Hello, we work with Software-as-a-Service (Microsoft). So I can't download the applications as desktop version. How do we have to proceed? Especially with InDesign.

Hi @René28924135ylp9,

Could you share what solution did you guys settle upon and the ideas behind it. This would be helpful for someone else in the same situation.

We have stored the desktop applications locally. This works in our case, because for the time being only one person has to work with it. No other solution is apparent at the moment. I hope Adobe will offer appropriate cloud solutions in the near future.

What is your use case of InDesign? Probably you could look at InDesign Server, it is a no UI variant of InDesign. It can be used as a Windows service or launched via command prompt.

You have to subscribe and download and install InDesign (via CC Desktop App).No other way to work with.
