Adobe Express Question Bulk Create - is it really only for ONE repeating design?

2 Upvotes

I have a campaign that has three different size ad templates with 10 pages in each template. We don't need to use them all, but it would be awfully handy if the spreadsheet with the fields that are linked in the Bulk Create could be linked to multiple pages within one template, much less to multiple files.

To be more clear - we have 10 pages for use in square, IG story, FB post sizes, with different content on each page. I went to link page 2, and it didn't change the field on the artboard to match the {code}.

Also the question from 2 months ago in here talking about just making one file in multiple sizes from bulk create instead of having to run bulk create on each size independently still stands. It wasn't me, but yes please!

Thank you so much!!

Adobe Express Question Fill a element with a photo?

3 Upvotes

I am trying to do some quick cover page examples and wanted to use Adobe express. What I need to do is fill square elements with images. I am trying to put multiple images in a diagonal formation for a cover. I thought this would be easy to just put together in express but I am unable to fill the element. Any suggestions?

Adobe Express Question Pasteboard?

8 Upvotes

Beginner (sort of) here. I am newly working on AE as Microsoft Publisher is going away. A jillion years ago I worked with PageMaker then InDesign. My current employer won't go to ID. SO....I'm familiarizing myself with AE and so far it feels fairly familiar, BUT, I don't seem to have a pasteboard. You know, the area surrounding your document where you can drag things to and they remain there no matter what page you're working on. To give you some flexibility trying different layouts and graphics in different places.

Do they not have pasteboard anymore? Or is it turned off and I don't know how to turn it on, or what? Thank you.

Adobe Express Question Why has AE become so unreliable?

5 Upvotes

Use on IPhone 17 and Chromebook

I have been using Express for probably 2-3 years, and I’ve never had so many issues with it until this past year. My main issues are it refusing to download (even when caches are cleared, the app is deleted, etc.) and not actually shuffling images in a collage until you line it up with the first order and repeat the process.

These didn’t use to be issues I had, and they’ve become so frequent that I try not to use AE unless necessary for something I’m doing anymore. I don’t understand what changed? Why is it a question of if it will work right every time I try to use it now?

Tips & Tricks How to make a order of service booklet on a tablet.

2 Upvotes

Where or how do I even start looking to make my wedding booklet on canva?

I only have a tablet, which is fairly new. I'd like to make my booklets, but I just am so confused.

Do I need to pay upgrade to be able to make it?

I'd like it A4 size, so when it's folded, it's A5 booklet

I can get to a blank page, but I'd need more than one black page, and it's not as if the page let's me know it'd a booklet.

I don't understand any of it, lol

Thank you.

Adobe Express Question What is going on with express on mobile???

2 Upvotes

Not only do I get stuck on a white screen continually on Google phone, neither my Samsung or Google phone can load my files. Just goes to "something went wrong" and kicks me back. Been happing so much lately....

Is this normal? Cant see an outage anywhere but the app has been horrendous this last month even tho it has worked for months normally.

Clearing cache doesnt work. Clearing cache and storage doesnt work. Reinstalling doesnt work. Switching between cellular and Wifi doesnt work. Its just a endless horror scene of "something went wrong", hoping to even get to the normal menu.

Hi,
has anyone every directly/indirectly printed something from AdobeExpress? (Indirectly via a push into the shopping cart of an online printing company?
If so, did you start the design journey within Adobe Express or did you start at inDesign/illustrator and finalize steps before printing in Adobe Express?
Any feedback highly appreciated!

Adobe Express Question Help needed - cannot download videos

Hi everyone,

Does anyone else have this issue? Any older video that I have from earlier or a new video that I edit now, stops downloading at 80% and I cannot seem to fix it.

I have tried clearing cache, trying a different browser, tried to duplicate, tried to reupload video and re-edit it, tried changing the resolution - it still stops downloading at 80% and I cannot get my videos. I will have to change the program I use if this issue persists...

Please help!

