Hello Latest Beta Build 30.7.83 is now available in CCD. We have the below fixes in this build:Blends-related fixes:Make button were showing disabled in some cases Number field for Steps dropdown were showing overlay while scrolling Easing option has been disabled for spine-less blends Steps slider overshoots easily and up/down keys stop responding until panel tab-cycledKnown Issue - More than 2 objects at a time can't make blend.Workaround - You can click on the previous object 1 more time and click on 3rd object or next to create blend.Concept to Vector Changes :Generate more variations in one go: Select multiple sample prompts and generate all variations with a single click. New AI model available: Choose the new GPT-2 model for Concept to Vector generations. Improved background handling: Concept to Vector now generates background-free results when your prompt requests them. Previously, prompts requesting no background produced outputs with a white background instead. Additional invocation points: Launch Concept to Vector directly from a selected image traced object (before it's expanded). Access the feature from the Contextual Task Bar, Properties panel, Control panel, and other supported entry points. Concept to Vector uses the original raster image as the source.UV Bugs:[Vote Count : 12] : Partial selection of points is lost (the whole object becomes selected) when Undo and/or Redo are used [Vote Count : 33] : Effects menu is smaller/larger than other menus on Windows with larger UI scaling Switching keyboard layout with Win32 API message hangs Illustrator.

ABOUT THIS ARTICLE  · 4 min read  · Published June 30, 2026    TL;DR:  Acrobat for Copilot lets you create, edit, organize, and extract information from PDFs using natural-language prompts inside Microsoft Copilot. No switching apps. It's available to all Adobe Acrobat users, including the free plan, in English across all regions where Adobe products are offered. You activate it by typing @Adobe Acrobat followed by your request.  Adobe Acrobat for Copilot is a Microsoft Copilot extension that lets you handle PDF work without leaving the chat. If you've ever had a document task interrupt your flow: combining files before a meeting, redacting a name before sending something along, converting a scan into something editable. This is built to close that gap. You stay in Copilot, type what you need in plain language, and Acrobat picks it up from there.This post walks through what the extension does, how it works, a few real use cases from Adobe's own documentation, and where to go if you want to try it or weigh in on what's next. Before you beginSign in with the Microsoft and Adobe accounts required by your organization or personal setup.

Adobe has released ColdFusion 2025 Update 10 and ColdFusion 2023 Update 21. The releases introduce some important advancements that reinforce a clear direction: secure-by-default behavior, tighter control, and better developer governance. Download the updatesColdFusion 2025 updates ColdFusion 2023 updatesThis update focuses heavily on addressing critical security concerns while also giving developers more control over how their applications interact with external systems, attachments, and XML processing.Security fixes and cumulative patchesBoth updates address multiple vulnerabilities that could result in arbitrary code execution, privilege escalation, and security control bypass.From an operational standpoint, this update is cumulative, which means patch adoption does not require sequential upgrades. However, teams skipping prior updates should account for behavioral changes introduced in intermediate versions, especially in areas that now enforce stricter validation.Attachment handling: Explicit allow-listing via acceptThe introduction of the accept attribute across Exchange-related tags (cfexchangemail, cfexchangecalendar, cfexchangetask, cfexchangecontact) and alignment with cfpop and cfimap formalizes attachment filtering as an application-level concern.At runtime, accept acts as an extension-based allow list, evaluated as a comma-separated set (for example, .pdf,.txt). This shifts attachment handling away from implicit acceptance toward deterministic filtering at the tag level.From an implementation perspective:Matching is performed against file extensions, not MIME types The evaluation occurs before attachment persistence, reducing downstream validation overhead It enables developers to enforce context-specific filtering policies per integration pointFiltering model: Dual-layer validation (allow list + block list)The filtering pipeline now follows a more structured evaluation model combining:Application-level allow list (accept) Platform-level blocked-extension listThe resolution logic is deterministic:If accept is not specified, only the blocked-extension list is enforced If accept="*", the allow list short-circuits validation and bypasses blocked-extension checks entirely If a file extension is explicitly declared in accept, it acts as an authoritative override, even if the extension is present in the blocked list In all other cases, the file must satisfy both the allow list and block list constraintsThe key implication here is that filtering is no longer purely defensive (block-based), but policy-driven, where application logic can selectively override platform defaults when required.A JVM-level override (-Dcoldfusion.attachment.allowblockedextensions) allows reverting to legacy permissive behavior.MCP Client: Multi-layer command authorizationNOTE: Only applies to ColdFusion 2025 Update 10Update 