DW CS3 and DW CS3 with CSS

Hello and thanks in advance for your input. Years ago I
taught myself GoLive and am now making the change to Dreamweaver
CS3. I purchased it before CS4 was released so will have to upgrade
later. My question is this: I signed up for the Lynda.com online
classes to learn CS3 and notice that there are two different
tutorial categories, CS3 dated 4-07 and CS3 with CSS dated 3-08.
Are these two different programs? I purchased the design premium
suite and it lists Dreamweaver as CS3 and does not mention "with
CSS" in the title. I am not sure which tutorial program to use to
begin building my website and because it's Sunday they are not open
today. I am anxious to get started today, so would greatly
appreciate your insight. Thanks very much.

Thanks for your reply.
Yes, they are two different tutorials and from what you
mention, I am assuming that the more recent tutorial simply focuses
on utilizing CSS to build the site more effectively than what is
probably taught with the first tutorial. From what you said, it
seems like I should first take the CSS tutorial to get the
foundation of my site as uniform as possible and then perhaps go
back and study the basic DW CS3 tutorial to help fill in the gaps.
The reason why I am making such a big deal with asking is
because I know the laying of the foundation on a site going in is
so important. Each tutorial is about 11 hours, so I just wanted to
spend my time efficiently. Thanks for the suggestion of going the
CSS route first.

  • Editing a Web Photo Album Created With Dreamweaver CS3 and Fireworks CS3

    I created a web photo album with DW CS3 and FW CS3. I want to
    add and delete some of the photos in the collection. So far, the
    only way I have been able to do this is to recreate the whole thing
    from scratch with all the correct pictures in the target folder. Is
    there an easier way?

    I could be wrong (we only test Adobe widgets for the quality
    of their output
    code, not for features, or lack of features) but recreation,
    as Patty said,
    might be the only way. If you have a development budget, you
    might want to
    take a look at some commercial tools that would have the
    features and
    capabilities you want or need.

  • PS cs3 and Illustrator cs3 won't shut down

    I have these apps intalled on two other win 7 x64 computers with
    out any problem but on this win 7 x64 system both ps cs3 and illustrator cs3  hang up when I try to close them. It is a little intermittent on illustrator and at least once it has closed properly but most of the time it takes about 2-5 mins to shut down or it won't shut down at all.
    Photoshop is worse and always either takes 3-5 mins if it does shut down but in most cases it will not shut down and I have to force quit the application. Any suggestions please.

    Security settings for the Adobe licensing service or something liek that, possibly Version Cue! Run as admin to diagnose, then manually configure the services...

  • I have CC Indesign CS6, but client has CS3 and wants CS3 files.

    I have CC Indesign CS6, but client has CS3 and wants CS3 files. Can I access earlier versions through CC to do the 'downsave' thing? Any workarounds?

    You're a bit of a bind.
    To save backwards you need to File>Export and choose IDML
    But you will need to find someone with InDesign CS4 or CS5 as that is the versions that will allow to File>Export and choose INX.
    INX is the only version that can be opened in CS3.
    To be clear - the client should really update to the same version as you - as with each version the text engines are different, so there will be different line endings and perhaps even overset text depending on the layouts etc.
    Plus any new feature in CS6 that was not in Cs5.5 or earlier versions will be stripped out - and going back to CS3 there are a few things which could alter the layout significantly.
    I suggest the client upgrade to the latest version. Or if you can find a CS3 version online to purchase for yourself - either way - you should both work on the same version of the software.

  • How do I get Photoshop CS3 and Bridge CS3 to show and open camerea RAW files?

    I am not able to see or open Raw files from my Canon 40D in either Photoshop CS3 or Bridge CS3. At first I was able to open RAWS in Photoshop and then I followed directions on the internet at how to manually replace a Camera Raw Plugin so I could open it in Bridge and now neither of the apps work with RAW. In photoshop It says that the file is not supported.
    I looked up what plug in I needed and it said 4.2 for a Canon 40 D. I also followed the instructions in the read me file that was with the plugin download. No results from it. I even tried to switch it back to the old plug in to see if I could atleast get back the capiblility of opening it in Photoshop even though bridge was not working...still can't open it in either. What am I missing?

    You should install Camera Raw 4.6.
    Visit this page and follow the instructions carefully:

  • Version Cue CS3 and PSE 4 with Adobe Bridge

    will Version Cue on CS3 work with PSE4 and Adobe Bridge and if possible, please direct me to "how to set it up." Desperate to exchange .psd files with another user in another town.

    I have no answers to Jon's questions - Iam interested in the answers, too!
    ... and I have another question, which might fit into this topic:
    I own CS 4 (DP & PP) for Mac and want to install the version cue server on a PC(-Server).
    Do I really have to buy a PC-Version of the suite to get that done?
    The Tutorial says its possible and legal to install the version cue server on a different computer, which is quite logical.
    But does it really need to be the same OS? I searched all the DVD's but did not find any-PC-thing at all ...
    Thanks in advance for any (reasonable) answer(s).

