Create High-Res PDFs with Adobe Bridge

Friday, January 14th, 2011

Did you know that you could create high resolution PDF documents with Adobe Bridge? You can do that in Bridge CS4 and CS5.

Using the Adobe Output Module, you can create Adobe PDF contact sheets and presentations in Adobe Bridge.

And the best thing is, it is very easy to do!

The important bit is, you need to go to the Output Workspace in Bridge. The workspaces appear in the top right corner of Bridge interface. Click on Output to access Output Module.

Adobe Bridge displays the Output panel at the right side of the window and the Folders panel at the left. The Content panel with your selected photos appears at the bottom of the window, and the Preview panel appears in the middle.

So let’s have a look at this video that I have created:

Update your Ps, Lr, Br

Tuesday, January 11th, 2011

Do you know how to check if you are running the latest version of your Adobe application? Do you know how to check which one is the latest update for your Photoshop or Bridge or Lightroom?

The topic seems to be very simple but I meet many people who don’t think about that or maybe don’t even know how to do it and this is a crucial topic. Make sure your software is kept to date!

For this reason I recorded a video for you that shows how to check all that and make sure you have the latest updates installed – remember they’re all Free!

I hope you will find the video useful and will enjoy it.
