Working with Adobe Version Cue
About Version Cue
Version Cue is a file-version manager included with Creative Suite 3 Design, Web, and Master Collection editions
that consists of two pieces: the Version Cue Server and Version Cue connectivity. The Version Cue Server can be
installed locally or on a dedicated computer and hosts Version Cue projects and PDF reviews. Version Cue connec-
tivity, included with all Version Cue-enabled Creative Suite components (Acrobat, Flash, Illustrator, InDesign,
InCopy, Photoshop, and Bridge) enables you to connect to Version Cue Servers.
Use Version Cue to track versions of a file as you work and to enable workgroup collaboration such as file sharing,
version control, backups, online reviews, and the ability to check files in and out. You can organize Version Cue-
managed files into private or shared projects.
Version Cue is integrated with Adobe Bridge: use Bridge as a file browser for Version Cue projects. With Bridge, you
can access Version Cue Servers, projects, and files, and view, search for, and compare information about
Version Cue-managed assets.
Use Version Cue Server Administration to create and manage user access, projects, and PDF reviews; administer
backups; export content; and to specify advanced Version Cue Server information.
