Two things the 'Adobe Help Viewer' SAYS Premiere can do that it actually can't.

Problem #1 - EPS vector files.
Quote:
Setting up, and bringing in assets / Importing files:
"Adobe Premiere Pro continuously rasterizes EPS images, so you can scale these files without pixilation."
This is completely untrue. If I bring in a .EPS or even a .AI file, Premiere immediately rasterizes it, and displays it at the native pixel site of the Illustrator document. This is usually very small, something like 600x600-ish. As soon as you scale it, all quality is destroyed.
After Effects doesn't have this problem. It would be nice to scale vector images in Premiere, and the Help SAYS it can do it, but it can not.
Problem #2 - HDV Capture
Quote:
Setting up, and bringing in assets / Capturing and digitizing:
"You can choose whether to preview DV video on the desktop during preview, during capture, or both. These options for HDV desktop preview, however, are supported on Windows only."
Also completely untrue. There is absolutely NO way to preview HDV footage on your desktop as it's capturing. Adobe announced with pride that this would be one of the new fancy features of CS3, but to my knowledge NO one has gotten it to work.
If someone can get either of these to work, please let me know how.

I don't have the type of files you speak of in "Problem #1", but I will try to do some research as time permits.
"Problem #2" is actually correctly documented. You need to read the second sentence more carefully. It is saying that you can view HDV video on the desktop "during preview", but says nothing about "during capture", which as you know it cannot do. I'm not sure why, but I'm guessing it's a technical issue that Adobe hasn't had time to deal with yet.
Cheers
Eddie

  • What happened to the Adobe Help Viewer or Center for CS4?

    What happened to the great help program that CS2 and then CS3 had? I don't seen any such program for CS4!!!!
    Thanks, --bill

    The help system has been changed again. If you are online the Help menu takes you to the Adobe Community Help Center (link to help is on the right), otherwise it loads a local copy from your computer.
    You can use the PDF copy of the manual on your installation discs or download it from the Community Help Center.

  • Adobe Help Viewer 1.1 interferance

    I am having the Adobe Help Viewer 1.1 problem also. I have
    CS3 Web Standard and CS3 Design Standard. I am running Windows XP
    Professional 2003. I installed a 1GB RAM chip. I have installed,
    activated, updated and registered the two above program groups.
    But, I cannot get the Help button to work for me. I click Help and
    a Adobe Help Viewer 1.1 screen pops up and says "This topic is in
    the Help system of another product. To view the topic, install that
    product. about:blank. Part of my computer course is to analyze the
    Help of the CS3 Dreamweaver system and I am getting nowhere.

    I can't figure out how to add a new topic...since I am now
    using Leopard 10.5 and CS3. When I go into Adobe apps...such as
    Premier Pro, PhotoShop...the Adobe Help Viewer 1.1 is one of the
    options under PP and PS HELP menus. BUT IT IS NOT THERE FOR
    DREAMWEAVER. Suggestions...anything BUT reinstall...it was HELL

    Hello, I recently downloaded a trial version of Lightroom and then decided to get the monthly photoshop membership.  Now, when I launch Lightroom, my choices are to enter a serial number to continue the trial.  On the adobe website, it says "You can convert your trial to a Creative Cloud complete or single-app membership by purchasing on the Creative Cloud website. After you purchase your membership, your desktop product trial will automatically be licensed upon relaunch."  But this is not the case.  I do not want to risk losing my catalog and the work I have already done in Lightroom, so what should I do?

  • Adobe Help Viewer Problem

    For some reason, I recently noticed that the Adobe Help Viewer for After Effects CS3 is not displaying properly.  When I use the help viewer for any other applicaiong (I have CS3 Production Premium) it looks normal (like a flash display).  But I when I open it for After Effects, there is no image on top and the text is larger blue on a white background (instead of smaller on a greay background, etc.).  No images are displayed in the help text.  This just happens for after effects.  I have Help Viewer version 1.1, build 198.  I tried downloading the 1.1 update from the website (even though it's the same build number) but when I try to install I get an error in setup.exe.  Any ideas?
    I can still navigate through the help viewer but it is definately not displaying properly.
    Thanks.

