Welcome to Adobe

The university offers licenses for either Adobe Acrobat Pro or Adobe Creative Cloud to CU Anschutz faculty and staff.

With Acrobat Pro, you can create and edit PDFs, compress and split PDFs, delete pages, extract pages, insert new pages, reorder pages, request signatures, fill and sign, prepare a form, share, send for comments, and compare files.   

Creative Cloud empowers you to create stunning digital media with apps such as Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Premiere Pro, Adobe Express, and more.

 

To Request an Adobe Creative Cloud or Adobe Acrobat License

 

Renewals

Licenses are active for one year from July 1 through June 30. Faculty and staff will not have to request Adobe accounts each year. Current account holders will receive a renewal email from OIT in June to ask if you have any changes or would like to cancel your account. If you do not answer, your Adobe account will be automatically renewed and billed to the SpeedType provided at signup.



Student Workers

Departments and Centers can procure an Adobe Creative Cloud license for a student employee or worker by completing the request form and providing a SpeedType for that student. The department and/or center is responsible for managing the license and opting out of renewal when the student leaves their position or no longer requires the software. 

 

To Access

When you submit the order, a service invoice will be created. You will receive a receipt email from OnTheHub, followed by a message from Adobe confirming your approval for an Adobe license. You can then access the Adobe Creative Cloud or Adobe Acrobat Pro software by visiting the Adobe website: https://www.adobe.com.
