Does Adobe Stock Create an HD version of 4K footage?

I'm working on my first contribution of footage shot in 4K. I've also rendered out the some clips as HD variants. Should I upload both versions or do I only need to upload the 4K version and you guys create an HD variant on your end?

Adobe takes you 4k footage and samples that down automatically. You only need to upload a 4k version. If, however, you use a codec with transparency masks, that will not be in the HD version, as Adobe uses a classic codec, with no alpha channel. 4k codecs with alpha channel are officially not supported, but they work. 

 

You cand upload a 4k version and a HD version, that may be considered as spamming.
