What’s New in CC vs. CS6? A Version Comparison
Some key elements of what’s new with Adobe CC generally:

• A slick and solid new Creative Cloud Desktop App that unobtrusively replaces both the Adobe Application Manager and the Creative Cloud Connection, and does file versioning too.
• Cloud-based syncing and sharing of all your customized tool settings like preferences, presets, brushes, shortcuts, workspaces, styles, fonts, colors, and more.
• The ability to share and publish your work directly from within your creative tools up to Behance in the Cloud as desired.
• 680 individual Typekit fonts will now be downloadable and installable locally on your desktop (a nearly $25,000 value if purchased commercially).
• Customers with annual memberships will be now able to use all CC products for up to 99 days offline without revalidation or needing to be connected to the Internet (eventually to be 180 days).
• The new CC apps will install and work alongside any older versions of Adobe software like CS6, CS5, etc., and will be able to backsave or export to CS6 file formats.
• In fact, Creative Cloud members will have access to download and install prior versions from an archive of selected desktop releases starting from CS6 onwards.
