Software Focus: Adobe's Device Central

Adobe's Device Central

Adobe Device Central ties into most of their software to assist designers. It displays your project on each of a huge library of mobile devices and shows how it will interact with that item's controls. It is included in nearly all of Adobe's Creative Suite offerings and is utilized by the following Adobe products since CS3:

• Photoshop
• Illustrator®
• Flash® Professional
• Dreamweaver®
• Premiere® Pro
• After Effects®

There will be more to the evening's program. Check later for more.
