I’ve managed to install Acrobat Reader 9.5.5 (the last available version for Unix) and make it open these files on both Debian and Ubuntu machines. Those files demand the latest version of Adobe Reader not available for Linux platform and a module for Chinese Traditional language support. Today, a friend of mine (recently converted into a Linux user) asked me for help with opening PDF files from CIC (Citizen and Immigration Canada) website. It's a nice product, but having the choice to use Photoshop, I won't move on for now.How to install Adobe Reader on Debian Linux (multiarch) I concluded, that it is not a replacement for Photoshop.
I do not know about Darkroom, but I looked at Gimp some time ago. If you get a huge user base on Linux, that you can start dreaming. What most people do not consider is the number of resources, you need to put in to support an OS. I don't know the customer base, but it may well be that Substance won't survive on Linux. Substance is on Linux because it supported Linux before Adobe acquired the company. I want to avoid disappointing you, but Linux is not gaining market share in the workstation market. But the desktop market is dominated by Microsoft Windows (10 and 11) and macOS (soon to be exclusively on Apple Silicon). In web servers it is unbeatable, the number one on the market. Linux is well established in some niche markets, like supercomputers, servers, and the like.
Two years later, we switched from SGI to Windows workstations. I can well remember a time, where, 30 years ago, I could have acquired a Photoshop version for my IRIS Workstation (IRIS was SGI's version of UNIX). macOS is also based on UNIX, if I remember well, it's a BSD kernel, but nobody here would say that macOS is UNIX. While true but if you look at the total OS on all platform you will see Android/Linux has over 80% of the market share.īy is not Linux.
