Acrobat 8 In The Fourth Quarter?
An interview with Bruce R. Chizen, Adobe Systems, Inc. Chief Executive Officer, was published by the New York Times on Saturday. Among other things, Chizen makes it clear that we will see a new version of Acrobat by December:
One of the issues as it relates to our investors is that some of the new products we have planned will not be released until later this year and into next year. Acrobat 8 is coming to the market at the end of the year. And in the spring, we anticipate shipping the next release of Creative Suite. In it, not only are there new features in each of the individual applications, like InDesign and Photoshop, but in addition it is the first release in which we will see integration between the Adobe products and the former Macromedia products, which our customers have been asking for.
I will assume that if we are going to see Acrobat 8 by the end of the year, then we will also see new versions of Reader and LiveCycle Designer.
