Asset upload
If the user wants to take full advantage of the additional possibilities offered by Digizuite when working with the images in the Adobe CC products, it is possible to upload new assets into the DAM directly though the Adobe CC Connector.
...
The user can upload any assets from the local source by selecting "Upload from disk". This will bring forth the upload dialog box. After finding and selecting the files, clicking "Open" will start the upload process. Once the upload is finished, it will result in the appropriate message at the bottom of the application.
Upload active document
It is possible to upload the active document. The document must be saved before is can be uploaded. You have 2 options. Upload the document as a new asset in Digizuite or if the document is already a existing asset in Digizuite, then you have the option to replace the existing asset.
Using assets
The assets from the DAM displayed in the Adobe CC Connector can be used by simply clicking the use insert (1) button and then choose an quality (2). Detending . Depending on the application and the assettype we either open or place the file.
In case of InDesign, once the user has choosen a quality, the thumbnail of the image will become attached to it, until the user clicks on the spot on the page, where it should be placed. The user can also pre-select the spot, in which the image should be placed. If the goal is to replace another image already existing on the page, the user needs to click on it, and then click use and choose a quality from the connector.
In case of Photoshop and , Illustrator, AfterEfects or Premiere Pro the procedure is simpler and the user can simply click use on anasset an asset out of the Adobe CC Connector and the asset will be placed on the canvas.
Once the asset is placed on the page/canvas, the user can continue working with it like with assets from any other source.
Note about the asset quality inserted. In InDesign it will use the quality configured on the MM5 config manager (Creative cloud connector - Low insert quality). If this is not set or the asset does not have the specified quality, then it will default to the source. For all the other adobe supported products, source will be used.
