Johan Sandoval a5c0a5210e Knowledge base: /docs/<title> permalinks, search, categories, count, better PDF
Articles get their own address (shareable, back/forward work); the list is
searchable by title and text, shows the article count, and is grouped into
Applications and Troubleshooting & Guides via a hidden category line set
from the editor. PDF export lays out at page width with page breaks, a title
block and page numbers; Print uses the browser's vector print. Inline code
is a pill that glows blue on hover, blockquotes no longer squeeze, and
GitHub-style [!NOTE] alerts render. [[Badge]] syntax inside code spans is
left alone.

Adobe Creative Cloud

Creative Cloud apps (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, ...) are installed through the Creative Cloud Desktop app after the user signs in.

Install

  1. Install Adobe Creative Cloud from Software Center.
  2. Have the user sign in with their company account.
  3. From the Apps tab install only what was on the old device. The All Devices page in USMT Dash lists them under Missing Software.

Note

Expect 5-20 GB per app. Check free space on the destination before starting.

Fonts and Presets

  • Synced fonts return automatically after sign-in.
  • Local presets, brushes and swatches are in %AppData%\Adobe\. USMT migrates these, but verify on first launch.

Troubleshooting

  • "You don't have access to manage apps": the user's license isn't assigned. Contact the license owner.
  • Install stuck at 0%: sign out of Creative Cloud, delete %LocalAppData%\Adobe\OOBE, reboot and retry.
