On CC trial, is PS and Illustrator output watermarked?

I own a very old version of the Adobe creative suite, probably version 4...somewhere (I've moved and who knows where the CDs are). New computer, and I need to do a quick picture edit. If I download and use the Creative Cloud 7-day trial, will my output (Photoshop and Illustrator), be watermarked in any way? Adobe says that "some" programs in the trial version have watermarks, but doesn't say which.

Thanks.

kglad, are you certain of that? Because it's either spend some time downloading the CC apps and familiarizing myself with them, or tackling the Gimp/Inkscape learning curve. I won't have time to do both.

I'd hate to waste my opportunity for a 7 day trial of CC only to not be able to print my invitations after all.

yes, it's been the same for years. suite programs (eg, ps and ai) only have a time limitation.

you can post on those two forums if you want to get other opinions.

Curious where it says some programs will have watermarks. Do you have a URL?

My guess is they're talking about Adobe Stock photos, which you can search for from within the programs (the Help menus or the Library panels (called CC Libraries in InDesign) and then drag/drop onto your documents. Those will carry the Adobe Stock watermark until you license them. A subscription to Adobe Stock does *not* come with CC subscription, unfortunately. But you can use the watermarked files all you want for proofs.

there are none in cc apps. there are some adobe non-suite programs that do add a watermark with the trial.

no.

i don't think any of the cc suite of program trials adds any limitation (other than the ability to use for 7 days) vs the full programs.
