It seems now, though this is just my opinion, Adobe wanted to ensure each offline CC product had a bullet-proof activation procedure, as well as each application’s activation being independent to other currently installed or future-installed applications. Certainly not a good reflection upon their Marketing Cloud product. Adobe failed miserably on the marketing side, and it’s my opinion Adobe should have been more open to what they were hoping to achieve. In spite of Adobe offering another cloud product, Adobe Marketing Cloud, a collection of integrated online marketing and Web analytics products, Adobe marketed the offline downloads, with a heavy dose of spin but no substance. However I really do wish Adobe hadn’t lead us all to believe the offline installers were only just around the corner, for the best part of almost two years. Now look who’s got egg all over their face, and who’s been eating humble pie all weekend – moi. So all those Adobe managers you spoke to at MAX 2018 recently were indeed telling the truth after all, Oh dear ProDesignTools, if were a betting person, I would have lost US$1000, money that could well have gone towards a CC 2018 subscription. That’s my confidence in Adobe dismissing offline installers as from the Jurassic era. If I were a betting person, I would bet US$1000 that Adobe will never offer offline single file direct download installers for InDesign, InCopy, or Dreamweaver CC 2018. Previously, there hadn’t been any new direct download links at all for apps like InDesign, Dreamweaver, and Animate for over two years! We are working with Adobe to see if we can get standalone installers for ongoing CC product updates released and published, as they have been in the past… (for example, as we have for CC 2015 here on Windows and macOS) But, we don’t have an answer or roadmap yet for CC 2018.īut again, after a year of great effort to get a complete set of new offline installers created, we are thrilled to have these available for customers now. No direct links for any updates, at least not yet. So no, at present, these are the only versions. And, for the moment, we feel very lucky to have these. On your other question, there are currently no other direct downloads available for CC 2018. The table is kind of tight on space, so perhaps the easiest thing would be to indicate the installer’s version number when hovering over it with your mouse.
It’s a chunk of work though, so we’ll think about it.
