ACCORDING to John Loiacono, senior vice president of Creative Solutions at Adobe, the core focus of Adobe Creative Suite 4 is to allow creative professionals embrace the potential of interactive design and deliver consistent work across media platforms. This is “ensuring it is the idea, not the medium, that is the message,” he said.

To enable this, Adobe said the release of CS4 Design Premium allows quick transfer of projects from Photoshop, Illustrator or InDesign to Flash, DreamWeaver, Fireworks or Adobe Acrobat 9.

To be specific, designers can create dynamic documents by exporting an InDesign layout as XFL file, opening it in Flash, editing text and graphics and adding interactive elements. Web designers can build prototypes for a website or web applications in Fireworks with Photoshop or Illustrator layered artwork.

For Photoshop CS4, designers can do 3D painting, scale images with mouse dragging, as well as generate composites based on extended depth of field and 360 degree panoramas with seamless tones and colors.

Object-based animation in Flash Professional software allows designers to convert 2D images to common 3D shapes and use 3D transformation tools like 3D rotate and Bones tool, which offers inverse kinematics to create chain-like animation.
