Students can access Adobe Creative Cloud on three computers in the C block computer Pod (C229) at Madras St campus, Christchurch. The Adobe enabled computers have a sticker on them "Adobe Creative Cloud". Their asset numbers are 

C229-65734
C229-65738
C229-65730

Note: If you only need to edit a PDF you can also use the following software available on all Ara computers:

Foxit Reader, which allows you to view, print, annotate, or sign PDFs.

PDF24, which can organise PDF pages (split, rotate, remove, rearrange pages), convert to different formats, extract images, annotate, perform OCR, redact / blacken parts for privacy and many others.

 Both applications are free, so you can also download and install them on your personal device if you wish.

Ask the Library Staff if you need more help.
