Hi, all. I'll respect the requests and keep my comments off-line (other than this last one) But only until after my belief/speculation/prediction comes true: when - not if - FrameMaker upgrades/licensing is foisted on us as subscription model, it will be fair game again. This will be relativel

David, it seems logical to me: if the CC licence is for version >6, and your CS version is 6, flies created with the cloud version won't be able to be opened with your local version. Just like you cannot open FM version 10 files in FM version 9. Grant On 7/17/2013 4:52 AM, David Creamer wro

Read my note again. I didn't say CS6 would stop working. I said that files created in the CC version may not always be backward compatible with CS6. Right now, I don't know if CC has introduced any features that create files that aren't backward compatible, but each new edition of Photoshop te

If you already own a perpetual license version, you don't have to stop using it. But if you start out as a renter, you do. And if you own a perpetual license, such as CS6, and then rent CC as your new upgrade path, when you stop paying, there's a good chance that your current files will no long

I really don't understand this reasoning that if you can't update your software every year or whatever you have to stop using it. I never upgrade my tools unless there's a compelling reason to do so. FrameMaker upgrades in particular have been one step forward, two steps back, since version 8. Ado

Steve, I'm with you. I used to be a huge Adobe fan. I have loved and praised Adobe software far and wide. It's not cheap, but it is very capable and works very well. Now, I find myself hating Adobe. I'm not just disappointed with the CC subscription model, I'm fuming. I complain about it every