10 introduces a composable authorization model for STDIO MCP server command execution.Command execution is now governed by three independent sources: Server-level whitelist (security-settings.json) Enforces administrator-controlled baseline restrictions Deny-by-default model: commands must be explicitly enumerated Application-level whitelist (this.security.mcp.commandWhitelist in Application.cfc) Enables per-application scoping of allowed commands Inline whitelist (passed in MCPClient() / MCPServer()) Maintains backward compatibility with existing implementations These lists are merged at runtime using a union operation. A command is executable if it exists in at least one list.This design introduces a federated control model, where enforcement is distributed across infrastructure and application layers. However, it is important to note that restriction requires explicit exclusion from both server and application scopes, as the model is additive rather than restrictive.From a security perspective, this reduces the risk of arbitrary command execution while maintaining flexibility for dynamic integrations.XML processing: Saxon feature gating via JVM flagsColdFusion’s Saxon-based XML processing (XMLSearch, XMLTransform) now enforces feature-level restrictions using JVM flags, all disabled by default.The newly introduced flags gate access to:xsl:result-document → controls file write operations unparsed-text() → accesses external text resources doc(), doc-available() → loads external XML documents environment-variable() → exposes runtime environment variablesThese capabilities are disabled unless explicitly enabled via JVM configuration.This has several implications:Prevents data exfiltration via XSLT transformations Blocks access to file system paths and environment variables Eliminates implicit trust in transformation inputsDevelopers enabling these features must now explicitly evaluate the security risk vs functional requirement, making the configuration process intentional rather than implicit.Package updates and platform consistencyThe updates also include updates to multiple core packages, including administrator, ajax, exchange, feed, mail, and websocket modules.From a runtime and deployment perspective:No connector reconfiguration is required Package updates are applied alongside the core update Package rollback is decoupled from core rollback and depends on minimum core dependency constraintsThis ensures consistency across modules while maintaining compatibility boundaries.Download the updates and validate them in your staging environment. If you encounter any regressions or unexpected behavior after upgrading, report them through the Adobe support channel or your standard issue-tracking process, including relevant logs and reproduction details.

Hey all!Illustrator 30.6 is a focused release aimed squarely at the workflows that quietly eat up time - swapping a linked image across a multi-artboard file, aligning and distributing objects you reach for dozens of times a day, and getting precise spacing right the first time. This update lets you relink every instance of an image in one step, assign keyboard shortcuts to Align and Distribute commands, record those commands as Actions, and preview spacing before you commit. It also ships a solid batch of bug fixes. For more details, check out the release notes. Relink all instances of a linked image in a single stepWhen you replace a linked image, you can now apply that change everywhere the image appears in your file , across multiple artboards and repeated layouts, in a single step. No more hunting down each placement one by one.Learn how to relink images.Keyboard shortcuts for Align and DistributeYou can now assign custom keyboard shortcuts to Align and Distribute commands from Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts. The commands you use constantly are finally one keystroke away.Learn how to align and distribute objects.Record Align and Distribute as ActionsAlign and Distribute commands can now be recorded as Actions and reused across recurring workflows. Build them once and reuse consistent alignment and spacing across your files.Learn how to record and play Actions.Preview spacing before you distributeWhen distributing objects, you can now preview the spacing changes first, then apply them, fine-tune the value, and see how it affects your layout before committing.Learn how to distribute objects by specific distances.Fixed IssuesIllustrator 30.6 also resolves a range of issues reported by the community, including:Area Type Options incorrectly labeling vertical alignment as Center instead of Top. No overwrite warning when exporting a file with a name that already exists. The misspelled Spanish translation of "Flatten Transparency" in the View menu. The color sampling ring lagging when sampling colors for a gradient. Color Blindness Proof Preview disabling GPU rendering and causing performance issues. Spaces in numeric input fields not being ignored when entering values. Stacked dimensions responding slowly when working with artwork. Illustrator becoming unresponsive when opening files containing linked assets. The Open dialog appearing blank and opening duplicate windows. Illustrator no longer sharing color settings with other Adobe apps when saving. Width and Height values not staying linked when the link icon is active. Deselecting an artboard in the Artboards panel unexpectedly activating it.For the full list with linked bug reports, see the release notes.Get StartedExplore the latest updates and enhancements in Illustrator.

