Adobe is making it easier for the creative types who use Photoshop, Illustrator, and Fresco to collaborate via a newly announced feature. Creators will invite others to work on the same file while using either of the three apps using a feature called “invite to edit,” originally announced in October.
This feature is expected to make it easier for creatives to collaborate, especially those who work in teams. However, it’s asynchronous editing meaning only one person can work on a document at one time. In case one collaborator is working on the shared document, the other must wait or be given a choice to copy the entire file to edit it on their own.
Although, according to Adobe, they will still open the work that is being worked on live. Invite to edit will work across multiple platforms, including desktop, iPad, and iPhone (Fresco).
Before you get excited about the feature, it only works with two file formats; .PSD or .AI. And it only works for files stored on Adobe’s Cloud.
Invite to edit is already rolling out to Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and Fresco, so update your app ASAP!
Adobe has also announced Preset syncing in Photoshop on Mac and Windows. With Preset Sync, creatives can be sure to have their brushes, swatches, gradients, patterns, styles, and shapes with them wherever they go without carrying their specific work device.
