Adobe

Adobe Systems is a US software company. It was founded in 1982 by John Warnock and Charles Geschke, the inventors of the page description language PostScript. The name Adobe (span. and narrow. "clay brick") derives from a river called Adobe Creek, which ran behind Warnock's house in Los Altos, California.
The company specializes primarily in programs for the creation and processing of printed matter and image material. Software such as Indesign, Premiere or Photoshop have become an integral part of the professional handling of these media.
