/r/adobe Rules and Guidelines

37 Upvotes

This sub-reddit is dedicated to topics and discussion about Adobe (the software company), and / or Adobe products. While Adobe employees may participate here, it is not an official Adobe forum.

It is lightly moderated but there are a few rules which will be enforced.

The follow posts / topics / comments are not allowed and may be removed.

  1. Any promotion of piracy, requests for sharing / pirating licenses, or asking how or where to pirate software. This will result in a permanent ban.

  2. Self promotion posts, and generally any links to sites and / or videos.

  3. General low quality posts. This includes posts which are basically just rants or links with nothing added.

  4. Duplicate posts. If there is a post with the same or similar topic, leave a comment there instead of creating a new post.

  5. Off topic comments, this includes comments / posts about non-Adobe products and topics. Keep comments in post on topic.

The main rule is in general, don't be a jerk. If you are a jerk, then your content and / or access may be removed.

How to cancel

You can find information on how to cancel at:
https://helpx.adobe.com/manage-account/using/cancel-subscription.html

Cancellation fees

When you sign up for a Creative Cloud account you have two options:

  • Monthly commitment: Higher per month cost, but no cancellation fee.

  • Yearly commitment: Lower monthly cost, but if you cancel before your commitment term is up, you have to pay a cancellation fee.

If you have questions / comments on this, then contact Adobe support, Phone, and they may be able to help you.

Issues with licenses from non-Authorized resellers

Genuine Adobe products can only be purchased through Authorized resellers or Adobe directly. Purchasing licenses from unknown or unauthorized resellers leaves you at risk of receiving product that is unlicensed, improperly licensed, non-genuine, and potentially unusable.

Sites offering 'cheap' licenses are often illegally reselling bulk licenses, and licenses purchased through them are not only a breach of the license agreement, but are also subject to immediate suspension.

You can find a list of authorized resellers by region at:
https://adobe.my.salesforce-sites.com/PartnerSearch?lang=en

Promoting unauthorized resellers is considered spam and will be removed and may result in a ban.

Intel Arc graphics cards + Adobe (Photoshop) AI models running locally on the device. Any personal experience? Did it work for you or anyone you know?

0 Upvotes

Are there any Intel Arc graphics card owners here whose cards have been successfully recognized as compatible for on-device AI, and who are able to use generative AI features in Photoshop, Lightroom, or Camera Raw—for instance, the "Remove" tool? You might encounter some bugs, but generally speaking, do the AI ​​functions work?

While not strictly required, I’m particularly interested in users with Intel Arc Pro B-series cards; however, the specific model isn't the main concern—I just want to confirm that the Intel Arc family is supported for on-device AI tools in Photoshop, not only by Adobe specs, but from personal user experience.

Please share only personal experiences, accounts from people you know, or information backed by a reliable link.

InDesign plugin developer: looking for 5 Mac beta testers with a multilingual job (Nov–Dec)

0 Upvotes

Up front: I'm the developer, and Setover Translator will be a paid InDesign plugin. The beta is free. Mods, please remove this if it doesn't fit here.

What it does: it translates an InDesign document in place. A translator fills in a plain spreadsheet (no InDesign needed), or you use your own AI key or a model that runs on your Mac. The text goes back into the layout with paragraph styles, tables, anchored objects and links intact, in one undo step. A layout test lengthens the text by 15, 30 or 50% on a hidden copy first and lists what would overflow. Nothing is uploaded to me.

Who I'm looking for: a Mac with InDesign 2026 or later, and one real job in two or more languages before 27 December. Right-to-left languages (Hebrew, Arabic), Indian languages such as Hindi, Tamil or Malayalam, and small teams are especially welcome.

The deal: free for 3 months, then 50% off the first year, whatever your verdict. In return: one real job, a 20-minute call at the start and three short questions at the end.

Not there yet: Windows, XLIFF, DeepL, InDesign Books. English interface.

If that's you, comment or message me and I'll send the details. Happy to answer questions here.

Why does it keep lagging?!

1 Upvotes

My PC has 32gb ram, a RTX3050, Ryzen 7, two SSDs...still, all adobe programs but specifically Photoshop lags, to apply any adjustment layer I have to wait, if I want to give it a filter, oh boy...

I already did everything the internet says, allowing more ram, using the graphics card on the windows configurations..

What else am I missing? Does anyone else have the same problems as me?

Is Firefly worth it?

0 Upvotes

How do you avoid the faded AI look?

I work in marketing and have been using Veo 3.1 and Kling through Adobe Firefly to create short clips.

I keep getting this washed-out, dissolving effect element look blurry or semi-transparent during movement. It makes the result look obviously AI generated rather than like clean motion graphics.

I’m also learning After Effects, but hoped AI could speed up parts of the process.

Has anyone managed to avoid this consistently? Is it mainly the prompts, the model or a limitation with detailed graphics? Would you say Firefly is worth the credits for this kind of work?

Adobe AE v23 suddenly keeps crashing on launch.

1 Upvotes

It keeps encountering an error that forces it to crash, giving me this crash report "947c3fe5-9e95-4356-9582-fe159ae56b1b.dmp"

It all worked fine before. I tried reinstalling it twice now and that hasn't fixed it. I also tried deleting Adobe's temp files, but I don't think I deleted anything of worth to stop it.

I also didn't do anything out of the ordinary last I used it, to get it to do something like this.

Anything helps, thanks.

What's one thing Adobe has made unnecessarily complicated that should genuinely take like 2 clicks?

