Create a device set
Adobe Device Central lets you group devices into custom folders. For example, you might create a device set that
contains the devices you use for a particular project or you might create a device set containing all devices that
support a particular content type. Device sets appear in the Device Sets panel.
The content type selected for emulation or document creation filters the devices in the Device Sets and Available
Devices panels. Devices that do not support the selected content type are dimmed. (When the Device Profiles tab is
shown, all devices in the Device Sets and Available Devices panels are enabled so you can view profile information.)
To create a device set, do one of the following:
Right-click the My Favorites folder in the Device Sets panel and select New Device Set.
Click the New Device Set button
in the upper-right corner of the Device Sets panel.
Select Devices > New Device Set.
An Untitled Set appears. Enter a name for the new device set. If an “Untitled Set” already exists, Adobe Device
Central adds a number to the name (Untitled Set (1), Untitled Set (2), and so on).
Note:
After creating a new Device Set folder, you can drag the folder up and down to a new location under the My
Favorites folder.
Create a device subset
1
Select the device set to be the subset.

Drag the device (or a group of devices) from the Available Devices panel or the Profile Info tab to the Device Sets
panel.
Right-click a device and choose Copy. Right-click a device set and choose Paste.

To copy devices between sets, press Ctrl (Windows) or Option (Macintosh) while dragging. A plus sign (+) next to
the pointer indicates copying.
