In my case, as a retro printing and graphics arts business, the choices were easy. Upgrade from InDesing CS, Photoshop 9, Illustrator 10 and Acrobat 7 Pro. I'm still using G4's and OS 10.4.11. And thought I'd try GoLive CS2 since I haven't done any web coding in many years so that one was just to learn something new. As in most Adobe CS2 pieces the the learning curve is steep. Fortunately you can find many helpful CS2 books at Amazon for a few dollars "new "books and a few cents for "used" plus a $4 shipping for each one. I ordered four books published by Peacepit Press for my new upgrades for about $30 including shipping. Official Abode training books are also available for about the same price. Acorbat 8, as stated earlier, allows you to do some limited editing of PDF files if you have the same fonts in your system. It will also allow you export a PDF to other formats --like Word, which may be easier to edit. It also allows you to create PDF forms with writable fields and PDF files from other program. Of course OS X also can save a file to PDF. Acrobat 8 is a big deal for me since I get so many PDF's from customers that need a lot of help to get printed properly. The Adobe downloads are not a big deal for most folks but they are a very good deal for me after spending many hundred's (1,000's?) of dollars for Adobe software during the last 25 years or so. --glen -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
