Customising leaflets - which Adobe product is best?

Hi
We have around 250 leaflets that we need to customise quickly for around 100 customers. The customisations are straightforward - placing a logo (jpeg) at the top and some text at the end.
The leaflets themselves are not complicated and follow a standard 2-column design mainly text with two or three illustrations.
I'm not a developer and we're looking for an off-the-shelf solution that is easy to use.
I need some advice on which Adobe product is best for us.
Thanks!

For the time spent learning how to use Illustrator and the cost of it you could probably hire a professional.
If you want to do it yourself for a small company, avoid Adobe all together unless you want to use their 30 day trails - google it for info.

And as above, Publisher and Expression design can be OK - generally it's what you do with the software not the software itself.

I want to scan typed documents to Word for Mac and change them. Which Adobe product is best for this? This is not my area of expertise. Thank you.

Can someone tell me which Adobe product to use? I'm compiling a manuscript of poems and short stories for a friend, which are typed and handwritten and I need to edit them. Thank you.

Scanning to Word won't do what you want.
You see, a scan of a page is just like a photograph of it. You have photos of letters and stuff, but no actual letters. There is a special process called "optical character recognition" (OCR) which analyses the picture in detail, and decides - hey that pattern of dots looks like it might be a letter A - and that would could be an S... it is difficult and time consuming but if the original is clear then you can get a lot of text text with the need only for careful proof reading.
Check the software which came with the scanner first. It may well offer options for OCR. Yes, Adobe Acrobat Pro can do this, but you have unnecessary complication, because you'll then need to get the text out from Acrobat to begin the tedious process of typesetting each page. To be honest, you might find retyping everything the quickest and most reliable approach. If you aren't already experienced in dealing with long documents in Word you are in for a long haul. Back up a lot, so you don't lose everything due to a mistake.
(I'm assuming you don't want a "facsimile" - a warts-and-all exact copy of each original page, as typed and scribbled, with no changes at all - that would be a different story).

Which Adobe product is best for me?

My wife and I are in the travel business. I like to make 8½ x 11 flyers for our cruise promotions. I start with a blank page and add images and text to make a composite, and then save it off in pdf. I've been using an old XP version of Microsoft Picture It! running in XP Mode on Windows 7. I need to upgrade to something more modern that will handle eps files, etc. I'm not a graphic designer, so the Adobe product line is confusing for me. So which product would be best for me, the cheaper the better? Thanks

Hi quoman,
It sounds like you're asking how to add security to a PDF file. You'll need Acrobat Pro or Standard to do that. If you don't have Acrobat, you may try it for free for 30 days. See www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html for more information.

Is it still possible to attach sticky notes to a pdf file? Which Adobe product will enable this?

Both Acrobat and Reader 10/11 can, and previous versions of Reader can if the document is enabled to allow it. Mobile versions of Reader can too.

Which Adobe product should I use ?

Hi!
I'm going to generate, merge and put a waterstamp on PDF's. I want to do that from C# code on a 64-bit server. There is no need for a GUI.

Hi Wiggur!!
All you said is possilbe by creating Actions in Acrobat X. That will be a silent process and will do everything automatically. Installation of Acrobat on servers depends on the license that you purchase. But certainly you can do that. That will be a silent process and you can call those actions by any programming language, i guess!

Which Adobe product do I need to be able to measure off square footage on construction drawings

Acrobat has a measuring tool; you can download a fully functional trial from https://www.acrobat.com/free-trial-download.html
Note: you cannot "upgrade" Reader to Acrobat; they are two different products.

Interactive text application: Which Adobe product would be most appropriate?

Hello All,
I will be creating an interactive, online text application and I would like to know which of the Adobe (or any other) products you think is best suited for this project. Your input is greatly appreciated. Here is a description of the final product:
The initial interactive document will have about 200 pages with about 350 words per page (more pages will be added weekly). There will be a variety of fonts used in this document (some 3d text, some flat text, etc.)Thirty percent of the words will glow on the page (at runtime) and upon mouseover the text that makes up these words will expand (vertically and horizontally). Upon click images and movies with sound (animations and videos) will pop up (over the text document) and play. Sometimes a click on a word will change the text in the rest of the document (introduce new fonts, colors and font sizes).
Which product would best accomplish this? Flash, AfterEffects or something else?
Thanks much!