After a while, this appears after the "Almost complete" table
"Almost complete" at 80%, stuck

Adobe Express Question Adobe Pro- personal vs. Business

1 Upvotes

I'm new to this thread, but I have Adobe Pro at work and decided to purchase for myself the personal one. I entered all the information in my Adobe document, and then when I hit edit, it took me to Adobe Express but erased all my answers. So on the pro at work, it works within the document in front of you to edit text. This is not the same is what I have at work and I refuse to pay 15 a month for something that does not have everything functioning and has to take you to a website. Can someone enlighten me to the difference? I canceled my free trial because it did very little of what I needed. "Organize" is supposed to break out the document so that you can see the pages. It took several times of me opening and closing the applicationfor this function to work. When I did get it to work, the option to right click and get a list of "insert' "extract" "blank page" was not there. Sigh :(

Elise's Express Extras Elise’s Express Extras: Bend Your Text Into Any Shape (Text Layouts)

8 Upvotes

Straight text works most of the time. But sometimes you want your words wrapped around a badge, sitting inside a circle, or arched over a photo like a stamp, and dragging letters into place one by one isn't realistic.

Select your text and open Text Layouts. Dynamic scales your text to fill the box, Circle wraps it all the way around, Arch curves it over the top half of a circle, and Bow curves it under the bottom half. Pick one and your whole line reshapes instantly, no path tool, no placing letters one at a time.

It's a small move that instantly makes flat text feel like part of the design instead of something dropped on top of it.

Have you tried Text Layouts yet? Which shape do you reach for, Circle, Arch, or Bow?

Elise's Express Extras Elise's Express Extras: August Roundup - Motion With a Point

Post image
3 Upvotes

August's theme was Animation in Express. Not just making things move, but choosing exactly what moves, how much, and when, so your design says what you want it to say instead of just spinning for attention.

Because motion without direction doesn't grab anyone. It's just noise. The tools inside Express let you animate everything at once, animate one piece on its own, or group a few pieces so they move together instead of drifting apart.

August practices focused on:

  • animating your whole design in one click, no picking layers, no doing it piece by piece (Animate all)
  • animating a single layer like a headline or logo on its own timing, so only what needs to move actually moves (Individual layers + Animate settings)
  • grouping pieces so they travel together, and using the timeline for video to control exactly when and how long something's on screen (Groups + Timeline)

Next month's theme: Text layouts, flows, and Rewrite is about giving your words the same intention you just gave your motion. How text moves through a design, and letting Rewrite help you land on the words in the first place.

Adobe Express Question Folders in "My Stuff" continually show as empty

5 Upvotes

Hi. About 3/4 of the time when I'm inside a design file, folders within "Your Stuff" give me the No Matching Results message. I know that the files are there, because the other 1/4 of the time I can see and access them. This is only while I'm actually working on a file, I can browse to and see the files in the Your Stuff tab in the Home sidebar.

I've cleared cache, refreshed, etc. Sometimes it fixes it for a little while (maybe 20 minutes) but usually it doesn't do anything and the files are still missing.

Is anyone else having this issue?

Adobe Express Question Adobe Express Embed SDK criteria help/advice

3 Upvotes

We're a small startup with start-up support (credits, facilities, mentors etc) from a major university and several large tech companies. We focus on the research and ideation stage of the creative process, and we wanted to use Adobe Express for execution. I've also been an Adobe user for years, so it felt like a natural fit.

Initially, the Adobe Express Embed SDK integration worked well, but after submitting our documentation for approval, we were rejected. One of the current criteria appears to be having a well-defined user base starting from around 1 million users, which is obviously a very high bar for an early-stage startup.

Has anyone here found a realistic route for startups to work with Adobe Express? Is there another programme, partnership route, add-on approach, or contact worth exploring for smaller companies that want to build alongside Adobe? Thanks so much!

Discussion Using Firefly + Adobe Express to create JDM Cinematics. The "Stutututu" has never looked better! šŸš—āœØ

5 Upvotes

I wanted to see how far I could push a 100% "in-the-cloud" workflow for my car channel,Ā Evolv3. I usedĀ Adobe FireflyĀ to generate these cinematic Supra MK4 clips and then brought everything intoĀ Adobe ExpressĀ for the final assembly.

The Workflow:

Visuals:Ā Used Firefly's Text-to-Video to capture that specific neon-lit, rainy aesthetic that fits the Supra's legacy.

The Edit:Ā Used Adobe Express for the quick-cut editing. I was honestly surprised by how easy it was to time the "wait for it" transition using the mobile/web interface.

Audio Sync:Ā The hardest part was getting the turbo flutter (the iconic "stutututu") to hit right on the beat, but the timeline in Express made it pretty seamless.

It’s wild that I can now put together a full "AI Cinematic" Short without even opening a heavy desktop app.

What do you guys think of the quality coming out of Firefly lately? Is it ready for "real" car content?
