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 specications 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 aributes 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.

Expanded platform and device support in Flash Professional CS5.5

Flash Professional CS5.5 makes it easier to reach audiences on the latest Flash Platform runtimes,

including Flash Player 10.2 and Adobe AIR 2.6; you can also reach audiences on Android™,

BlackBerry, iOS,webOS, and Adobe Digital Home devices.

• Delivertodesktopcomputers.Take advantage of the ubiquity of Adobe Flash Player within

browsers and of Adobe AIR® on desktops to deliver content that displays more consistently across

operating systems and browsers.

• Delivertomobiledevices.Deliver content that plays back on millions of devices worldwide, and

reach audiences on smartphones that run Android and webOS. Use the Adobe AIR for iOS

Support tool, included with Flash Professional CS5.5, to compile ActionScript® bytecode into

native iPhone application code, which can be distributed via the iTunes store.

• Delivertotablets.Produce immersive content optimized for tablet devices. Take advantage of

touch input and gesture-based actions that enhance readers’ experience.

• DelivertoInternet-enabledtelevisions.Extend the reach of your content with immersive

experiences and applications that run on Adobe AIR 2.5 and Adobe Digital Home.

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.

Enhanced eBook authoring in InDesign CS5.5

As eBook reading devices grow ever more sophisticated, InDesign lets designers keep pace. Create

visually compelling eBooks that take advantage of advanced capabilities in devices such as the

Apple iPad, Sony Reader, and Barnes & Noble nook.

• TransformtheeBookreadingexperiencewithcompellingvideoandaudio—whetherit’sa

soundtrack in a children’s book, a virtual-walkthrough video in a travel guide, or contemporary

applications that support HTML5 video and audio tags.

• DelivereBookswithimagesthatresizeautomaticallytolookcrisponawidevarietyofscreens.

Set conversion options for the entire document or for individual images when you export to

EPUB format. You can also rasterize InDesign shapes, text frames, placed graphics, and groups

created in InDesign so that they export as dynamically resizing images.

To make images resize

automatically to t dierence

device screens, use the Object

Export Options dialog box in

InDesign. Select Custom

Conversion, and then choose

Relative To Page Width from the

Size menu. (If you don’t want the

to dene the order in which they’ll export—without rearranging your InDesign layout.

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

appearance of the layout in InDesign

(upper far right, in color), they're

mapped to the correct specications

when you export HTML, EPUB, or PDF

documents for display in Adobe Digital

Editions (upper right, in black and white).

Drag content from your

InDesign layout (right)—

including images, threaded text,

or separate text blocks such as

captions and block quotes—

into the Articles panel (above).

en drag them so that they

If you’re considering upgrading to CS5.5 Design Premium, remember that you’ll benefit from all the

new features described above, as well as all the new features in CS5 Design Premium. They include:

Features for exploring new creative realms

Discover powerful new creative tools in Photoshop and Illustrator for crafting artwork that stands

out in a wide range of media.

• RealisticpaintingeectswithPhotoshopExtended.New tools enable you to paint in much the

same way you would using real-world brushes and paints. With a new Mixer Brush tool, new

bristle qualities, and new ways to blend colors, Photoshop Extended oers virtually endless

possibilities for creating outstanding expressive eects, from enhancing photographic images in

unusual ways to painting directly on a blank canvas.

• FluidvectorpaintingwithIllustrator.Enjoy the editability and exibility of vectors along with

the experience and expressiveness of painting in natural media. Paint freely with the vector-

based Bristle Brush to produce lifelike brush strokes. Each brush stroke creates a path that can be

window shows you how the Bristle Brush and its brush stroke will look.

• Easy3DextrusionswithAdobeRepousséinPhotoshopExtended.Repoussé is an ancient

metalworking technique for embossing artwork on the surface of metals such as gold, silver,

copper, tin, and bronze. Inspired by this technique, Photoshop Extended oers a powerful new

Repoussé feature for creating aention-grabbing 3D content for print or interactive content,

• SimpliedobjectselectionandeditinginInDesign.Whether you’re designing a document that

will be printed, viewed onscreen, or both, everything from aligning and distributing space

between objects to adjusting corner eects is faster and easier in InDesign. Perform multiple

transformations with a single tool, adjust the white space between objects, create corner eects

directly on a frame, and create grids by simply pressing arrow keys to add columns and rows.

• MultiplepagesizesinasingleInDesigndocument.Streamline design and production of

projects with multiple page sizes by including dierent page sizes in a single InDesign document.

Control panel. Easily share design assets by applying the same master page to dierent-sized

layouts while controlling the placement of master elements in each individual layout.

• MoreecientCSS-baseddesignswithDreamweaver.If you’re an aspiring or novice web

designer who prefers designing pages to writing code, you’ll appreciate CSS Inspect. CSS Inspect

lets you lay out web pages based on Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) more easily—without diving

into code or using additional soware. For designers who are new to web design or who want to

deepen their knowledge of CSS, CSS Inspect makes it much easier to learn about and work with

CSS-based web pages.

•ConvenientvisualbrowsingandassethandlingwithAdobeMiniBridge.Take advantage of a

customizable panel in Photoshop Extended and InDesign to sort, lter, and drag les directly into

your artwork or layout without ever leaving your design soware.

Features for extending the reach of your designs to digital media without writing code

When designers collaborate with developers to produce interactive content, they sometimes have

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

you to create interactive content without writing code. Transform artwork created in Photoshop,

Illustrator, or Fireworks into high-quality interactive content. Design simple projects, such as an

interactive portfolio or product brochure, that you can complete yourself in SWF format. Or

tackle more complex projects such as a user interface for a web application built in collaboration

with a developer.

• DynamicdigitaldocumentswithInDesign.Add aention-grabbing interactivity, animation,

video, and sound to your digital documents and presentations in your familiar design soware.

InDesign CS5 includes support for FLV video and MP3 audio les, as well as dozens of motion

presets that make it easy to create animations. Export a document or presentation from InDesign

to SWF format for playback in Adobe Flash Player or a web browser. Or export a document as an

interactive PDF le, complete with video and sound. Five panels introduced in InDesign CS5

provide intuitive controls that enable you to create a wealth of dazzling eects.

• 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 dierent fonts and type sizes, and each text frame can have its own anti-aliasing seing 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.