    I don't know what's causing the problem that you're describing, but I recommend against using the Help Viewer for After Effects CS3. I recommend that you either use the After Effects CS3 Help on the Web or the After Effects CS3 Help document in PDF. For After Effects CS3 and After Effects CS4, the Help document installed on your hard disk is not as complete and current as the HTML and PDF versions available on the Web.

  • Adobe Help Viewer

    I wish that the help pages still had the arrows for the previous and next topic in the help documentation (assuming such an organization still applies). 
    I often found it very useful and quick to be able to click forwards or backwords to the next logical section of the manual because related issues were all together, and if the page you were on did not have the answer, often the adjoining sections either had the answer or informative enough to help you solve the problem.  
    Now it seems like you have to do a search again, or go back to the top of the help section you are in.

  • Cannot log in to The Adobe Content Viewer on my iPad - Says Authentication Failed?

    Cannot login to the Adobe Content Viewer on my ipad.

    Check two things:
    1) Make sure your device is connected to the Internet.
    2) Make sure that the Adobe ID you're using is verified to work with DPS. On a computer, sign in to https://digitalpublishing.acrobat.com, and follow the prompts.
    Let us know if you have a valid Adobe ID and you're still getting this error.

    i just downloaded photoshop elements 7.0 to a new box and it tells me that my serial number is not valid. the adobe support team says the number is valid, but that they can't help me

    Which operating system are you using?
    When you say downloaded, where did download pse 7 from?
    Do you have the original install disk or original download for pse 7?
    I believe the serials won't interchange between the disk version of pse 7 and the electronic down load version.

  • How can I publish an App to a selceted group of people without using the Adobe Contetn Viewer?

    How can I publish an App to a selected group of people ( not via App Store) without using the Adobe Content Viewer?
    The App was developed with InDesign 6.0

    You'd have to sign up for an Apple Developer account and then gather all the UDID's (Apple limits this to only 100 devices) that you want your app to be installed on. Create your mobile provisioning profiles to include these ID's and then you could use TestFlight to push out your app and monitor who has installed it. Of course Testflight is intended for monitoring your apps performance but I'm sure you can get away with it if you use it to push you app. One thing to keep in mind is the mobile provisoning profiles are only valid for 1 year. Hope this helps.

  • Photoshop CS3 "There was an error initializing the adobe help application..."

    So, I just installed CS3 and I went to the photoshop help (F1) and an error pops up that says "There was an error initializing the adobe help application. You may need to reinstall the application and the help component.". I have uninstalled and reinstalled photoshop multiple times, I have also used "WinCS3Clean" to clean it out and the same thing happens. Would anyone have an idea how to fix this?

    What are your system language settings, in which language do you install and in which language do you run Photoshop? If there's a mismatch, Help will not launch even if it sits somewhere on the disc. In any case, you can find all help files online at http://livedocs.adobe.com, often with updated info and user comments.

  • Share message to point user to the Adobe Content Viewer app

    When a user shares a folio, can there be a choice to send a message with instructions to share via the Adobe Content Viewer app?
    Currently, when I share a folio, the other person receives an email which points them to digitialpublishing.acrobat.com and tells them how "once accepted, the folio can be accessed in your Folio Builder panel in InDesign." Now I can see that in many environments that is a perfectly reasonable workflow, but I have found it really confuses clients when you're sharing folios with people merely need to view the folios via the Adobe Content Viewer app. I fielded a few "it's not giving me permission", "What is it I am supposed to do, John?", "InDesign, I don't have InDesign" before figuring out the problem.
    Now I know what's going on, I'm sending them emails saying they don't need to worry about the standard message and digitialpublishing.acrobat.com, but just install the app, login with your Adobe ID, and the app will make the folio available to them. Why can't this route be an option for the sharing instructions?
    John

