SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Today at Adobe MAX, Adobe (Nasdaq: ADBE) unveiled significant innovation across its Creative Cloud applications and services. In addition to ground-breaking new features like Neural Filters in Photoshop, the company released major updates to its flagship applications including Lightroom, Premiere Pro and Illustrator. Adobe also underscored its commitment to accelerating the development of mobile and multi-surface apps, with the official launch of Adobe Illustrator on the iPad and Adobe Fresco on the iPhone. Additionally, the company previewed a prototype of a digital content attribution tool that will debut within Photoshop and Behance as part of its Content Authenticity Initiative.

Adobe MAX 2020: Creativity for All

Rooted in Adobe's mission to enable creativity for all, MAX 2020 is offered as a free around-the-world event. With 56 hours of live content planned, Adobe MAX will inspire, educate and entertain creators through product deep dives, luminary masterclasses and community events. From seasoned professionals to students, social media mavens and hobbyists, this year's event offers endless opportunities for creators to take their skills to the next level.

In a year defined by so many challenges, we're proud to bring our community together to underscore the resilience of creativity and share our vision for empowering creativity for all, said Scott Belsky, chief product officer and executive vice president, Creative Cloud, Adobe. Visualizing ideas, sharing stories and expressing whatever's in the mind's eye are more important now than ever. We're excited to introduce creative apps and services built to fuel continued growth for creative professionals, while also outfitting novices who want simple tools that bring their ideas to life.

Addressing Creators' Needs in 2020

According to Adobe's State of Creativity research, 82% of creators say that the events of 2020 have forever changed how they create, and 83% feel it's more important than ever to expand their abilities. With this reality as the backdrop, today's Creative Cloud releases empower users to level up their skills, collaborate seamlessly with others, accelerate their productivity and create for new mediums in entirely new ways.

Creative Systems Built to Accelerate Collaboration

It has never been more critical for teams to be in sync and work together efficiently than it is now. Creative Cloud applications have always been essential in driving creative output, but their power is even more evident when they work together. Over the years, Adobe has strategically tied key elements of its portfolio together into a powerful creative system that enables seamless sharing, consistency and collaboration between teams, which is especially critical in a remote working environment.

Creative Cloud Libraries, Expanded: Libraries, which previously enabled select cross-app asset sharing and collaboration, now allows users to create and distribute design systems through Adobe XD, access assets in Adobe Spark and connect to third-party apps like Google Workspace and other systems through open Library APIs for developers.

Versions in Cloud Documents: View, revert, and name past document iterations with automatic creation of Cloud Document file versions.

Invite to Edit: Access work anywhere and collaborate easily with Invite to Edit functionality, which will be coming early next year to tools like Fresco, Photoshop and Photoshop on the iPad.

Supercharge Creativity: Powerful New Tools to Create the Impossible

The company introduced hundreds of cutting-edge features built to help users take their creativity to greater heights. Integrated into many of Adobe's flagship products, boundary-pushing features showcased at MAX include:

Photoshop: Introduced in the Photoshop experience, Sensei-powered Sky Replacement, two new Refine Edge selections and the breakthrough Neural Filters open up a world of new possibilities for users to expand and elevate their creativity in a matter of seconds. These features offer new ways to reduce complex workflows while also giving access to a growing library of artistic filters to ignite ideas or refine images.

Illustrator and Illustrator on the iPad: Featuring a plethora of new ways to transform design ideas into beautiful, precise graphics, the 1.0 release of Illustrator on the iPad brings users the core toolkit and more, with 18,000 fonts and new features like radial, grid and mirror repeat. And on the desktop, the new Recolor Artwork feature lets users change entire color themes with just one click. When using Illustrator's desktop and iPad apps, creators will find a smooth cross-device experience that allows them to create a wide range of graphics, from a logo to a t-shirt illustration.

Fresco on the iPhone: The new Fresco on the iPhone offers users the same functionality they've grown to love on the iPad and on Windows touch devices. Powered by Cloud Documents, all Fresco projects are instantly available on all supported devices across desktop, mobile and tablet for a seamless multi-device experience.

Lightroom: Advanced Color Grading across the Lightroom ecosystem, the ability to save versions as you edit images and enhanced performance in Lightroom Classic.

Premiere Pro: Major performance improvements, alongside a preview of Sensei-powered Speech to Text, which automates speech transcription from vide
