Apparently Adobe changed the location where custom PDF job options files are stored. Some years ago, under Mac OS, the files used to be in /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PDF/Settings, the issue is when we drop a custom job options file in this folder, InDesign and Illustrator will not read the file.Instead we we need to store the custom job options file to the new location /Users. InDesign offers a direct and simple workflow that dramatically reduces the time and effort required to produce accessible PDF documents from an InDesign layout. Most of the tasks are executed within InDesign, with only a few final steps required in Adobe Acrobat.

  • For the Complete plan, you'll pay Adobe for the first year of Creative Cloud membership, a discount of 60% off the retail price. Unless you cancel, you'll pay Adobe every year after, a discount of 40% off the retail price. Adobe will state during the checkout process that your contract will renew automatically at standard rates, but you will actually be billed at the discounted rate.

Why do the plans' discounts change after the first year?

Adobe's offer to Charity Digital Exchange members uses the same pricing model as its offer to students and teachers. The first year is a promotional rate. Every subsequent year of the Complete plan is discounted 40% off the retail rate. Subsequent years of the Acrobat Pro DC plan are billed at the retail rate.

Why does Adobe not offer Creative Cloud or Acrobat Pro DC as a donation?

Adobe indesign basics

The number of design applications included in the suite, the cost of the cloud services Adobe offers, and the transition from a desktop-based to a cloud-based industry make it challenging for Adobe to offer Creative Cloud and Acrobat Pro DC as a donation. Also, by offering Creative Cloud and Acrobat Pro DC at a discount, Adobe can make it available to more organisation types than it could for a donated product.

Why is there an admin fee for the access to discounted rates?

TechSoup (the global partner for Charity Digital Exchange) charges a one-time administrative fee per to support all of their programmes, services, and education, helping nonprofits and charities around the world to use technology to further their missions.

Does Charity Digital Exchange offer a different licensing model than Creative Cloud or Acrobat Pro DC for individuals?

No. Charity Digital Exchange currently offers only access to discounted rates on the individual membership.

Can I get Creative Cloud products with a perpetual license like the previous Creative Suite products offered?

Adobe acrobat indesign

No. Adobe has transitioned to a cloud business model for its former Creative Suite products and no longer offers perpetual licenses for those products.

How is Creative Cloud different from Creative Suite?

Adobe Reader Indesign

Creative Cloud is the evolution of Creative Suite. Most of the products included in Creative Suite are available in Creative Cloud, including many that were not previously in Creative Suite. Creative Cloud offers these products through a subscription model. Complete plan members can pay monthly or annually, and Acrobat Pro DC plan members must pay monthly. Both members always get the latest version of each product. The Creative Cloud Complete plan for individuals also includes access to many online Adobe services and 20GB of cloud storage space.

See TechSoup’s article Adobe Creative Cloud: What's New, What's Different for more information.

How is Creative Cloud different from Document Cloud?

Creative Cloud includes apps for designing creative assets, like photos, video, audio, graphics, and interactive content. Document Cloud includes Acrobat Pro DC. Both include cloud-based storage space, which integrates with Adobe's mobile apps. The Acrobat Pro DC plan also includes the Adobe Sign service.

How is Acrobat Pro DC different from previous version of Acrobat Pro?

See the comparison of versions of Acrobat Pro on the Adobe website.

Should I choose the monthly or annual payment schedule for the Complete plan?

The total price for the year is the same for both payment schedules, and you must agree to a one-year contract obligation regardless of the payment schedule you choose. The difference between the two payment schedules is only how often you pay, not how much you pay. Acrobat Pro DC plan members must pay monthly.

How many Creative Cloud and Acrobat Pro DC memberships can I request?

You can get as many Creative Cloud individual memberships as your organisation needs through Charity Digital Exchange’s access to discounted rates. You just need to request one product for each individual who needs a membership. Each membership is valid for one user on up to two computers.

Do the applications run in a browser?

No. You install and run the Creative Cloud desktop applications, like Photoshop and Illustrator, directly on your computer.

How many computers can I install Adobe software on?

Adobe Acrobat Vs Indesign

Adobe allows each user to install its software on up to two computers. This can be home and office, desktop and laptop, Windows or Mac, or any other combination. However, you can't run the software simultaneously on both computers. If you install the software on more than two computers, you will need to deactivate the software first on one of the computers.

Do I need to be connected constantly in order to use Creative Cloud or Acrobat Pro DC applications?

No. Your Creative Cloud desktop applications are installed and run directly on your computer. You only need to be online to install your software and if you are using the Creative Cloud or Acrobat Pro DC services like syncing your files. An Internet connection is required the first time you install and license your desktop applications, but you can use the applications in offline mode with a valid software license. The desktop applications will attempt to validate your software licenses every 30 days. For annual members, you can use the applications for up to 99 days in offline mode. Month-to-month members can use the software for up to 30 days in offline mode.

Do I need to store all of the files I create with Creative Cloud or Acrobat Pro DC in Adobe's cloud storage?

No. You can save all of your files to your computer and share only the ones you want.

Indesign Vs Acrobat

Can I renew my Creative Cloud or Acrobat Pro DC membership with Charity Digital Exchange’s access to discounted rates offer?

My organisation already has one or more memberships at retail rates. Are we still eligible for additional memberships at the discounted nonprofit rate?

Yes. Existing individual memberships are ineligible for the discounted nonprofit rate, but an organisation can request new memberships at that rate for individuals who don't have them.

Are Creative Cloud or Acrobat Pro DC memberships transferable? Can a new employee or volunteer use a former employee or volunteer's membership for the remaining contract obligation?

Individual memberships are managed on an individual level, and the user's email address is connected to the Adobe ID. With individual memberships, your organisation can't change the member's Adobe ID or password, so you should make proper billing arrangements when an employee or volunteer leaves.

What is the difference between Photoshop Elements and Photoshop CC?

See TechSoup’s post Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 vs. Adobe Photoshop CC.

What is the difference between Premiere Elements and Premiere Pro CC?

See TechSoup’s post Adobe Premiere Elements 13 vs. Adobe Premiere CC.

What happens if I cancel my Adobe Creative Cloud or Acrobat Pro DC membership?

If you cancel within the first 14 days, Adobe will issue a full refund. If you cancel after the first 14 days, Adobe will refund half of your remaining contract obligation. Regardless of whether you pay annually or monthly, you are still obligated to pay for half of the remaining year's membership.

After you cancel, Creative Cloud and Acrobat Pro DC applications will stop working. However, you will continue to have access to your Creative Cloud membership's free benefits, including 2 GB Creative Cloud storage or 5 GB Document Cloud storage and use of certain services.

Will I lose all my files if I leave Creative Cloud or Document Cloud?

No. You can save all of your files to your computer and keep them before you leave Creative Cloud or Document Cloud. If you've stored more than 2 GB of files on Adobe's Creative Cloud storage space or more than 5 GB of files on Adobe's Document Cloud storage space when you cancel your membership, you will lose files stored beyond the initial 2 GB or 5 GB you used unless you back them up ahead of time.
