InDesign with Windows XP?

I have a custom made PC with XP Profesional (with service pack 3) but I cannot download the trail for the current Adobe CC In Design. Can I get an older version to dowmload?

CS6 is still available and should run on XP. See http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/cs6-system-requirements.html for system requirements.

  • How do i install indesign with windows 8 on a pc

    how do i unstal indesign with windows 8 on a pc?

    Visit this page please: http://www.adobe.com/products/indesign/buying-guide.html and then on the right hand panel of the page you will find InDesign Annual plan to Join Adobe Creative Cloud to leverage the most updated features of InDesign CC. When you've purchased it, you'll be able to download the software through Adobe Download Assistant as a electronic download that you can save to your desktop or any other location. You can then doubleclick the installer executable to proceed with installation and activation later on as the installation completes. If you're having another version of InDesign (older version ) then please let me know if you already downloaded the installer and then waiting to install it on your Windows 8 PC.

    Hi Dale,
    You can follow the article: System requirements | InDesign to check whether CS3 products can work on InDesign CS3.
    Also please let me know what error message you are getting while re installing InDesign.

  • InDesign CS6 with Window 8 Won't Launch

    Had been working fine, last launch was 3 days ago.  Today tried to open InDesign CS6 (Windows 8.1) and get the following InDesign.exe error box: "CAnot load InDesign.exe because it requires Paragraph Composer. Please install the Paragraph Composer plug-in and restart InDesign."  How do you do this, where do you get?

    Peter thanks for your help.
    I set up a new user account and tried, but that didn't work either.
    Do I need to :
    1. uninstall InDesign only with Windows Unintsaller (not the entire suite?)
    2. download InDesign from Adobe's website
    3. put in our serial # and I should be good to go?
    Or will I still need to reinstall my plugins through the Adobe manager?
    Thanks
    I would certainly try just doing ID first. If that's not successful you can remove the whole suite, run the cleaner tool (CS Cleaner Tool for installation problems | CCM, CS6, CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3) then reinstall.

  • Screen display issue with InDesign CS4 (Windows)

    I just upgraded from CS2 to CS4. I can open and use InDesign with no problems, until I try to switch to another application. Then, when I try to go back to InDesign, all I can see is the portion of the bar at the top of the screen that shows the link to Bridge, the view options and a bit of the outline of a palette or two. I have a two monitor setup. Most of the palettes are on the auxillary monitor and they show up just fine. The main display is where I'm having the issue. I can toggle in and out of Photoshop with no display issues. I haven't tried working with anything else from the CS4 package besides InD and Photoshop. This was not an issue with any CS2 product (Dreamweaver, Fireworks, InDesign, Photoshop, Flash). Nor has it been an issue with any of the other software I am running (so far).
    When the display vanishes, I can see the "data" from the program I was trying to toggle out of. For example, if I try to toggle between this page and InD right now, I can see most of this page except for the part of the page obscured by the outline of the control palette (that one reminiscent of pagemaker) and the little bits at the top. I can't see the project I'm working on. I can't see the File/Edit/etc. bar at the top of the page. A Control/Shift/Save will lock up the program completely. Then, I see the "save as" menu box (in addition to the browser screen around it) but the program is locked up. I can close everything on the computer and reboot and open InDesign to resume work--that is until I need to do something like edit a photo to drop into a layout. Then the issue occurs all over again.
    Windows machine; XP Pro, service pack 3 build 2600; NVidea GeForce 9600 GT graphics card.

    Bob, thanks for the info about the 6.0.2 patch. I'll try grabbing that today. This morning, on the first boot, I can't even see the program when I open it--just the snip of the command palette and part of the very top bar. Very irritating.
    Peter, I have tried maximizing, closing, reopening, etc. everything else I can think of. Same issue. I finally just bit the bullet and went back to CS2, rebuilding the current project so I can get the work done by deadline. I'll look for new video drivers this afternoon after I get back on track timewise on this newsletter. Weird that this display issue should just affect the one Adobe program though, and not the others if it is a video driver problem. I didn't do a lot of work in Dreamweaver--just enough to see if it displayed the same weird behaviour. Nope. Nor does Photoshop. Nor does Bridge. Nor does Acrobat. nor does any other software on the machine.

  • I am using InDesign CS 3.0.1 with Windows XP. I am getting a new computer with Windows 8.1. Will my version work with this? If not can I get an upgrade?

