Here’s a nifty little Adobe Air application that allows you to look up keyboard shortcuts for any Adobe software. Well, at least Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, Flash, Dreamweaver, Soundbooth, Fireworks, Contribute, After Effects, Premiere Pro, Encore and Acrobat Pro. The shortcuts are only for the CS4 versions of these applications.

Adobe Shortcuts App runs on Adobe Air, so it’s cross-platform (Mac, Windows, Linux).

Below you’ll see three tabs for Essentials, My Favorites, and All Categories. Be sure to click the speaker icon in the bottom-left to turn off the “interesting” sound effects…

Best of all, it free from the Adobe Marketplace. Download the Adobe Shortcuts App here.

  • How much of the shortcuts are relevant to CS3?
  • niceness... now if only i could work out how to alternate between photoshop files like you can in every other program :P
  • brian
    ctrl + tab ? (windows)
  • In Photoshop CS4, it's Command + ` (the backtick/tilde key)
  • liqwidfx
    Command + ` (for mac)
  • I haven't even downloaded this, yet, but it sounds awesome!
  • ramakrishna
    sir do you want any business cards of screen printing, multi color printing I am from india send your design I send on corier at best prise. I am work at home
    thank you sir
  • For once Adobe is actually doing something useful instead of just regurgitating the same bloated software with useless new "features".
  • I believe this was developed by some students, not Adobe :)
  • stuart
    Oh grow up. If it wasn't for the bloated software you'd still be using Corel. You Tortured Woebegone Artistic Type
  • I find it ironic that the guy telling me to grow up is the one talking shit anonymously because I have an opinion about an Adobe product. Probably works for Adobe and knows that their days at the top of the heap are numbered.
  • stuart
    No Geoff, I'm a designer. No association with Adobe, just a happy customer. So you'd prefer Clunk HopeLess & Corel Whore? Try Crayola.
  • Tu-Be
    stuart, it sounds like you're a crybaby designer who has nothing better to do than come on a site and get all butthurt because someone has an opinion. You just come off as a jealous douche. I guess if you were more successful you'd be too busy working to actually come and stir up an argument. Sad, man.
  • looks good. going to give it a try. thanks for sharing!
  • I yet not tried but it seems excellent so gonna try it out.
  • jaydenlawson
    great idea!
  • Guest
    I'll never be frustrated again because I cant remember my shortcuts thanks to Adobe Shortcuts App!
  • And I totally forgot to mention this one. I already have it and it is GREAT.
  • Eckstatic
    Awesome find - I can't believe I haven't hear about this until now, no more reviewing PDF's when I forget that little used shortcut command.

    Great post guys.
  • Is there a shortcut in Illustrator that selects the next text field so Im not constantly have to click through them?
  • Are you talking about fields on a toolbar, like being able to jump to the next field on the CMYK color toolbar? If so, the Tab button will jump from field to field.