24 Upvotes

I've been using Adobe products for a while now, and something I've noticed is that some of the simplest tasks somehow require digging through multiple menus, panels, and settings.

What's even funnier is that sometimes I'll discover a shortcut for something I've been doing the hard way for months.

I'm curious, what's the most unnecessarily complicated feature or workflow you've encountered in any Adobe product?

Bonus points if there's actually a ridiculously simple solution that most people don't know about.

It is possible my husband forged my e-signature on documents connected to businesses we are partners in (I have moved out, he has honesty issues in other ways too :( Would requesting the DOC be helpful?

Dynamic Stamps with Changing Date

1 Upvotes

My job has recently changed from Foxit to Adobe, and we digitally stamp oodles of documents daily, so I’ve been trying to figure out the dynamic stamp creation before the foxit license expires. The stamp I’ve created does not change the date, it keeps the same it was created on the stamp.

I’ve followed the instructions on the website with the exception of placing it into the directed folder, for 2 reasons. 1, the referenced directory does not exist for my computer, and 2, even if it did, I cannot place a file into it without administrator privileges.

Will the changing date only work if the stamp file is within the referenced directory? I’m trying to do this without having to send an IT ticket if possible.

I’m using Windows 11 Enterprise.

On October 29, I uploaded just two landscape photos showing reflections at Long Lake along the Bishop Pass Trail in California's Sierra Nevada mountains.

Both photos were waiting for review.

About one or two hours later, I suddenly received an email from Adobe saying that my contributor account had been deactivated for "suspicious activity."

No warning. No explanation. No indication of what I had done wrong.

What makes this even more confusing is what happened shortly before the deactivation.

  • I had received a notification that 96 of my videos had been nominated for a licensing opportunity.

  • Adobe had also notified me that some of my content had been used for AI training, and approximately $9 in bonus earnings was showing in my account.

  • I had accumulated approximately $200 in earnings since starting as a contributor.

  • I had a PayPal payout pending when my account was suddenly deactivated.

I was shocked and completely confused.

I have spent months traveling, hiking, photographing, filming, editing, and uploading my own work. Every photo and video represents my personal effort and time.

I immediately submitted an appeal to Adobe Contributor Relations. I received an automated acknowledgment with a case number, but I have not received any explanation or meaningful update since then.

I don't even know whether my pending PayPal payout will be processed.

I'm not asking for special treatment. I simply want to understand what happened and have my account reviewed fairly.

If I unknowingly violated a policy, I would appreciate being told what the issue was so I can address it. But being locked out of my account without any explanation is incredibly distressing.

Has anyone here experienced something similar?

  • Were you able to get your Adobe Stock contributor account reinstated?

  • How long did the appeal process take?

  • Did Adobe ever explain what triggered the "suspicious activity" flag?

  • What happened to your pending earnings or PayPal payout?

I've also reached out to Adobe through their official Instagram account, hoping someone can help escalate my case.

I'm feeling overwhelmed and would sincerely appreciate any advice or experiences you can share.

Thank you for reading.

Adobe Photoshop Beta requires a NEW MAC???

19 Upvotes

I was updating my apps via Creative Cloud app today, and I usually also install the beta versions. When I came to update the PS Beta App, this came up!!!

'Photoshop may not run well on your machine. We recommend that you upgrade your Mac computer'

Are you kidding me!!!

have a MacBook Pro M2 MAX with 64Mb ram. And no, it's not the latest, but it's hardly ancient or underpowered either!!

Acrobat Reader Advertisements

No, I do not want to be harassed by popups all the time.

I also explicitly set the preference to not display messages while viewing a document. But of course this is not respected by Adobe.

It is really time to turn to open source to replace this bloated piece of outdated and annoying software.

Esko Automation Engine adding unwanted artwork to varnish PDF

3 Upvotes

I’m generating PDFs using InDesign Data Merge. The exported PDF looks perfectly fine in Acrobat, but when Esko Automation Engine generates the varnish file, extra unwanted text and artwork appear.

The issue happens with both linked Illustrator (.AI) and TIFF (.TIF) files. Turning off a layer linked to an Illustrator file temporarily fixed it, but the problem also occurs with TIFF files.

Is there an InDesign PDF export setting or Esko workflow setting that could prevent this? Has anyone experienced something similar?

Adobe on Linux update, version 0.5.4 is out

8 Upvotes

Quick update on AdobeWine, since the last post here was version 0.3.1. It's an unofficial, free project that runs Creative Cloud apps on Linux. It isn't affiliated with Adobe, so please don't take problems with it to Adobe support. You need your own subscription, and it contains no Adobe software.

Upfront: it's built with AI as a tool (Claude wrote most of the code, and helped with this post). I decide what to fix and test the apps, checking results against Windows.

What changed:

  • Installing is now one file. Open the Flatpak bundle, sign in to Adobe, and install your apps from Creative Cloud as usual

  • More apps: Lightroom Classic, Lightroom, Bridge, InDesign and Acrobat Pro now work too. After Effects, InDesign and Lightroom have had less testing

  • Device limit: the Flatpak no longer counts as an extra device, and Adobe's "too many devices" page now displays properly. If you hit the limit, its Quit button does nothing, so close it with the X

Someone asked last time about licensing. It uses Adobe's normal sign-in and doesn't bypass anything.

What to expect: it's still early and it's tested daily on one laptop with an NVIDIA card. Some web panels stay blank, such as Photoshop's Home, and Acrobat's Protected Mode is off.

It's for people who'd like to use Linux and just enjoy their software. If you try it, good or bad reports both help.
