Adios.  &#8211;J.]<\/i><\/b><br \/>\nI&#8217;m pleased to report that we&#8217;ve just posted the Photoshop 9.0.1 updater for Photoshop CS2 (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.adobe.com\/support\/downloads\/detail.jsp?ftpID=3334\">Mac<\/a>\/<a href=\"http:\/\/www.adobe.com\/support\/downloads\/detail.jsp?ftpID=3335\">Win<\/a>).  In addition to addressing a crummy <a href=\"http:\/\/www.adobe.com\/support\/techdocs\/323412.html\">PDF offset bug<\/a>, this release means that:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>After editing an image in Photoshop CS2 via Acrobat Touchup, the image no longer gets re-positioned.\n<li>Photoshop no longer hangs for several seconds when using painting tools with quick strokes.\n<li>A program error that could appear when mousing over high res doc with Brush Tool has been fixed.\n<li>Documents containing a large number of text layers now open more quickly.\n<li>An error that could cause a crash on Mac when launching, or when opening or saving a file, has been addressed.\n<li>Problems related to palettes on Windows (slow redraw, palettes go white, possible crash) have been addressed.\n<li>TIFF files from certain scanners can now be opened correctly.\n<li>XMP metadata from AI &amp; PDF files is now retained in Photoshop.\n<li>Slow performance when toggling layer visibility has been fixed.\n<li>Info palette numbers now display and update when moving a curve point in Curves via the cursor keys.\n<li>Problems opening certain TIFF and PSB files greater than 2GB in size have been resolved.\n<li>The Merge to HDR command now functions properly when using high-ASCII characters in user login.<\/ul>\n<p>Dot releases (updates) like this are much like detention in high school&#8211;a kind of penalty box that keeps you away from what you really want to be doing (building the Next Great Transformative Thing and all).  They&#8217;re also a drag since cracking open the shipping app brings a risk of breaking something else, so quite a few testing cycles go into making sure everything is solid.  In any case, we hope you weren&#8217;t experiencing any static with CS2 thus far, and if you were, this update should set things right.<br \/>\n[Update: As probably wasn&#8217;t clear enough in the last paragraph, I was going for humor, not whining.  Fixing bugs that have been hurting customers is clearly the right thing to do, and we&#8217;re glad to have taken the time to do this update.  (And again, sorry we didn&#8217;t catch these problems before shipping.)  I just don&#8217;t like the idea that dot releases are an expected fact of life, and that one shouldn&#8217;t buy or use a product until after a first dot release, service pack, etc. has been issued.  The goal of any developer should obviously be to avoid the need for a bug-fix update.]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[Update June 2, 2007: If you&#8217;re here because you&#8217;re trying to rip us off by somehow stealing Photoshop (via serial number, keygen, crack, etc.), keep moving; you&#8217;ll get no satisfaction here.
