Not sure why you need to doubt my statement--but, let's see... I use on a regular basis: Photoshop Lightroom InDesign (with DPS) InCopy (currently I purchase separately, but it will be the new ACC release) Dreamweaver Edge Animate/Services Premiere Pro/Encore Media Encoder After Effects And all of the TCS4 programs (FrameMaker, Acrobat, Captivate, Illustrator, RoboHelp, Presenter) LiveCycle Designer (not included with Acrobat anymore, but I upgraded separately)
Others I use fairly often: Audition Prelude SpeedGrade Muse Although I downloaded TCS4 as a direct purchase, I also subscribed to it in order to get the latest/greatest updates to Captivate. Otherwise, the updates were not available to me until an official update came out (whatever it will be called: TCS4.5 or TCS5). (Not sure if Maxwell's post was due to my post, but I never implied that TCS4 was ONLY subscription based. It is just the subscriptions get updates as soon as they are released and at no additional cost. I needed that for Captivate, not Frame.)
