the applications, but others receive no update that I can see. This fact in itself makes me wonder: is this simply a bugfix release with a ton of marketing and an actual purchase price behind it? The list of updated applications would seem to indicate this is the case. Previous Creative Suites have used whole numbers, with the applications themselves updating their revision numbers as patches have been released (Photoshop 10.01, for example). It’s a point update (CS5.5), so it’s not quite a full update warranting an entirely new version number (CS6). The Whole Enchilada: CS5.5įirst off, this release is numbered a bit differently than previous releases. The long answer…well, I’m good at the long answer. I’m not really sure why Adobe felt this was a necessary update that they felt was worthy of charging money for.
ADOBE AFTER EFFECTS CS5 V10 UPGRADE
Having recently upgraded to CS5 from a mixed CS3/CS4 environment, I had to ask myself if it’s worth both the trouble and expense to upgrade at this point.
Note the "CS5.5" tag, because it's the exact same box as CS5.Adobe has recently released version 5.5 of its Creative Suite packages.
