Adobe Creative Suite 3 is a collection of Adobe software that comes in six editions that are comprised of various bundles of Adobe software.

Adobe Photoshop CS3 software allows you to scan, create, modify and enhance digital photographs and images.

Industry-standard drawing tools, flexible color controls, and professional type controls help you capture your ideas and experiment freely, while timesaving features such as easier-to-access options let you work quickly and intuitively.

Adobe InDesign CS3 is page layout software that lets you assemble and build documents. Built for demanding workflows, InDesign integrates smoothly with Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Acrobat, InCopy, and Dreamweaver software; offers powerful features for creating richer, more complex documents; and reliably outputs pages to multiple media.
