Adobe has updated a number of its Creative Cloud apps, including Photoshop, Illustrator, and the XD Preview. The updates range from powerful new tools to smaller changes that nonetheless improve the user experience with a given app.

Photoshop has received a number of enhancements with this update, starting with content-aware Crop, which eliminates image gaps created when using the Crop tool. Face-aware Liquify automatically detects faces, making it easier to adjust facial features. Finally Match Font can scan images, recognize text, and identifies matching or similar fonts.

Premiere Pro and After Effects have each seen some changes as well. Premiere Pro has added some new virtual reality features, while After Effects has added the Character Animator, which matches an actor's voice work with a character's speech and movements.

Updates have also been made to the Adobe Stock images app. Stock has added a new premium image collection and a "one-click" workflow.

You can downloaded these updates through Adobe's Creative Cloud app right now.
