Adobe Creative Cloud: Resources

Summary

This article has information about applications included in the Adobe Creative Cloud Suite available for installation on USNH-owned Windows and Mac computers for use by faculty and staff.  The article includes information about the various Adobe applications that are commonly used by faculty/staff and what each application is used for.

 

Adobe Creative Cloud Applications 

Adobe Creative Cloud Suite applications are available to be installed on USNH-owned Windows or Mac computers. The Adobe Creative Cloud Suite is comprised of over 20 individual applications and when installed as a single unit takes up a large portion of your computer's hard drive. Therefore, we are making the applications available as individual downloads through your computer's Company Portal (Windows) or Self Service (Mac).

In order to conserve space on your computer, you should only install the applications you need. System requirements are provided where possible to assist you in this process. We recommend that you check to see if your computer has the appropriate hardware (disk space, memory graphics card) BEFORE attempting to download the application. If you have questions, please contact the Help Desk.

Please note that the USNH license for Adobe Creative Cloud does not allow for installation on faculty/staff personal computers or on student-owned computers. However, the full Adobe Suite is available on computers in the computer labs on campus.  Additionally, the suite is available for PSU students on a subscription basis with an educational discount from the PSU On the Hub software vendor.