    Sorry, no idea. We're all just fellow users here and have no insight into the processes within the iTunes Store, and you'll never get a response from Apple in these forums.
    Speaking strictly for me (I'm the only one I can speak for), I'm not sure how Bob Levine would know that Apple is sitting on an update unless he works for Adobe (as he may, though I would think his profile there would say so). But his statement that the version of Adobe Content Viewer is the "original version" is incorrect, if that's what he really meant to say. The version in the iTunes Store is by no means the original, it's up to 1.7.0, and was last updated on May 16th of this year. There may indeed be a new version awaiting approval, though; I have no way of knowing. If there is, though, it would not seem that Apple has been sitting on it for all that long.
    Regards.

  • Why does the Adobe Help Manager not close?

    I'm not sure what the "Adobe Help Manager" (silly name) is. I notice it as an open application in my toolbar (Windows 7) but you cannot close it. It just stays there. Only goes away when I've restarted my system. Any ideas or comments?
    Generally speaking, I'd like to comment that many of the current Adobe programs (including CC) are not nearly as intuitive as they should be. One wastes quite a bit of time trying to figure out how to accomplish rather obvious functions. Usually will have to go online to find an answer. Should be more obvious and clear. The interface of CC (for uploading work files) seems a "clean" design. Yes, clean... and unintuitive.

    It's been weeks since I've used the file upload 'cloud' function of Creative Cloud, but I do recall I had to seek out numerous youtube videos, as well as some from Adobe's site, to try and figure out how it worked. Dragging and dropping seemed like a very obvious function, but you have to select: Actions: Download, etc. etc. It's a clunky, dispiriting interface.
    So... I just started using google drive instead. I can quickly drag and drop. I work on a PC and a Mac and don't have a shared drive between them (due the usual platform issues) so I like uploading to a cloud server and transferring between the two machines that way. Very nice to compare how the two different systems are displaying an html doc or a photoshop file.
    While the wind is at my back, I really like CC as to the software options, but it is a very daunting experience to consider learning new programs. It's taken me fifteen years of work to be  as proficient as I am with PS (as a photographer and designer). I still find Dreamweaver very difficult and obscure in so many ways. I'm sure that's why you created Muse... but I will not take the time required to learn and new program. It's just a face. Remember in the Matrix when you would learn a huge amount of technical knowledge just by plugging into something? That's what we need (ha ha).
    Now that Adobe is doing away with the distributive disc system for software programs, perhaps the next great leap is the discontinuation entirely of massive software progams themselves. Have no idea how this would happen, but I think patience is coming to an end for learning huge new software programs. Seems like such a relic of the past now.
    Wish Adobe would bring designers more into how their programs work. They all seem to be designed by software engineers, and thus the truly disheartening style of the menues, opening into dozens of submenues, basements, dark vaults, etc. etc. The Adobe interfaces are all uniform now, but it's an old look that goes back almost ten years. Hope the creatives can soon lead to a new approach.

    I installed LR CC , but when i try launching it flashes & it is gone. I tried the solution in the Adobe Site - which says search for the folder Library/Application Support/ Adobe/ Sl Store ...., but i can't seem to find the SL Store or SLCache folders ( i use the Mac). Only then can i apply the solution. I just cant seem to find the folder in the first place

  • Adobe Help Viewer font

    Hi everyone,
    I don't know whether I am posting this to the correct section
    but I am trying to find out what font Adobe has used in their
    Dreamweaver Help (which displays in Adobe Help Viewer 1.1)! Can

    Thanks

    You may be better off posting this to the
    Dreamweaver
    Forums. That said, I don't have Dreamweaver but someone on here
    may have and could help. The problem you have though is that it is
    sometimes hard to identify a font as it depneds on what fonts are
    installed on a user's PC. The use of fontsets allow help authors to
    specify a default font but substitute it for another one if the
    user doesn't have the default font installed. What this all means
    is that the font you see may not be the one they developed the help
    in.
