PS – I removed Version Cue software as some forums recommend. Very disappointed in the Mac OS X (10.5….) and Adobe software this time. I have kept the original installation of InDesign CS3 (5.0) and not upgraded to 5.2 just incase it breaks again……Now I have to find a solution for the Photoshop CS3 bug that means my Xerox Phaser printer prints gobbledygook. InDesign CS3 now works completely……hopefully this info may help someone else. In the Cleaning section of Onyx I selected ‘Fonts’ and checked the boxes ‘System and Users’ and ‘Adobe Systems’ – clicked on the execute button and restarted. basically the software could not be used (No problems at all on my Intel Macbook – only on PPC machine). After wasting a day searching online forums and removing INDCS3 software and reinstalling – I realised it was very similar to a problem that I previously had with Quark 7 with the OpenType font cache, (fixed using OpenType Font Cache Cleaner at the time – this problem has now been fixed by installing Leopard) which would result in numerous crashes – even more then the normal Quark.Īll previous version of IND were as solid as a rock on my system, but with Leopard INDCS3 was crashing on opening, saving, exporting, relinking images etc. Onyx (1.9.3) has been the only solution that has worked for me (Leopard 10.5.2 – G5 PPC dual 2GHZ). What alternatives save for old versions of Adobe suite are out there?

For this reason, emphasis is laid upon evaluating the knowledge of applied skills gained through real work experience, rather than theoretical knowledge.

I’m tired of this dumbing down nonsense Adobe has subjected us to since Photoshop 7 (or even 5.5 perhaps). The Adobe InDesign CS3 Test (Mac Version) has been specifically designed to enable employers and recruiters to identify potential hires by evaluating working skills and job readiness. I’m not going to buy an Adobe product again, unless I’m 100% sure everything works like it should. Money right down the toilet – buying CS3 is like buying a car with no tires, grinding along on the rims. Indesign is so unstable it shouldn’t be out of beta testing. Constant patching and updates are proof of this. I’m sure the contract offered Macromadness stated this but IMO is a step backwards.ĬS3 is an unfinished product rushed to release. Instead of being a help the UI is something I’m fighting on a daily basis.īrushes in Photoshop are sluggish and almost impossible to work with.

Now, Adobe are implementing the inferior Macromedia UI making Illustrator terribly illogical and a drag to get around. The macromedia product always sucked, especially the User Interfaces. I find CS3 to be the worst release altogether.Įverything from the install onwards is just horrible.