  • Problems with uninstalling cs3 and installing cs3 again

    Hi all,
    I hope someone can help me with this. I have uninstalled cs3 because the
    computer prompts me that my activation has stopped working. So as I began to
    install my cs3 design premium, the computer prompts me to insert my cd for
    my design premium. That is strage as I have already insertted my cd. So as I
    click on OK several times(they keep on prmpting me to insert my cd again.
    After I clicked on (most probably 20 ~ 30 times), the installer said I have
    not successfully installed any of the applications I have selected. Why so?
    I suspect I have not uninstalled cleanly. I have uninstalled from the
    add/remove components from the windows. Is there anyway to solve this
    problem? What am I going to do now??
    Disappointed.

  • Basic questions about word spacing and vertical alignment with CSS

    I'm sill very new to Dreamweaver and web page designing. I've
    read the entire manual SC3, one book, and starting another but I
    have almost 0 practice.
    Q1. so far I haven't been able to produce the effect of the
    Word Spacing property. I tried all kinds of tests and I don't know
    in what scenario this effect will show. Can someone give me a
    simple example that shows the effect of this CSS property.
    Q2. Vertical Alignment: this works well with images inserted
    into text but I also expected this to work with text against other
    text. For example I typed TEST© and assigned a different SCC
    style to the © so that I can make it smaller and put it up
    with the Vertical Alignment property. Surprisingly this propery
    didn't produce any effect. How is htis suppose to be done?

    > This is some text. This is some text.
    You forgot to wrap your text in <p> tags so the style
    rule you created
    doesn't apply.

  • Problems with CS3 and Leopard

    Having a bit of a nightmare with Indesign and Photoshop CS3 since upgrading to Leopard. Running a Dual 2.5 GHz PowerPC G5 With 2GB DDR SDRAM. Anyone else having problems?

    Below is the Adobe Marketing Line (copied verbatim). It's what I was told by Adobe Sales and what I read at Adobe.com, FAQ, before buying CS3 in October 07. Imagine my surprise when I discovered all of the issues with CS3 and Leopard, even after the update to Acrobat 8.1.2 Professional which promised full compatibility (see chart at bottom).
    Apple and Adobe... ARGH.
    Oh yes, for all of the new suckers out there who are about to buy CS3 for their new Macs, the exact same FAQ is at Adobe.com, even now, Thursday, 12 Jun 2008.
    ADOBE CREATIVE SUTIE 3 Frequently Asked Questions
    Support for Mac OS X Leopard
    Q. Is Mac OS X Leopard (v10.5) important to Creative Suite 3 customers?
    A. Yes, Mac OS X Leopardthe latest version of Apples operating systemdelivers an elegant,
    productive new computing experience for creative professionals. Adobe and Apple have been
    collaborating closely for months to ensure that Adobe Creative Suite® 3 applications can run
    smoothly and reliably on Mac OS X Leopard. We are proud to support this impressive new
    operating system, and to ensure that our creative customers can take full advantage of the
    performance and value of using Creative Suite 3 applications and Mac OS X Leopard on
    Intel-based and PowerPC Macs.
    Q. Are Adobe Creative Suite 3 applications compatible with Mac OS X Leopard (v10.5)? If
    some are not fully compatible today, when will they be compatible?
    A. Thanks to close collaboration between Adobe and Apple, most of the CS3 applications and associated technologies, such as Adobe Bridge CS3, Version Cue CS3, and Device Central CS3, are compatible with Mac OS X Leopard without requiring additional updates. However, the following CS3 applications will require updates for full compatibility with Leopard: Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional and our professional video applications, including Adobe Premiere Pro CS3, After Effects CS3 Professional, Encore CS3, and Soundbooth CS3. We expect to publish free Leopard compatibility updates for the video applications in December 2007 and for Acrobat 8 Professional and Adobe Reader 8 in January 2008. For a complete overview of compatibility between Adobe creative applications and Mac OS X Leopard, see the chart on page 2 of this FAQ.
    Q. Will older versions of Adobe creative softwaresuch as Creative Suite 2 and
    Macromedia Studio 8 softwaresupport Mac OS X Leopard?
    A. While older Adobe applications may install and run on Mac OS X Leopard, they were
    designed, tested, and released to the public several years before this new operating system became available. You may, therefore, experience a variety of installation, stability, and reliability issues for which there is no resolution. Older versions of our creative software will not be updated to support Mac OS X Leopard. For a complete overview of compatibility between Adobe creative applications and Mac OS X Leopard, see the chart on page 2.
    Q. Will Adobe continue to test CS3 applications on Mac OS X Leopard?
    A. Yes. Adobe sets high standards of quality, stability, and reliability for our professional creative
    products, and we have worked closely with Apple to test Creative Suite 3 applications on both pre-release versions and the final shipping version of Mac OS X Leopard. While this testing showed that most CS3 applications perform well on Leopard (and that others run well but need updates for a few identified issues), we recognize that other issues may unexpectedly arise on any new operating system. We plan to continue testing and to monitor user experience closely to address any such issues. If you encounter any issues, please report them by going to www.adobe.com/misc/bugreport.html and clicking Report
    A Bug. Please note that we dont respond to submissions, but we do review them closely with the appropriate CS3 product teams.
    Q. Which CS3 applications will need patches to be compatible with Mac OS X Leopard?
    A. The following table summarizes compatibility between Adobe creative applications and Mac OS X Leopard. It notes which CS3 applications require updates for full Leopard compatibility and when Adobe expects to release those free updates.
    At A Glance: Mac OS X Leopard Compatibility
    ADOBE APPLICATION COMPATIBLE WITH REQUIRES UPDATE NOTES ABOUT
    Mac OS X Leopard For Mac OS X Leopard Compatibility
    Creative Suite 3 Design Premium ✔ Requires update to Acrobat 8.1.2