A quick note for our community members about two improvements that went live earlier today:  1. Search now stays within your community. Searching inside a community will, by default, return results only from that community, so you'll find what you're looking for without results from other communities mixed in. We're working with our platform partner on further refinements, but this improvement is now live and benefits everyone.2. Community context in email notifications. If you've subscribed to a specific section, email notifications will now show the community where each post was created. This is especially handy for our experts and super-users (thank you!). Our partner is also working to bring this to push notifications and other email notifications. Thanks for being here. We think these improvements are helpful, and more are on the way.Have a great weekend!

TL;DR: Admins can now create content retention policies to manage the lifecycle of Creative Cloud Projects stored in Adobe cloud for business. Define how long completed projects are retained before they're permanently deleted. This capability is available through the Adobe Admin APIs for Storage Management. Go to Admin Console What are the requirements?Your organization uses Adobe cloud storage for business with Creative Cloud Projects You have admin access to the Admin Console An authorized external system, such as a project management or workflow tool, is configured to signal project completion via the Adobe Admin API Why should admins set up WIP content retention?Admins can create one or more content retention policies to define how long Creative Cloud Projects are retained after being marked as complete, before they are permanently deleted. With WIP content retention, admins can:Create one or more retention policies for WIP content within an organization Modify policies at any time: extend or shorten retention periods, with changes applying to all active projects from each project's original retention start date Delete a policy to immediately stop enforcement without deleting any projects Manage precedence when multiple policies apply to the same project (earliest retention date wins) How does the retention lifecycle work?A Creative Cloud Project is considered marked as complete when it has reached the end of its working lifecycle and is no longer active work. This status is set through an integration with an authorized external system, which invokes the Adobe Admin API to start retention.Stage What happens Project marked complete Retention period begins Retention period ends Project is soft-deleted and moves to Deleted view 30 days after soft delete Project is permanently and irrecoverably deleted  Restoring a project: End-users can restore a soft-deleted project within the 30-day window. On restore, the project becomes active again. The original retention period does not automatically restart. Retention only re-applies if an admin explicitly re-associates a policy. If the project is subsequently marked as complete again by an authorized external system, a new retention period begins anchored to the new completion date. How do I get started?Review the API documentation and configure your policies through the Admin Console. View the Storage Management API documentation Already set up a retention policy?

