Adobe Muse available today

New software enables designers to publish professional HTML5 Web sites without writing code.

Cape Town, 28 Jun 2012

Dax Data, Adobe's leading distributor for southern Africa, has announced the availability of Adobe Muse software that enables designers to create Web sites without writing code.

Previously available as a public beta, Adobe Muse makes planning, designing and publishing original HTML pages as easy as creating layouts for print. With master pages, built-in tools for interactivity, and access to more than 400 Web fonts served by the Adobe Typekit service, Adobe Muse makes it easy to produce distinctive, professional Web sites.

Adobe Muse is only available through the Creative Cloud team ready offering; it provides creative access to innovative storage services, publishing services and essential creative applications, including the entire award-winning Adobe Creative Suite 6 product line.

Adobe Muse will feel immediately familiar, as it has some of the same features and keyboard shortcuts found in other software, like Adobe InDesign. Adobe Muse allows designers to easily add engaging, interactive elements such as slide shows and embed content from sources such as Google Maps and Facebook. Users can preview and test functionality of a Web site within Adobe Muse, or create a temporary site and share the URL with clients for review. When the site is ready to go live, designers can either host it using a third-party solution or use Adobe's flexible all-in-one hosting service. For countries where it is available, an Adobe Muse one-year subscription or Creative Cloud membership also includes some site hosting.

“There have been more than 700 000 beta downloads of Adobe Muse to date. We have incorporated feedback from our beta users into the first release of Muse, and the response has been very positive,” said Jeremy Matthews, MD of Dax Data. “Adobe Muse gives designers the freedom to build sites without having to learn code, which will help them expand their businesses and offer their clients more cost-effective, professional Web sites.”