  • File size different in Bridge CS3 and Photoshop

    I'm using PS CS3 and Bridge CS3 on a Macbook Pro. I have about 40 files that are about 50MB when opened in PS. In Bridge, under the thumbnails, the file size is pretty close to that, sometimes the exact amount, sometimes off by a couple/few MBs. I've been told this is due to some compression "on the disk" by Bridge. All the files are PSDs, by the way, and they are all flattened.
    What I don't understand is why just a *few* files that are 50MB in PS are showing up MUCH smaller in Bridge; e.g., 36MB. If it's due to compression, why would Bridge compress just a few files so much?
    I'm wondering if this has to do with the cached thumbnails, and maybe the thumbnails aren't showing the latest version (with accurate size) of the file. I don't know much about the cache, and I'm afraid to "purge the cache" without knowing anything about it. Also, if it has to do with preferences, I'm don't really know about that, either.

    Bridge does not compress any files whatsoever. Bridge is not an image editor, it's nothing but a browser that hands the files to their respective applications. Bridge does not "open" or "save" files, it can't compress them in any shape or form.
    What you are seeing is the difference between the opened, uncompressed file in RAM and the space the file occupies on disk once
    Photoshop has saved and compressed it.
    The Bridge cache has nothing to do with any of this.

  • Adobe Illustrator CS3 and FrameMaker 8 - Are interactive rollovers possible?

    Hello,
    I recently read an article (see URL below) that talked about using InDesign to create rollover effects on graphics, that would carry forward
    as the graphic was brought into FrameMaker and then saved out as a PDF.
    http://www.creativetechs.com/iq/make_a_pdf_portfolio_with_interactive_rollovers.html
    Can Illustrator CS3 allow me to take a drawing, screen capture or photograph (graphic with callouts drawn on top of the photo)and add interactive rollover effects? Or, is Illustrator CS3 limited in what it can provide for interactivity, compared with InDesign CS3, Fireworks CS3 and Flash CS3 and Photoshop CS3. I would prefer to work in Illustrator CS3.
    Also, I would prefer to either place the .ai file format right into FrameMaker (linked to file) as that seems to work very well. Note, I am trying to stay away from SVGs at this time.
    Can I create an interactive drawing or graphic and save it (e.g. ai, png format) so that the end result is an interactive PDF, as shown in the samples on the website above?
    Thanks for your responses. It is very much appreciated.
    Regards,
    Jim

    Yes.
    Select the object. Choose Effect > Distort & Transform > Transform
    Tick the Reflect box. Set the 9 point origin indicator to the reflect origin you want. Set the "copies" box to 1. Click OK.
    You should then be able to alter the original object and see changes in the reflection.

  • Using CS3 and CS4 on the same computer

    I have CS3 and have used it for about two years completing many projects and I am considering upgrading to either CS4 or CS5.  When and if i do this will I have to delete CS3 and replace it with the newer version or can they both remain functional on the computer?  And how compatible are the projects, can you open a CS3 project in CS4 or CS5 without issues?

    CS5 will ask to convert and save new copies of your CS3 and 4 projects when you open them. They will work in CS5, but they will not be backwards-compatible.
    And how compatible are the projects, can you open a CS3 project in CS4

  • Problems reinstalling Premiere and Encore CS3

    Using Vista 64,I had the problem of losing my 3 optical drives (2 DVD and 1 Blu-Ray) two days ago.(The problem with the drivers not being available).Despite trying the regedit fix (upper and lower filter removal),they still did not work and I could not use the repair option on the installer DVD for obvious reasons.So a fresh install was carried out,everything I had on the computer before the re-install has loaded and is working fine,except Premiere Pro CS3 and Encore CS3.I can load the third party content on the Premiere disc and the codecs and the library on the Encore disc but NOT the main programmes.Anybody know of a workaround?.
    The Vista 64 is an upgrade from XP professional and the Premiere CS3 an upgrade from Premiere 6.5.Both applications worked fine until my optical drive problem.Any help or advice appreciated.
    Mike Webb

    Sounds like a problematic video driver or codec issue. You need to update all your drivers and try again. Also get rid of any unnecessary codecs. Try opening files in various formats and see if the same happens. Also you should search the KnowledgeBase, it contains a lot of information about this kind of problem.
    If all fails, call Adobe Tech Support...