    I am using InDesign CS 3.0.1 with Windows XP. I am getting a new computer with Windows 8.1. Will my version work with this? If not can I get an upgrade?

    Probably won't work. You can buy a full license for CS6 which is already two versions and soon to be three out of date or you can subscribe to Creative Cloud.

  • Installing InDesign 5.5 With Windows 8.1

    Ca anyone help me please?  I am trying to transfer my licensed copy of InDesign 5.5 to my new Windows 8.1 computer.   Every time I do, I get the message 'Installer has detected that a machine restart may be pending. It is recommended that you quit installer, quit this application, restart your machine and try installing again'. I have done this but it makes no difference. Is 5.5 compatible with Windows 8?  A suggested fix for windows 7 was to delete the InProgress key in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SessionManager but this does not appear to exist. Can anyone please provide help with resolving the problem?  Thank you. Kevin McIlwee

    Thank you very much that worked!!!!!

  • Cannot Print InDesign from Windows 7 OS

    Hi all,
    I am hoping someone might be able to suggest something that can fix this issue. I just got a new machine with Windows 7 as the OS. This is a brand new machine. I've installed PageMaker, InDesign CS4, and Acrobat 9 Pro - complete installations of each. When I attempt to print to any printer (my local, the network, or PDF) only garbage prints on the page... It appears as symbols and characters across the top of each page and seems to feed pages indefinitely until forcing met to shut off the selected printer.
    I've checked for updates and all are up to date.
    I tried to outsmart it by printing as a PDF and also tried exporting to PDF. It works on three of five files. The two that will not create a PDF gives an error stating that Distiller cannot be started.
    Any suggestions are most appreciated.
    Thank you!

    Well, I can report that removing the HP 2800 InkJet driver did not fix the problem.
    The only drivers currently installed (now) are applicable to either my local printer or the network printers that I use. All test pages print without issue.
    The only print issues I am experiencing from any program is from Adobe PageMaker and InDesign.
    Open for more suggestions and very grateful for your help!

  • Will Pagemaker 7 work with Windows 7 (on an iMac)?

    I'm writing for my dad, 86, who has designed several books in Page Maker 7 on a PC running Windows XP. For his 5th book, he wants to switch to the iMac.
    So he got an iMac with the Adobe Creative Suite 3 with InDesign. Unfortunately, despite classes and tutorials, he cannot master inDesign. It's just too difficult. Why does Adobe (and Microsoft Office and all the developers) feel the need to keep making the programs more difficult, but then flat out lie by saying they're actually easier?
    So he's still using the pc with Page Maker and going back and forth from mac to pc for this photo or that font, and it's annoying and complicated.
    How about this for a solution: What if I were to install Parallels and put Windows 7 on the iMac, and run Page Maker 7 there.
    Here are my questions:
    Is the Page Maker 7 on his pc (which was installed several years ago) the same Page Maker 7 Adobe is offering here now?
    Of course he can't FIND his original Page Maker 7 disks, so we have to purchase new ones.
    Is he eligible for an upgrade price from Adobe, since he owns the earlier Page Maker and a full version of CS3?
    Will the current Page Maker 7, available on the Adobe website, be compatible with Windows 7?
    What other pitfalls am I likely to encounter by trying to do this?
    Thanks for any assistance you can offer,
    Monica

    Hello Monica. My replies in order:
    Yes.
    Of course.
    Almost completely sure that he is, if he has his complete serial number.
    In theory, most definitely no. In practice, there are reports of successful instalations, almost always with some (or many) shortcomings.
    Almost anything.

  • Is my Creative Suite 1.1.1 compatible with windows 8.1?

    I am a retired pastor who has used InDesign to create my sermon outlines for years. I now need to update my computer and will have to use Windows 8.1. Will my old CS 1.1.1 (from 1984) work with Windows 8.1. I cannot possible afford to go to a new version of InDesign.

    Hi Jaypeay,
    No, CS1.1.1 is not Compatible with Windows 8.1.
    Thanks!

  • How to create documents on Mac that are compatible with Windows?

    I have just started working in InDesign for a client who uses InDesign and wanted me to learn the program so that they could make changes on their own in the future to documents I create for them.  I am working on a Mac OS 10.6.2 They have PCs and are working in a Windows environment.  I sent the first packaged dvd for their printer and sent it to them last week.  Everything looked beautiful on this end, no errors, packaged with links and fonts.  When they received the disc the font files on the disc that looks perfect on my computer-- on their computer all read as 0kb and they can't make it work.  I have used truetype, type 1 and open type fonts.  I just read something in an earlier discussion about true type and T1 as being problematic with PCs?  What can I do to be compatible?

