Hi @Maytham and @mathilde_9839, 

 

Thank you both for reaching out!

 

To address your queries, yes, there is a "BETA version" of InDesign for ARM processors available in the Creative Cloud "Beta section", but it is currently limited to "English (EN) locales". If you're not seeing it in your apps list, please ensure that your locale is set to English. For now, this BETA version isn't available in other languages, including French.

 

As for Illustrator, like mentioned earlier, it's not available for ARM processors just yet. You can stay updated or ask more about it on our dedicated "Illustrator community page": Illustrator - Adobe Community

 

Let me know once you've set your locale to English, and I’ll be happy to assist further!

 

Thank you,  
Abhishek Rao

Hi Abhishek,

thanks for your answer!

I did not mention that I alrrady had configured my account preferred langage to english (US).

I'm wondering if it  is a system requirement issue since my X1P64100 processor has 10 cores while minimum system requirement is 12 : Snapdragon X Elite X1E-78-100 (up to 3.4 GHz, 12 cores).

Regards,

Marc

Hi @mathilde_9839,

 

Thanks for your response!

 

The issue might indeed be related to regional settings. The beta app is currently available for English locales such as the USA. If your Adobe account region/ country settings don’t match these locales, it could affect its availability.

 

Best regards,

Anshul saini

Hi,

I also have bought z surface pro 11 and saw here  than there is a beta version available for ARM processors.

However it does not show up in the apps list.

According yo the page note the processor type is not compatibkle (min 12 cores).

Is there a workaround ?

Thanks