Adobe Since NAB 2026 — What Editors Should KnowA lot was announced at NAB in April. A few months on, it's worth taking stock of what actually shipped, what's evolved, and what's now available to try — because the landscape looks meaningfully different from where it did on the show floor.Color Mode in Premiere (Beta) — Now Award-WinningThis was the headline at NAB, and it's held up. Color Mode won Best Software at NAB 2026, which is a meaningful signal for a feature that was still in beta at the time.If you haven't explored it yet, the short version: it's a full redesign of the color workflow inside Premiere — not an update to Lumetri but a dedicated grading environment built alongside working editors over several years.Key capabilities:32-bit color processing GPU acceleration (NVIDIA RTX) Dedicated workspace: Color Monitor, Clip Grid, Color Controls, Comparison View, Video ScopesIt's still in beta and the team is actively taking feedback. If you've been round-tripping to other tools for grading, this is the time to give it a serious look.Premiere Pro 26.3 — What's New Since NABNAB showed 26.2. Since then, 26.3 has shipped, and it's a solid update for day-to-day editing. Here are highlights of the releases:AudioGlobal Audio Mute — mute all audio tracks in one click, useful for focus editing or client screenshares without killing your sequenceCaptionsSingle Word Captioning — generates word-by-word captions with individual timing, designed for the animated caption style that's standard on social contentTimelineMarker Search — search and filter sequence markers by name or color; genuinely useful on longer timelines A/V Display Mode — toggle between audio-only, video-only, or combined timeline viewEffects & TransitionsNew built-in GPU effects: Channel Blur, Gradient, and Noise — no plugins needed New modern transitions: 3D Spinback and 3D SlideMedia & OrganizationStock Panel Checkout — license Adobe Stock assets directly from within Premiere Object Masking refinements (Sharp and Smooth modes, building on the NAB preview)These aren't headline features individually, but they compound. The caption and marker updates in particular are the kind of thing you notice immediately in real workflows.After Effects 26.2 — Deeper Than It LookedThe Object Matte feature got most of the attention at NAB, and it's still the standout — select a subject, track it automatically, refine as needed. For roto work it removes a significant amount of manual setup compared to Roto Brush.But the full 26.2 release included more than that:Displacement Maps — a long-requested effect for distortion and warping workflows Depth of Field for 3D layers — realistic camera depth of field in the 3D environment SVG import as native shape layers — SVG files come in as fully editable vector shapes, not rasterized Parametric Mesh scripting APIs — extended scripting control for mesh-based effects 2–4x faster 3D render speeds — real-world improvement, not just a spec numberThe render speed improvement alone makes 26.2 worth updating to if you're doing anything with 3D.Adobe Creative Agent — No Longer "Coming Soon"At NAB, the AI Assistant was listed as coming soon. It's now here.Adobe Creative Agent launched in public beta on June 18, 2026, available in Premiere, Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and Frame.io. After Effects is in private beta.In Premiere specifically, it's a conversational panel (Window > Assistant) that can organize footage, build bins, generate transcripts, create stringouts, and assemble rough cuts — all from plain language. Every action it takes goes into the undo/history stack, so nothing is hidden or locked.A few things worth knowing:Two permission modes: Always ask (step-by-step approval) or Auto approve (runs unattended) Daily complimentary credits during beta, separate from your paid Creative Cloud balance, reset at midnight GMT Not recommended for client work yet — test on duplicatesThe "conversational assistant across apps" vision from NAB is now a working tool you can open today in Premiere. The broader cross-app orchestration is still developing, but the foundation is live.Frame.io — Updates Since NABFrame.io has moved quickly since the NAB Drive announcement:Zero-click sign-in from Premiere — no more separate Frame.io authentication step when launching from Premiere Firefly assets in Frame.io — AI-generated content from Firefly is accessible directly in Frame.io projects Japanese localization — expanded language support Python and TypeScript SDK updates — for teams building custom integrationsFrame.io Drive (mount projects locally, work with media as if it's on your system) remains available for Enterprise, with broader rollout ongoing.Firefly Video Editor — ExpandingThe Firefly Video Editor has continued to develop as a standalone AI-assisted editing environment:30+ AI video models available, including Kling 3.0 and Omni Enhance Speech and audio cleanup built in Adobe Stock integration directly in the editor Basic color tools and one-click looksIf you previewed this at NAB and thought it felt early, there's more to see now.Where Things StandThe through-line from NAB to now is that most of what was previewed has shipped — Color Mode, the AI Assistant, After Effects 26.2, Frame.io updates. The direction was clear in April; the question was always about execution.A few things worth watching as the summer continues:Color Mode feedback is actively shaping the beta — this is a good window to influence the direction The AI Assistant is early and the team is iterating quickly based on community input Versioning and cut-downs in the AI Assistant are on the roadmap but not yet availableIf you've been holding off to see how things developed since NAB, this is a reasonable point to start testing.What's landed for you so far? Especially curious how Color Mode and the AI Assistant are holding up in actual projects.

📏 Changing Track Size in the TimelineTL;DRTrack height affects visibility, not playback or export Taller tracks reveal more waveform detail This is a timeline view preference — not a sequence setting Multiple methods exist: drag, scroll shortcuts, keyboard shortcuts, and saved presetsThe Common ConfusionUsers often assume track size affects:Audio loudness ❌ Waveform resolution ❌ Export output ❌It only affects what you see while editing.Why Adjust Track SizeIncrease track height to:Make waveform transients clearer Align edits more precisely Reduce eye strain on dense timelinesHow to Adjust Track HeightManual dragHover over the dividing line between tracks in the track header area and drag up or down. Easy to find, but harder to get consistent sizes across tracks.Double-click the track headerDouble-click the gray track header to toggle between standard and expanded height. Quick way to reset a track if it's gotten out of hand. Audio tracks will also expand to reveal their L/R channel breakdown.Scroll shortcutsShift + Scroll — resizes all tracks at once Shift + Ctrl (PC) / Shift + Cmd (Mac) + Scroll — same, but slower and more precise Alt (PC) / Option (Mac) + Scroll — resizes only the track under your cursor Alt/Option + Ctrl/Cmd + Scroll — single track, slow and preciseKeyboard shortcuts for video and audio separatelyCtrl/Cmd + Plus or Minus — increases or decreases video track height only Alt (PC) / Option (Mac) + Plus or Minus — increases or decreases audio track height onlySave a track height preset (power tip)Get your tracks sized exactly how you like them, then open the keyboard shortcut editor with Ctrl+Alt+K (PC) / Cmd+Option+K (Mac), search for "height," and assign a shortcut to your saved Track Height preset — something like Shift+Y. From then on, one keystroke snaps your timeline back to your preferred layout no matter how scrambled it gets.   📎 Resources:Edit Track AppearanceDefault Timeline preferences

Hey all—Wanted to flag something that might be relevant depending on the kind of work you’re doing:Frame.io now supports 3D assets directly in the player, which is a pretty meaningful expansion beyond video and design files.At a high level, you can now upload, view, and collaborate on 3D models in the same way you would any other asset. (help.frame.io) What this actually looks like in practiceOnce a 3D file is uploaded, it behaves pretty similarly to other media in Frame.io—but with a dedicated viewer: You can rotate and inspect the model interactively (click + drag, zoom, etc.) There’s a turntable-style control for reviewing all angles Comments and feedback stay tied directly to the asset You can version, share, and manage it like anything else in your project (help.frame.io) So instead of exporting stills or screen recordings for review, you’re working with the actual object. Supported formats (and what that really means)There’s pretty broad format support here, including things like: USD / USDZ GLB / GLTF FBX, OBJ, STL, STEP, and others (help.frame.io) A few formats are only partially supported, and some won’t render in the viewer at all—but can still be stored.The practical takeaway:If you want a smooth review experience, you’ll likely standardize around a couple of “safe” formats (USDZ / GLB feel like the obvious ones). Metadata is actually useful hereThis part stood out to me more than I expected.3D assets now include metadata like: Polygon count Mesh count Texture/material counts Physical size (help.frame.io) That starts to make Frame.io feel less like “just a viewer” and more like a lightweight way to track complexity and readiness—especially across teams. Where this could matterA few scenarios where this feels immediately useful: Product / industrial design reviews (instead of static renders) Motion + 3D pipelines where assets move between teams Marketing / brand teams reviewing 3D deliverables without specialized tools Client reviews where “seeing the object” matters more than a flat image It also continues the broader shift of Frame.io becoming less video-specific and more of a central place for all creative assets. (Adobe Help Center) A couple things I’m curious aboutThis is where I’d love to hear how others are thinking about it: Does this replace external 3D review tools for you—or just complement them? How important is format standardization in your current pipeline? Are clients actually comfortable reviewing 3D interactively, or do they still prefer renders? Where does this break down (large scenes, heavy textures, etc.)?  Feels like a small feature on the surface, but potentially a bigger shift if you’re working across 2D + 3D workflows.Curious how (or if) people are planning to use this 👇

