Adobe is a software company that provides a range of creative and marketing tools for individuals and businesses. The company was founded in 1982 by John Warnock and Charles Geschke, who left Xerox’s Palo Alto Research Center to start their own company.
Initially, Adobe focused on developing printing software, including the PostScript page description language, which became a standard for high-quality printing in the publishing industry. In 1985, Adobe released its first commercial software product, Adobe Illustrator, which became a popular tool for creating vector graphics.
Over the years, Adobe has expanded its product offerings to include a wide range of creative and marketing software, including Photoshop, Acrobat, InDesign, Premiere Pro, and Creative Cloud. The company has also acquired several other software companies, including Macromedia, which brought popular products such as Flash and Dreamweaver into Adobe’s portfolio.
Today, Adobe’s products are used by millions of creative professionals, marketers, and businesses around the world. The company is headquartered in San Jose, California, USA, and has offices in many countries around the world.

Please note that some of these numbers are easier to find than others. A few of these Adobe statistics come from their own reports, but some are based on news reports and not official company tallies. No information contained on DMR should be relied upon to make investment decisions. Basically, this is the best I can find and I don’t guarantee anything to be 100%.
