dmstraker Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 There's a report in the San Jose Mercury that Serif (ie. Affinity) is being bought by Adobe. This is awful. They'll almost certainly change payment into a subscription model.

But strangely, these days his work is usually only mentioned around this time, once a year. I wonder why that is?

R C-R Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 The report is incorrect. Serif will not be bought by Adobe. Thus, Adobe will remain a sans Serif corporation.
