Can Adobe Illustrator match inner bevel effects of inDesign and Photoshop?

Can Adobe Illustrator match or simulate inner bevel effects of inDesign and Photoshop? If it is possible, please explain how to get a soft inner bevel on type or vector shape in Adobe Illustrator CS4 that can be set up to be identical (or, at least, very close) to the layer styles of PS and the type/fill/stroke/object effects of ID. So far, I have not been able to achieve the same look with 3D extrude and bevel in AI. I want a solid red object with a soft 16 point white-tint highlight and a soft 16 point black tint shadow. If it is not something that is possible with 3D extrude and bevel settings, this something that must or could be done manually with the gradient mesh tool?

I’ve vectorized everything except the 3D red portion.

  • Can anyone tell me if you can back save from CS6 to CS5 Illustrator, Indesign and Photoshop OK?

    Can anyone tell me if you can back save from CS6 to CS5 Illustrator, Indesign and Photoshop OK? Want to upgrade to CS6 but must I must still remain compatible with work. They are using CS5.

    To clarify your answer for Illustrator.  The option is not in the "Save As" dialog box.
    The correct answer is
    Open you CS6 Illustrator file.
    File>Save As 
    The Save As dialog box opens
    Type your file name (DIFFERENT THAN ORIGINAL PLEASE!) and the Save as Type is still going to be Adobe Illustrator (*.AI)   **This is where the above instructions threw me, as the Save as type drop down does not list anything about versions to save fo)
    Click Save
    Once you click Save, the Illustrator Options dialog box will come up.  The first option is titled Version and has a drop down menu.  Select the version of illustrator you want to save your file as here, then click ok.
    Your done.
    I strongly suggest you give this file a different name than your original CS6 Illustrator version as you may lose some parts of your design in the conversion.
    Hope this helps.  Enjoy!

  • Can Adobe Muse create menu systems in an InDesign document?

    Can Adobe Muse create menu systems in an InDesign document?

    Hi Golden Reuel,
    Since InDesign has limited capability of integrating HTML and Muse is all about HTML. I dont think you can create menu systems in InDesign.
    For Better Clarification I would suggest you to post the query on the Muse Community.

  • Can i install CS3 Indesign and Photoshop on mac OSX10.8.4?

    Can i install CS3 Indesign and Photoshop on mac OSX10.8.4? Or do I have to update and can I purchase updates from Adobe? If I can, how much are they?

    Yes, should be no problem.
    According to the box that came with my copy of CS3 the requirements are "PowerPC G4 or G5 or multicore Intel processor, Mac OSX 10.4.8 or above.
    I loaded it onto my new Mac running Mountain Lion with no problems at all and it runs perfectly. InDesign used to crash occasionally under Tiger but has never crashed under Mountain Lion.

  • Can't delete folder until I quit InDesign and Photoshop

    I'm sure this has been covered but I can't find it anywhere.
    I'm cleaning house; working in Windows Explorer on Windows 7. I look at files in InDesign CS5 and Photoshop CS5, close the files delete them but I can't delete the folder that contained them until I quit InDesign and Photoshop. I remember this from previous versions also.
    Is there a workaround?
    Thanks, Sidney

    I have that annoying problem too, have a look at this thread.  I haven't tried that fix because the trial doesn't work on deleting files, only copying and the website is terrible.

  • Adobe Indesign and Photoshop CS3 Freezing after trying to save file

    Hi
    I was using both Indesign and Photoshop yesterday with no trouble. Out the blue whenever I tried to either save a file or generally use any of the functionality within the File menu the dialogue box quickly appears then fades and the software freezes. Its doing this in both Indesign and Photoshop.
    The IT department logged on using their administrator info and both packages appear to work fine it just seems to be once I log in using my user account.  We have tried reseting preferences etc.
    Any help or advice would be welcomed.
    Thanks

    You have a stored invalid folder reference and since it can't be restored, the apsp crash on file dialogs. Have your IT department sift through the registry and clean out the relevant MRU sections.

  • Why won't Illustrator CS6 open in OSX 10.9 while Indesign and Photoshop will?

    I just purchase an iMac with OSX 10.9.4 and haven't installed Yosemite fearing software incompatibility with my existing CS6 Design and Web premium bundle. Acrobat, Indesign and Photoshop all open up and operate fine but Illustrator will not open. I have little other 3rd party ssoftware installed so far, only Billings and Olympus software. Any ideas? Don't want the $50 per month solution either. You know what that is.
    Thanks.

    Solution!!! I didn't notice an error message beneath the numerous open windows on my desktop. It said, "you need to install Java (something-something) in order to use Illustrator, would you like to install it?" Obviously, I did and the moment the download and installation was complete, Illustrator opened itself, probably as a leftover command.
    Hope that helps someone.

  • InDesign and Photoshop Deleted, can't get them back.

    I had the Creative Cloud Trial, I then deleted the applications InDesign and Photoshop so I could purchase the real version. My Adobe Application Manager says these applications are up to date, but they are not on my computer. How do  I get these applications back on my computer?

  • What is going on with the quick keys in CC? Illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop?

    What is going on with the quick keys in CC? Illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop? The delete key only works when it wants to as well? We (Co-Workers) all use our shortcut keys A LOT and these will sometimes work and sometimes don't work. It only started when we downloaded the new CC. What's going on??

    The Arial Font works on the MacBook Pro, but it is not listed on the iMac.
    By not listed, do you mean it doesn't show up in the font lists of apps you're using, or it literally isn't on the hard drive?
    Look in the /Library/Fonts/ folder. That's the Library from the root of the drive, not in the System folder or your user account. Is Arial.ttf actually missing?

  • Can Adobe Illustrator 5.5 work on Mac OS9 or OSX?

    I have Adobe Illustrator 5.5 and need to read some files that were created using this program. However I am uncertain whether this program can be installed on my iMac OSX (10.1.5) or on the OS 9 that is also on this iMac.  Can anyone help?

    Nobody has Illustrator CS5.5 yet. I believe Illustrator was not upgraded, so it may still be branded as CS5. So I will assume you are using Illustrator 5.5 from the ’90s. My guess is it will run on Mac OS 9. It may run in older OS-X versions, but I would bet against it.
    Current versions of Illustrator can read your old 5.5 files. You can install a 30 day fully functional demo of the current version to test or convert them.

  • Wish to move auto cad drawing to adobe illustrator. Wish to take blue print and layer it for viewing.

    We have our drawings in auto cad and need to move them to adobe illustrator  and layer the drawing  for viewing on a web site.

    You can import certain versions of DXF/DXW files into Illustrator and also edit them.
    If this can be done efficiently depends on the nature of the files (number of paths etc.)
    You could download a trial version and try it on your files.
