THE CREATIVE CLOUD WORKSPACE
Your subscription to Creative Cloud comes with new interface options and features. Most
of the time, you can run Illustrator CC without being connected to the internet or logged
into your Creative Cloud account. However, some options require that you are both online
and signed into Creative Cloud. For example, in order to receive notification of available
updates, to sync your settings, post to Behance, or use Typekit fonts (see the
Designing
Type and Layout
chapter for more on this), you'll need to have an active connection to your
Creative Cloud account.
In addition to discussing new CC settings and services that are integrated with Illustrator,
this section will also cover updates to the way Illustrator CC itself looks and functions,
including HiDPI (high DPI) compatibility for Windows 7 & 8 (support for retina displays
was added in CS6), creating a Custom Tools panel, and new implementation of keyboard
modifiers for added functionality.
Adobe Add-ons is the new online mar-
ketplace for plug-ins, scripts,
and other assets offered
through the Adobe Exchange
