Major Announcement from Adobe - Change to Creative Suite Upgrade Policy - UPDATE
In December of last year Adobe communicated changes to the Creative Suite upgrade policy. Imagetext would like to take a moment to ensure you are aware of a recent update to this policy.
Adobe's new Creative Suite upgrade policy, which goes into effect when Creative Suite 6 is released, will require customers to be on the most current version of Creative Suite in order to qualify for upgrade pricing when new versions are released. This means that customers need to be on CS5 or CS5.5 in order to receive upgrade pricing when CS6 is released.
UPDATE: To ensure customers have sufficient opportunity to upgrade, Adobe will extend an introductory offer to CS3 and CS4 customers that will provide those customers with upgrade pricing when CS6 is released until 31st December, 2012. Customers who remain on CS2 or earlier will not be eligible for upgrade pricing for Creative Suite.
The 20% off Creative Suite Upgrades from CS2, 3 and 4 promotion will now run until 15th March 2012.
