Download Adobe Photoshop CS2 9.0.1

Adobe has released a patch for Photoshop 9, also called Photoshop Creative Suite 2. The patch has been made available for Windows and Mac OS X and causes the version number of the program to be increased to 9.0.1. Adobe’s Photoshop is one of the most popular image editing software on the market. The program offers several powerful options for editing images and photos. The successor to Photoshop CS2 is called – how could it be otherwise – Photoshop CS3 and is expected sometime in the second quarter of 2007. Adobe has documented the following changes in 9.0.1:

The most significant fixes in the 9.0.1 release include the following:

• Photoshop no longer hangs for several seconds when using painting tools with quick strokes.
• A runtime error that could appear when mousing over a high-res document with the Brush tool has been fixed.
• Documents containing a large number of text layers now open more quickly.
• Problems related to palettes (slow redraw, palettes go white, possible crash) have been addressed.
• TIFF files from certain scanners can now be opened correctly.
• After editing an image in Photoshop CS2 via the TouchUp tool in Adobe Acrobat software, the image no longer gets repositioned.
• XMP metadata from AI and PDF files is now retained in Photoshop.
• Slow performance when toggling layer visibility has been fixed.
• Info palette numbers are now displayed and updated when moving a curve point in Curves via the cursor keys.
• Problems opening certain TIFF and PSB files greater than 2GB have been resolved.
• The Merge to HDR command now functions properly when using high-ASCII characters in user login.
