Adobe's popular line of software products, Creative Suite, now has a new version--CS5. This includes modified versions of every single one of the 15 products, plus their new service, Adobe CS Live which is a set of five online services that "accelerate key aspects of the creative workflow and enable designers to focus on creating their best work." (Adobe). That doesn't really describe specifically what it does but I can only imagine it would be something like Microsoft Office Live. CS Live is only free for a limited time.

New features in CS5 include the following, as quoted by Adobe:

• Truer Edge technology in Photoshop CS5 Extended offers improved edge detecting technology and masking results in less time. Photoshop CS5 Extended also lets users remove an image element and immediately replace the missing pixels with Content-Aware Fill.
• InDesign CS5 powers the transition to digital publishing with new interactive documents and enhanced eReader device support.
• Native 64-bit support in Photoshop, Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects enables customers to work more fluidly on high resolution projects.
• New Text Layout Framework in Flash Professional CS5 provides professional-level typography capabilities with functions like kerning, ligatures, tracking, leading, threaded text block and multiple columns.
• New stroke options in Illustrator CS5 allow users to create strokes of variable widths and precisely adjust the width at any point along the stroke.
• The NVIDIA® GPU accelerated Adobe Mercury Playback Engine allows Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 users to open projects faster, refine effects-rich HD sequences in real time and play back complex projects without rendering.
• The new Roto Brush tool in After Effects helps users save time by isolating moving foreground elements in a fraction of the normal time.
• Dreamweaver CS5 now supports popular content management systems Drupal, Joomla! and WordPress, allowing designers to get accurate views of dynamic Web content from within Dreamweaver.
