Probleme beim Sstarten von InDesign CS2 [CS2 is dead]

[puds1]

Hallo,

ich bekomme nach der Installation von InDesign CS2 folgende Meldung, wenn ich InDesign CS2 starten will:

"Es fehlen für AdobeInDesign erforderliche Systemschriftarten oder Cmap-Dateien. Installieren Sie InDesign erneut"

Was tun?

[Bill Silbert]

What operating system are you trying to install on? InDesign CS2 is about 15 years old and its activation servers were shut down about 8 years ago. You will not be able to install it on any current operating system.

I am using windows 10 in the 64 bit Version.

But what has it to do with the missing fonts?

Hi there,

Thanks for reaching out. Bill is absolutely correct. I am afraid Adobe InDesign CS2 was never designed or tested for Windows 10 OS. We'd request upgrading your Adobe InDesign app for better performance and stability.

Hi Ashutosh and Bill_Silbert.,

and sorry for my late reply.

I downloaded it from here. They say, it´s compatible whith w10.

https://www.chip.de/downloads/Adobe-InDesign-CS2-Vollversion_59763254.html.

Why do they offer/enable InDesign CS2 for downloading, if it doesn´t work?

Kind regards

That's not an Adobe site and CS2 wasn't even compatible with Windows 7! It's an illegal download.

chip.de is a well-known computer magazine in Germany with a good reputation. I cannot imagine, that they offer illegal downloads. But I asked them already and we will see what they answer me.

Kind regards

It not mean that you're used it IDCS2 as legal user. Sad, but true: if you not buy it early — you not allowed juridically to install and work whith program.

Correct – CS2 was never free, nor authorized for use without a valid license... Here is an article from that time:
