Who uses Design Premium?
Graphic designers use Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Design Premium to design and develop content
for a wide range of media, including print, web, interactive, and mobile devices.
Graphic designers are versatile professionals who apply their visual communication skills to a
rapidly expanding array of projects. With the explosion of new media and devices, from the
Internet to smartphones, tablets, e-readers, and Internet-enabled televisions, designers face
tremendous pressure to continually adopt new tools and learn new techniques to efficiently and
consistently deliver high-impact content across a wide variety of media. Design Premium eases
these challenges by providing a set of integrated tools for editing images, creating vector graphics,
laying out print and web pages, authoring digital publications such as digital magazines and
eBooks, crafting interactive designs, delivering content for mobile devices, and more.
Designers also face obstacles to preserving the integrity of their designs when collaborating with
technical colleagues such as developers. Communicating design intent to web, interactive, and
application developers can be challenging—designers and developers speak different languages,
and important nuances of designers’ vision can be lost in translation. Design Premium enables
designers to express their vision directly using robust tools that draw on their existing skills and
don’t require them to master writing code. Now designers can preserve the quality and integrity of
their designs much further into the development process, handing off content without fear that the
final result will look very different from what they envisioned. And for some types of projects,
designers can even finish the work themselves.

Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Design Premium What’s New
Top new benets in Design Premium
Improved support for HTML5 and CSS3 in Dreamweaver CS5.5
Enhancements to Dreamweaver CS5.5 coding tools and workflows enable you to work more efficiently
to produce websites based on HTML5 and CSS3 specifications. Code hinting and code completion,
updated Live View, and updates to the CSS panel help you design and develop websites that look
outstanding and function well whether viewed on a desktop computer, tablet, or smartphone.
• HTML5andCSS3codehintingandcodecompletion.Now you can quickly write code that
meets the very latest web specications thanks to rich HTML5 and CSS3 code hinting, code
completion, and in-context prompts for required values for new CSS3 properties. Code hinting
for some vendor-specic rules, such as -webkit, -moz, and -o, is included for full browser support.
• UpdatedLiveView.Live View in Dreamweaver CS5.5 supports popular CSS3 aributes such as
border-radius (rounded corners). You can render the border-radius property, as well as the
transform and transition properties, on most elements in Live View.
• EnhancedCSSpanel.e updated CSS panel supports editing of new CSS3 properties and
enables you to quickly parse and edit complex sets of styles. New interface elements simplify
adding CSS3 properties such as border-radius.
Applying popular CSS3 aributes such as the border-radius property for rounded corners is easy in Dreamweaver CS5.5.
On devices such as smartphones with limited processing power, objects with properties dened in CSS load faster than
placed images.
Multiscreen Preview in Dreamweaver CS5.5
Dreamweaver CS5.5 provides tools for rapidly adapting existing websites and applications for
multiple devices using the same code base. Enhancements to the Multiscreen Preview panel
enable you to quickly and easily preview your designs for smartphones, tablets, and desktop
screens side by side, and run your code in real time. You can also preview custom screen sizes and
styles for each device.
The Multiscreen Preview panel helps you create CSS media queries and display separate style
sheets for each device. Design View has been updated to read your media queries. As you resize
Design View, the corresponding media query is applied, enabling you to switch between styles in
real time. Simply resize Design View for the desired device, and then craft your design. The new
Advanced Media Query Manager provides a robust way to generate and apply multiple media
queries to a page or a site-wide media query file.

New templates, including those for AIR for Android, are available from the New From Template dialog box in Flash
Professional CS5.5.
Greater precision and more creative options for interaction design in
Flash Catalyst CS5.5
Preparing content that displays optimally on screens of different sizes and resolutions is a continual
challenge for designers. Flash Catalyst now enables you to deliver layouts that specify how objects
respond when the application window is resized. Using on-object controls, you can specify how
each object will move or stretch, and then preview the results by resizing the artboard directly
within Flash Catalyst.
For designers who want to choreograph their own transitions between states, new animation options
such as transformation point controls, auto-reverse, and font sizes within filter effects provide precise
control. You can also save and reapply your custom transitions across effects and objects.

Increased efficiency for delivering more accessible publications in
InDesign CS5.5
Use enhanced features in InDesign CS5.5 and Acrobat X Pro to help you deliver publications that
meet Section 508 and WCAG 2.0 standards and improve accessibility for people with disabilities. In
InDesign, apply features such as high-contrast colors and large-type display more easily, and more
easily add, edit, and view alt text attributes associated with an image or object. For example, instead
of creating new alt text, use alt text added to an image in Adobe Bridge or attached to an object
imported from Microsoft Word. Also use the new Object Export Options dialog box to more easily
add alt text directly in InDesign. When you’ve completed the accessible layout in InDesign, export it
in PDF and then check, adjust, and validate it in Acrobat X Pro.
You can map styles to HTML, EPUB, or
PDF tags in the Export Tagging pane of
the Paragraph Style Options and
Character Style Options dialog boxes.
ough the tags don't aect the

to compromise their creative vision. With CS5 Design Premium, designers can work on interactive
content and media-rich projects themselves using familiar tools, skills, and design processes—and
without touching a line of code.
• InteractivecontentwithFlashCatalyst.Built specically for designers, Flash Catalyst enables

• Delivercrispgraphicsforweb,interactive,andmobiledesignsinIllustrator.Create resolution-
independent vector graphics that appear sharp in Dreamweaver, Flash Catalyst, Flash Profes-
sional, and Fireworks—and on virtually any screen. With Illustrator, you can create clean, crisp
artwork that aligns accurately on pixels, leing you condently take your artwork to PNG, JPG,
GIF, or other raster formats. Precise controls streamline artwork creation for the web by auto-
matically correcting drawn artwork to make sure it aligns to the pixel grid, eliminating blurred
edges and “split pixel” lines. Text anti-aliasing options provide exact control over the appearance
of dierent fonts and type sizes, and each text frame can have its own anti-aliasing seing for
optimal readability.
• SuperiortextlayoutandtypographyinFlashProfessional.Now your typography can look as
good onscreen as in print with a text engine in Flash Professional that preserves the type you
create in InDesign. When you hand o InDesign pages to Flash Professional CS5, the text ows
into threaded text frames, making it easy to do last-minute edits. Also enjoy advanced typo-
graphic control directly within Flash Professional CS5, including advanced text styling and
advanced text-layout control.
