Adobe announces Creative Suite 4


Adobe has unveiled Creative Suite 4 (CS4), the latest update to its suite of high-end applications for print, web, and video professionals.

One of the biggest changes users will notice right away is the new tabbed interface for applications in CS4. Adobe has given all of its applications the ability to use tabs, so you can have multiple tabs open at the same time, but still be in one window.

Files and objects can be shared across tabs by clicking and dragging them and holding them on a new tab. Of course, if you prefer the multiple window interface of the old Adobe products, you can still use that too.

Major standalone products released as part of CS4 include Photoshop, Photoshop Extended, InDesign, Illustrator, Flash Professional, Dreamweaver, After Effects, and Adobe Premiere.

The suite will be available next month, with prices ranging from $1,699 to $2,499.
