Unleash your creativity with powerful, integrated Adobe design tools
The Adobe Design Collection contains four leading-edge design and publishing applications in one fully integrated suite: Adobe InDesign™ 1.0, Adobe Photoshop® 5.5, Adobe Illustrator® 8.0, and Adobe Acrobat® 4.0. Together, these programs give you everything you need to create and produce professional images, illustrations, and layouts, and to publish documents across media. Plus, the collection offers substantial savings over the cost of buying the programs separately.

The collection delivers a powerful set of tools that form the basis for an exceptionally smooth design workflow. Built on a new state-of-the-art code base, InDesign is redefining professional publishing software. Photoshop and Illustrator are the world's leading image-editing and illustration programs. Acrobat is rapidly becoming the standard for exchanging, reviewing, and outputting files with precision.

Unmatched creative freedom
An extraordinary breadth of tools in each program extends your creative possibilities. Use the world-class image-editing tools in Photoshop to retouch, enhance, color-correct, and apply special effects to images. Draw and edit detailed illustrations with rich colors, gradients, and blends using the industry-standard drawing tools and color controls in Illustrator. Produce sophisticated page layouts and elegantly composed text with the innovative design and typographical features in InDesign.

Increased productivity
Each program includes features that help you work faster. Automate production and creative tasks using the Actions palettes in Photoshop and Illustrator or with scripts in InDesign. All three programs also let you undo and redo multiple steps at any time and organize elements on layers for easy management. E-mail documents to clients as PDF files for review and markup using highlights, strikethroughs, electronic sticky notes, and other editing tools in Acrobat. When you're ready to print, use Acrobat to produce PDF files optimized for high-resolution output by your service provider.

Tight integration
Shared Adobe technologies provide consistent font handling, color management, on-screen graphics display, and PDF support across all four programs. Moreover, InDesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator share common palettes, tools, commands, and keyboard shortcuts, so working among the programs is simple. Together, these four applications form one smoothly integrated design environment.
