Adobe Gives Kuler a Major Update

1

Adobe has announced a set of major updates to Kuler, its cloud-based application for creating color themes. The Kuler Web app has been revamped to be responsive and optimized for the latest browsers. Also, a brand new free Kuler iPhone app has been released which will allow users to grab color inspiration from anywhere. With the updates, Kuler users will be able to sync and immediately use color themes in Illustrator CC.

“With the new Kuler iPhone app and tablet-friendly website, designers and color enthusiasts can extract colors from virtually any scene: a piece of art, a garden, an outfit in a fashion store,” says Jill Soley, director of product management for Touch Apps and Services at Adobe. “With nearly a million members to date, Kuler has been a favorite of designers for several years to enhance creativity and gain inspiration. The new features in this offering, such as Sync Colors, make it easy to bring inspiration into real work.”

    Here’s something that really amazed me: If you click on the little triangle to the left of the RGB field, it shows CMYK (and other spaces). If you fill in CMYK values, kuler remembers them now! For a long time, Kuler was RGB only (even if it showed CMYK values). But when I do that and download an ASE file, and load that into InDesign, they’re specced as CMYK! Woo hoo!
