Because I see no place on the Adobe Web site to post a question of this sort, I'm asking it here:

Am I the only one out there who thinks it's outrageous that customers who are updating to InDesign CS5 have to pay $50 for the help manual? Since when does software not come with built-in help or online access to help? I'm speechless at the corporate greed. And I don't expect this comment to remain long on this site.

All products come with help... that is still the F1 key

The PDF user guide is also available on the install disc for every product

You clearly did not find this http://www.adobe.com/support/indesign/ which has a link on the left for "getting started and tutorials" and "Indesign CS5 Help"

I was told specifically by the salesman that there was no help available for

this product unless I purchased the manual. Was I lied to?

So the salesman outright lied to me. Outrageous.

To be fair, Adobe is such a huge entity, the salesperson simply may not have known and could stand some education about the products.

Besides, they do offer a 30 day trial before you choose to commit to a purchase. During the 30 days you surely would have discovered the Help system and associated PDF.