Meet Premiere's New AI Assistant — and What It Can Actually DoAdobe just launched the AI Assistant for Adobe Premiere Pro in public beta, and it's a different kind of AI feature. Most AI tools in creative apps respond to a single prompt and hand you back a result. The AI Assistant orchestrates and executes — it understands what you're trying to accomplish, breaks it down into steps, picks the right Premiere tools, and carries out the work on your behalf, inside your actual project.This isn't a plugin or add-on. It's built directly into Premiere as a panel, accessed via Window > Assistant.Check out this tutorial with Javier Mercedes What It Can Do TodayThe current public beta focuses on project organization and assembly work — the time-consuming tasks that happen before the creative edit begins. You can direct the AI Assistant to:Create and organize bins, move and rename clips, apply color labels Generate transcripts and prepare footage for editing Detect slates and add markers Build a stringout or rough assembly and place organized media on a timelineThe output is a fully editable Premiere sequence. Nothing is locked or hidden — you can adjust it, re-cut it, or set it aside like any other timeline. Every action the assistant takes is recorded in Premiere's undo and history stacks, so you can step back through anything it changed the same way you step back through your own edits.What's not available yet: versioning, cut-downs, and support for reference documents like scripts or production notes. Those are on the roadmap.How It WorksOpen the Assistant panel, type what you need, and the assistant gets to work.The conversational workflow is designed for iteration. If the result isn't quite right, describe what's off and keep going — the assistant maintains a conversation history, and you can refine from where you left off. Start a new chat for each task or line of work using the + button; switch between open conversations using the tabs at the top of the panel.As the assistant works, you'll see its thinking in real time. Expand Reasoning on any response to see how it interpreted your request, what steps it planned, and which Premiere tools and AI models it used. This is useful for understanding why it did what it did — and for catching a misunderstanding early.Staying in ControlTwo permission modes let you decide how much the assistant does on its own:Always ask permission — the assistant checks in before making changes, so you can review each step before it happens Auto approve permission — it carries out the work without stopping to ask, useful once you trust it with a task and want it to run start to finishSwitch between modes anytime from the prompt bar. There's also a dedicated Undo button that resets everything the assistant changed in the last conversational turn — equivalent to stepping back through all its actions at once.The Self-Aware AssistantWhat makes this genuinely interesting isn't just task automation — it's how the assistant reasons about what it's doing. Creator Javier Mercedes, who tested the beta in depth, shared a moment that stuck with him: he asked the assistant to reposition a clip in the timeline. The assistant moved the clip, then paused and noted on its own that the repositioned clip might now conflict with adjacent music timing — something Javier hadn't mentioned. It flagged the problem before being asked.That kind of proactive reasoning is what separates an AI assistant from a macro. It's not just executing instructions; it's building a model of your project and flagging things a thoughtful editor would notice.Javier also used it to assemble a memorial video — a task with real emotional stakes and no room for a generic output. His takeaway: it genuinely accelerated the tedious structural work while leaving the creative judgment exactly where it belongs, with the editor.Who It's ForThe AI Assistant is genuinely useful at both ends of the experience spectrum.For newer editors, it lowers the barrier to getting a rough cut together from a pile of footage. You can describe what you want in plain language and get a structured starting point without needing to know every Premiere workflow by heart.For experienced editors, the value is in offloading the organizational work that consumes time before the creative edit begins. Bins, labels, transcripts, rough assemblies — you can delegate those and get to the decisions that actually