    My apologies. I find working in unfamiliar computer systems challenging and after over an hour on the phone trying to help an inexperienced PC user find fonts and find her way around InDesign with which she was even less familiar on a PC, a platform with which I have had no experience in the last 13 years, I was frustrated. My comment was inapropriate to this forum.  I do realize that PCs are valuable tools.  The computer system one is familiar with is always the best platform there is when in the middle of a complicated job.

  • InDesign CS4 window fills screen at open

    I just installed Adobe CS4 Design Premium version 6.0.3.  When I open a document using InDesign, the window nearly fills the 30" screen on my Apple HD Display.  I would like to adjust the window size so that it frames an 8.5"x11" portrait document with only a little margin all the way around.  When I do this and save the document, it always opens to the same, large window.  It would be much more efficient if I could set the window size to the desired dimensions so that it would open in that configuration and not in the large version.  I can't seem to make that happen.  Any ideas?  Thanks for any help you can give.  I'm running 10.5.7 on a Mac Pro (Early 2008) with 2GB RAM and plenty of hard drive space.

    Not sure how this will come across, but here is the Javascript (it works in CS3) - with my apologies to the author, whose name I have lost:
    //DESCRIPTION: Resets active window size or uses front window to set default size.
    // Check for WindowDefault.txt; if present use it to set front window
    // if not, use front window to set it after checking with user.
    myPath = app.activeScript;
    myParts = myPath.toString().split("/");
    myParts[(myParts.length - 1)] =  "WindowDefault" + app.version.slice(0,1) + ".txt";
    myNewPath = myParts.join("/");
    mySettingsFile = File(myNewPath);
    // Before proceeding, check that there is a front window
    // If not, offer user the chance to delete the current settings
    if (app.windows.length < 1) {
    beep();
    if (confirm("No window is open; would you like to delete the settings file?")) {
      // User said yes; check that it exists
      if(mySettingsFile.exists) {
       mySettingsFile.remove();
    } else {
    if (mySettingsFile.open("r")) {
      savedBounds = mySettingsFile.read();
      mySettingsFile.close();
      myBounds = savedBounds.split(",");
      for (i = 0; i<myBounds.length; i++) {
       myBounds[i] = Number(myBounds[i]);
      app.windows[0].bounds = myBounds;
    } else {
      beep();
      if (confirm("Settings file is missing. Use current front window to set default?")) {
       // User said: go to it.
       new File(mySettingsFile);
       mySettingsFile.open("w");
       mySettingsFile.write(app.windows[0].bounds);
       mySettingsFile.close();

  • InDesign with eps image

    Hi Experts,
    We have a problem with EPS image which duplicates the pages while exporting in to PostScript file.
    For example, we have placed the particular EPS image in page 2 and if we export the document as PS the same page has duplicated (i.e. 1,2,2,3....) in PostScript/PDF file.
    We never had this problem if we export directly into PDF format.
    Is there any idea why InDesign creates duplicate page while exporting in to PS?
    We are using InDesign CS4 (Windows).

    Stop using EPS and stop printing to postscript.
    Both are archaic. Use native AI, PSD or PDF files and export to PDF.

  • Is CS3 Design Standard compatible with Windows 7 64-bits and MS Office 2010 Pro Plus?

    Hi,
    I have been googling around to see if Adobe CS3 Design Standard is compatible with Windows 7 64-bits with MS Office 2010 Pro Plus, but I couldn't find a decent answer.
    If anyone here has any idea on this, please let me know.
    As far as i know Adobe CS3 comes with Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro which is not compatible with MS Office 2010, so I am sort of worried that I will need to upgrade my CS3 to CS6.
    Any advises are welcome.
    Thanks.

    I don't know if Acrobat 8 is Win 7 64 bit compatible or if it's supported. The rest of the apps should be fine.
    But I do think you'll have issues with Office 2010 files being placed into InDesign.
    Moving to CS6 is something you should be thinking about very soon. You only get upgrade pricing until the end of the year, but I highly recommend taking a look at Creative Cloud. At $29.99/month for the first year it's a bargain.
