Hi,

I am unable to ascertain if CC2022 (InDesign 17) is officially GA'ed or not. For a start, I don't see the CEP table reference InDesign 17 (it is only upto 16.3), and hence I think it is not yet GA'ed. If that's correct, do we have a tentative timeline about the official release?

Also, will CC2022 be supporting Monterey?

Thanks,

It is officially released, but not sure if it's ready for all systems. I've been seeing a lot of problems on the forums with the latest Mac OS and with the Mac M1 chip. If using either of those items, I would wait a while.

(I've had not problems on my Windows systems.)

I'm sure you know this, but for others...

I would change my CC app preferences so it won't remove old versions and make sure one works on copies of files. That way, I can always play with the new version but jump back to the previous version and original file for actual work.

Excellent advice from @Dave Creamer of IDEAS.

I switched to primarily Windows workstations for 2 reasons:

Better, more stable software from Adobe. (I really got tired of crashing 1-2 times a day on my super-Macs.)
Ability to use a full-size touch screen computer, like a SurfacePro or Dell Inspiron or XPS.

I'm never EVER going back to a non-touch screen computer. I'm amazed at what I can do in Illustrator and Photoshop on a full computer with a touch screen...while lounging on the sofa because they work like tablets, too.

Software is the same on both platforms. And my money can buy a bigger, faster computer for Windows than for Mac.

Nope, this former Apple dealer and Apple devotee is never going back!

I have also always pushed Windows on my pre-press clients. As Bevi mentions, you get much better HW specs for the same budget.

Also Windows is wildly backwards compatible. It seems that all my MacOS clients are in a state of pandemonium anytime the MacOS moves to a different beach or skip resort and increase the build number by 0.01 and render half their installed software unuseable. Meanwhile, on my Windows 10 workstation, I am able to support clients using 20 year-old software (like QuarkXPress 5.0).

Here, in France, my users started seeing ID2022 available for installation, on October 27.
