Difference betweeen Photogaphy (20gb) and photoshop plans

[Dustin98BC]

I am trying to save money and find the best plan for me. My use case is I buy books to read online but a few have been just .png or .jpegs for each page and I am trying to make them into PDF to have less files and save space. I know Acrobat is the go to for PDF creating but it does not like to work with images that are differnt file times than .jpeg from what I have tested with (Correct me if im wrong about that). So I need something to batch convert .png to .jpeg and photoshop has that ability as well as being able to create PDFs aswell.

When looking at the plans I see there is "Photogaphy (20gb)" CAD  $12.99 and "Photoshop" CAD $ 27.99 and that Photoshop is included in both what is the difference between the two versions of photoshop? Is there a more cost effective method to do what I am trying?

I have the Photography Plan (20Gb) and find it so easy that Lightroom-CLASSIC can export PDFs from the Print Module and the Book Module. I simply select all the photos for the PDF, open the Print module, set a template that I like, then 'Print' to PDF (using a 3rd party PDF 'Printer', or the WiIndows 'Microsoft Print to PDF' 'Printer'.  Macs also have a PDF option in the printer dialog)

Or design a 'Book' in Lr-CLassic and export the pages as a PDF.

Photoshop can also create PDFs (but not as easy as Lr-Classic!)

I would Recommend the "Photogaphy (20gb)" CAD $12.99 as the best value. You get 'Full' Photoshop & ACR, Lightroom-Classic, access to all Lightroom-Mobile Apps, a Portfolio website, Adobe Bridge, etc.

Here is my quick PDF viewed in Foxit Reader--

And you can be creative in the Lr-Classic Print module!

The difference is what is available to you. With single app subscription you get 100GB storage plus plus... Please read description below. Otherwise software is exactly the same with the same features.

Photoshop Single App
Edit, composite, and create beautiful images, graphics, and art on desktop and iPad. Includes Photoshop on desktop and iPad, 100GB of cloud storage, Adobe Fresco, Adobe Portfolio, Adobe Fonts, and Adobe Spark.

Creative Cloud Photography Plan (20 GB)

All the essentials to organize, edit, and share photos on your desktop and mobile devices.  Includes Lightroom with 20GB (or more) of cloud storage, Lightroom Classic, and Photoshop.

When looking at the plans, I see there is "Photogaphy (20gb)" CAD $12.99 and "Photoshop" CAD $27.99 and that Photoshop is included in both – what is the difference between the two versions of photoshop?

There is no difference in the version of Photoshop that you get – it's the same app in both cases.

As Bojan points out, the single-app Photoshop plan includes the full version of Adobe Fresco, plus more online cloud storage. It can also be purchased month-to-month, whereas the Photography plans cannot.

By contrast, the Photography plan includes Lightroom and Lightroom Classic, and is offered only as an Annual (12-month) subscription.

This plan comparison table should make everything clearer.

Generally, most customers find one of the three photography-related plans to be of better value – but it depends on your needs.

That's a nice chart, @ProDesignTools ,

Thanks, Jane! Amazing that something like that hadn't existed previously.

These plans can be confusing, and if we had a quarter for every time someone (rightly) asked the difference... 🙂

Nicely done, Jim, I'll remember it!
