Vertical Gradient in InDesign and Photoshop

All I see is linear and radial and a couple of others, but no wasy to make a gradient from top to bottom or bottom to top. What am I missing?

I've moved your question to the InDesign forum since you posted it in a low-volume forum.
In InDesign, select the object to which you've applied the gradient. Then select the Gradient Swatch tool (press the letter G) and drag across the object in any direction, including vertically.
You can also use the Gradient panel (Window > Color > Gradient) and enter an angle for the gradient.

  • 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.

  • Have Creative Cloud - Cannot get off the trial versions of InDesign and Photoshop

    Windows 8
    64-bit operating system, x64-bit based processor
    Downloaded and installed trial version of InDesign CS6 (three days left on trial)
    Purchased Creative Cloud two days ago
    Downloaded and installed Photoshop CS6 (loads as a trial version)
    When clicking on Registration number, get error message “not connected to Internet”
    Live chat instructed to uninstall both InDesign and Photoshop and download again.
    Cancelled Cloud
    Next day phone rep spent ½ hour trying to get it to work. Said it would all work and helped me re-purchase Cloud – received email confirmation.
    Phone rep passed me on to someone who was supposed to give me a registration number. Spent another ½ hour doing the exact same thing. Was told there are no registration numbers in Cloud. Wanted to pass me off to another support department – I declined.
    Received email today:
    “Your Creative Cloud membership will be transitioned to a Free membership at the end of the next billing period. This means you will lose access to many of the apps and services included with a Paid Creative Cloud membership.
    In addition, since Free membership offers only 2GB of storage, you may need to remove files to get your cloud storage down to 2GB (or to purchase additional storage separately if you choose). If you leave more than 2GB of files on Creative Cloud for more than 90 days, you may lose access to some or all of your files. If you decide you want to return to a Paid membership, update your payment information and desired plan on the account management page.
    If you need help or have any questions, contact Customer Support.

    Help!!!!!!!!!!! I can’t take this any longer. I need to get both InDesign and Photoshop off of the trial versions. Adobe Applications Manager doesn’t recognize the Internet connection even though I’m on the Internet. What is going on?

    It's working now! Someone, somewhere, read my post. Whoever you are - THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!

  • 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.

  • How to uninstall CS6 Indesign and Photoshop silently?

    Hello,
    We have a situation where we have to uninstall CS6 Indesign and Photoshop from dozens of computers. I would like to do this silently using Psexec or SCCM. So far I haven't been able to figure out how to do that. We have installed both using a msi file and I have tried command "msiexec.exe /uninstall C:\Temp\Build\indesigncs6.msi /quiet" for indesign but nothing happens. When taking the quiet command away I get an error saying "This feature can only be used to programs that have been installed". The error message has been roughly translated from Finnish so it probalbly isn't excatly the same in English versions. Obviously this computer has Indesign installed.
    I have also tried the PDApp.exe, but haven't been able to run that silently either. Command I've tried is C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE\PDApp\core\PDApp.exe --appletID="DWA_UI" --appletVersion="2.0" --mode="silent" --mediaSignature="{CFB770D7-8D43-1014-922B-CC2715FADE3F}"
    Is there a person who has successfully been able to silently uninstall Adobe Indesign or Photoshop CS6? If there is can you please tell us how to do it?

    Thanks for answering. I tried to contact Adobe Support, but could not find out how to do that. I went to the Adobe Contact site and filled in what kind of problem I have and it just suggests that I ask from the community. If I try anything else it just leads me to the beginning.
    You are absolutely correct that the CC Cleaner Tool is the way to do this. I have been able to generate cleanup.xml and used it. The problem is that the tool only finds Adobe Photoshop CS6 Driver version 13.0, Adobe Indesign CS6 Application Base Files version 8.0 and Adboe ID Credentials. It deletes these very efficiently and quietly. Problem is that it does not uninstall the whole program. For example all Adobe programs are still in the Start Menu and the Indesign folder is still found where it used to be. Have you any experience on this kind of problem?
    Thank you in advance
    Regards

  • 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 cause browser to open, multiple tabs appear

    I wasn't sure what to use as a header for this, but I'll try to explain.
    We use InDesign and Photoshop CS4 in my department daily. One of the people using PS and one using ID are having this same thing happen. They'll be using the applications and, all of a sudden, their browser will open and the main "help" page will open for whichever application they're using. Then very quickly, one tab after another will open, all being the main "help" page again. It will keep opening tabs until they go to the Task Manager and stop the process. The tabs open one after another very quickly (I said that already, didn't I?).
    We're using Windows XP Pro, Service Pack 3 (I'm a Mac guy, sorry if my descriptions aren't correct), and CS4 Design Premium.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Lloyd

    Well, that's what you get if you whack the F1 key over and over again...  Troubleshooting stuff like this is extremely annoying over in Windows-land, mostly because there are so many places where this bizarro behavior could be introduced. Perhaps these two people have the same keyboard-management software installed? And no one else in the office does?
    It's displaying malware-like behavior, because that was one of the old Javascript tricks in the early days of Windows malware. But for some reason I suspect that it's not actually malware - because only Adobe apps are displaying this behavior, and because you'd want to direct your infectees to banner ads or porn sites or phisherman imitations of Facebook for harvesting passwords or something along those lines, if it was actually malware at work here.

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

    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.

  • 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?

  • Difference between InDesign and Photoshop PDFs for printing?

    Hi, rather new to the whole printing business, forgive me.
    I have both InDesign and Photoshop, but I am better versed in Photoshop. Is there a significant difference between the capabilities for saving a PDF for print between the two? Also, would someone else be able to tell which program I made the PDF with?
    Thanks in advance.

    Like most operations, one tool or the other is more appropriate according to the makeup of the task. It's not just about which PDF is somehow "better," (there are many ways to produce PDF's, and the quality of output isn't necessarily directly dependent upon the originating application), but rather which tool is the correct one for the job.
    For instance, a movie poster can certainly be done completely in Photoshop to good effect. But, if I was laying out the pages of a textbook, where images and longer passages of paragraph-based text were to be mixed, the typographical and document assembly capabilities of InDesign would be indispensible. That's just an example. The very essence of art and design is learning and devising ways to use the available tools alone and in combination to produce a particular result, effect, or solution.

  • Server issues with Indesign and Photoshop

    Hi,
    We have recently moved to a Mac OS server for our company, but ever since doing so have started to have problems with our files corrupting.  We have since been advised by our IT contractor that Indesign and Photoshop files are now so sophisticated, with the way they access and use their database that it is best not to work on them from a server, as there are too many things that could cause problems with their database in a server situation.
    When I heard this, I thought 'surely not' as I know most companies work from a server and I couldn't imagine Indesign and Photoshop wouldn't be robust enough to manage the complexities of a server situation.
    Can anyone tell me of similar experiences, or is it more an issue we need to look at with the server itself?
    Thank you so much for your help, it is greatly appreicated.
    Lydia

    People work directly from the server all the time, and sooner or later experience file corruption. It isn't so much that the file is stored remotely as the potential for curruption due to network traffic is very high, particularly if you are making a large number of edits which must constantly be written to the file.
    The recommended workflow is to copy the files you need to the local workstation, edit, then copy back to the server.

  • Have subscription to current versions of indesign and photoshop, lost a laptop, need older versions

    A couple of weeks back, I purchased subscriptions to Indesign and Photoshop, to use on a cutting edge mac laptop.
    Then I lost the laptop. I have a police report if you'd like to see it.
    Now I'm back running my older mac, with os x 10.5.8 on it. I've got a 10.6 snow leopard disc on the way.
    I'd like to be able to download older versions of Indesign and Photoshop.
    Even if they're 30-day trials, they'd be helpful, as I've got a project I'm working on I'd like to finish.
    Thanks!

    You won't get a call from an Adobe employee unless you call them first, and probably not then (the call-back track record is pretty poor). Nobody who is participating in this thread so far works for Adobe, by the way. We're just volunteer users doing our best to help others like you. We do know the current state of licensing and program availability, however, and the information you are getting is correct. Adobe has a price structure, including a few incentives for users of previous versions which don't happen to help you unless you upgrade your OS so you can run the CC subscription versions, and they are not going to change the pricing to make you, or me, or anyone else happy.
    I'm sure you can probably find a version of CS3 for sale on the aftermarket, but be very careful. Most of the early version offers are either counterfeit or cannot be registered because they are not eligible for transfer being either education versions or part of the original owner's upgrade chain.

  • 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!
