Adobe Creative Suite 2 Premium, DE CD Mac 18040294 User Manual

➤

 Selectively display layers and layer comps in Photoshop files, and layers in Adobe 

PDF files, to experiment with different design options or use multiple variations of 

a file in your layout—all while linking to a single file.

➤

 Create more consistent designs and speed up production by using object, 

paragraph, and character styles in InDesign. Save graphic, text, and frame-level 

attributes as object styles, and define paragraph and character styles using rich 

formatting options. Then apply and globally update these styles efficiently.

➤

 Easily export InDesign objects as snippets, which can be shared with colleagues or 

reused in other documents. When you place or drag a snippet into a layout, 

InDesign re-creates the original objects, their formatting, and their relative 

positioning on the page.

• Apply editable drop shadows, feathering, and other transparency effects in 

InDesign CS2. Maintain soft edges when placing transparent Photoshop files.

• Import styled Microsoft Word and Excel tables, create tables by importing from 

tab-delimited text files, or build them from scratch in InDesign. Further refine 

your tables with formatting options such as color fills in alternating rows and 

automatic running headers and footers.

• Access advanced typographical controls including the Paragraph Composer, 

OpenType® fonts, drop caps, optical kerning and margin alignment, and more.

➤

 Use a visual CSS layout window to create standards-compliant code that renders 

faithfully on the latest mobile devices and Web browsers. Or, code by hand and 

verify syntax easily.

• Save time by placing native Photoshop, Illustrator, and Adobe PDF files into GoLive 

as Smart Objects, which re-render on-the-fly when you crop or resize them.

➤

 Start designing mobile sites with visual authoring and advanced hand coding tools. 

Then verify standards compliance and preview with mobile browser emulation for 

leading devices.

➤

 Develop for mobile using global industry standards, including CSS, XHTML,  

SVG Tiny, SMIL, MPEG-4, and more.

• Work with source code in five views: Layout/Source mode split view, Source mode, 

Outline mode, Outline/Source mode split view, and the Source palette.

➤

 Check Adobe PDF files using built-in print profiles in the improved Preflight 

feature—which now supports droplets for automation—and share preflight reports 

as comments.

➤

 Identify and correct common problems in Adobe PDF files—convert colors, 

preview separations, remap spot colors, flatten transparency, and fix hairline 

rules—all in Acrobat 7.0 Professional, without having to re-create the file.