require your judgment faster.Video editor and journalist Scott Simmons, writing at ProVideo Coalition, put it plainly: the question isn't whether AI will handle some of what editors currently do — it's how editors adapt to working alongside tools like this. His take is that the editors who engage early and develop a working vocabulary with AI tools will have a meaningful advantage. Using AI to free time for higher-level creative work isn't a threat to editorial craft; it's an extension of it.Beta Caveats Worth KnowingA few practical things to understand going in:Credits. During the beta, you get complimentary daily credits for AI Assistant use. These are separate from your paid Creative Cloud credit balance — they don't draw from it, and they can't be used elsewhere. Credits refresh automatically at midnight GMT if you reach the daily limit.Language. The assistant will try to respond in whatever language you use, but it's currently optimized for English.Don't use it for client work yet. Adobe explicitly recommends working with duplicates of your projects during the beta, rather than testing on work you can't afford to lose. It's a beta — treat it accordingly.AI models. The assistant uses a mix of Adobe Firefly models and partner models depending on your request. Outputs generated using Firefly are considered safe for commercial use. When using partner model outputs, you're responsible for determining whether they're appropriate for your project. Importantly, your content is not used to train generative AI models.Try ItThe AI Assistant is available now in Premiere Pro (beta).

 Substance 3D Painter 12.1 is here, and it brings some significant improvements to baking workflows, along with initial support for OpenPBR. Here's a rundown of what's new.  Auto Rebake Painter 12.1 introduces Auto Rebake, which automatically triggers a rebake whenever a change is detected, confining this to only the changed region rather than the project overall. This makes baking iteration significantly faster, particularly when working with skew corrections. Auto Rebake activates automatically when entering Skew Painting mode, but can also be toggled manually — and should you prefer full control, a new single-map quick rebake button is available, letting you rebake just the visible map without touching any other settings. Skew Map Painting  This release also brings in Skew Map Painting, a powerful new addition to the baking workflow that gives you direct, hands-on control over skewing artifacts — the distortions that can appear when baking low-poly meshes due to the angle at which rays are traced. A new dedicated mode lets you paint skew corrections directly onto your mesh, with affected areas automatically rebaking as you work. You can paint manually with a brush for precise control, or use the Polygon Fill tool to quickly correct entire polygons at once. An Edge Protection option is also available to prevent seams forming along mesh edges when filling larger areas, keeping results clean with minimal effort. OpenPBR Support Painter 12.1 also introduces initial support for OpenPBR, the open, cross-vendor standard for physically based material definition. This is part of a broader rollout across the Substance 3D ecosystem: OpenPBR is also now available in Substance 3D Designer 16 and Substance 3D Sampler 6, meaning artists can create materials once and use them with greater confidence across tools — reducing guesswork and improving consistency from look development through to final render. Adobe has also released a production-proven OpenPBR implementation as open source, available on GitHub. Baking Improvement Alongside the new baking features in 12.1, we've also taken the opportunity to revisit the UI and user experience overall of Painter’s Baking mode, addressing long-standing rough edges and general usability improvements that benefit artists at every level — making the mode easier to navigate for those new to baking, and smoother for veterans who know exactly what they need. Hard Surface Auto UV Unwrapping  Painter's automatic UV unwrapping — which generates UV layouts on import for meshes that don't have existing UVs — gains a new Hard Surface mode in 12.1, available in the auto-unwrap settings when creating a new project or re-importing a mesh. The new Hard Surface option minimizes UV distortion and produces orthographically-aligned UV layouts instead, making it a great fit for mechanical and hard-surface meshes. Painter 12.1 is available now — you can find more information in the release notes right here!