Which Adobe product?

Hi, I run a website www.biblestudiesonline.org.uk which offers original Biblical commentary for most New Tesament verses. I want to create an app which I can embed on the homepage of my site (which will soon be using HTML5).
The app should retrieve (and display on the same page) data from a database when certain keywords are inserted into a text field. For example, if a user types 'Matt 5:23', 'Matthew 5.23' 'Mat 5v23' or other such combinations, I want the app to display the content relevant to the twenty third verse of the fifth chapter of the Gospel of Matthew on my homepage.
I also want the app to work across all platforms.
Is there an ADOBE product that will let me build this (I have almost no developer skills?)
OR does ADOBE have a commercial divsion, or if not (dare I say it) does anyone know of another company that could provide me with an estimated price for delivering such an app? I'd probably have to save a lot of my dimes for a while...

Hi!

Premier Pro And After Effect are 2 Adobe software are mainly for the Video edting and composting. Premier Pro is mainly for for Video Editing and After Effect can used for composting.

Which Adobe Product for a Photographer just getting started.

I am a new user but have been a Photographer for years. Shooting Fine Art landscapes and Enviromental Portrraits. I have purchsed Elements 11 and have Lightroom 4.4. Which of these is best to start with or should i try something else?
Regards
Mike

Mike,
Welcome to the forum.
While there is cross-over, between LR and PsE (assume that you mean Photoshop Elements 11), there are also differences.
For just "processing" Images, LR will likely do what you want. If, however, you need to go beyond that processing, then PsE steps up, with more involved "correction," and some fairly sophisticated compositing.
For more info on each program, each has very active forums, and users will be happy to help you out.
Somewhere, I have seen a chart with the capabilities of Ps (full version), PsE and LR, but cannot find my bookmark now.
Good luck,
Hunt

Which Adobe Product For Videos Editing

Hi,
I have always been a huge fan of adobe but currently I am in a bad situation and I need your suggestion.
I am now put incharge of the video editing department, where our company make videos and send it to clients. It's a multinational company so imagine the professional customer.
The Videos will include Power Point presentation capture with Audio and a huge amount of Video Camera movies.
Our Company Manager suggesting Camtasia, Sony but I heard Adobe has a very good product as well.
Kindly suggest what Adobe Product and Version can support my requirement and also is it better and easy to operate than the above two products.
Thanks...
Waiting for your honest replies...

@Smith, John and Hunt.
Thanks alot, I was not expecting such a comprehensive and awesome replies.
Thanks alot..
Received a call from Manager and we will be using Two Technologies :), PowerPoint Capture will be done by Camtasia as we are already using it and have recently upgraded from 6 to 7.
@John I am abit confused on your last statement. Can you please explain it abit.
Let me clarify more my requirements:
We will be shooting on a 720P Camera or Cam Corders and I guess it's HD.
We will be conducting Interviews and more Class room trainings on a White Board.
We will capture that and remove the noisy or unwanted part and then distribute it online as well as on CD's or DVD's.
I guess it's pretty much simple.
So please give me your Final suggestions:
Director or Premiere Pro + Encore or Premiere Elements.

Which Adobe product should be use to create interactive presentations?

We have an interactive presentation that we developed for a client a few years ago in Flash. The client is concerned that Jobs has hurt the future of Flash as a development tool. Is there another Adobe product that we should switch to or is Flash still the premier product? Note: I need something sophisticated enough to do complex animations (many moving parts with masks). Play back has to look good with possible auto and video intergration. At the moment mobile/tablet is not an issue but may be desired in the future.

Two primary considerations, IMO.
1. If the product is already developed in Flash, and still works fine for all target devices, and maybe just occasional/simple updates are needed here and there..
2. If mobile delivery of the product is not at all required.
Then stick with Flash.
BUT if mobile is going to be a targeted platform, or the product needs a significant revision, then consider another approach.
Tools like Adobe Captivate, Articulate Storyline, and Trivantis Lectora are solid tools for creating HTML5 (mobile-compatible) content...but since HTML5 support and the spec itself are still evolving, there are certainly more limitations on animation, interactivity, etc.
So the longer you can hold out updating the product to HTML5, using whatever tool you prefer, the better...but on the other hand, balance that against the efforts and updates you put into a Flash-based project that's likely going to have a limited future.
