어도비의 공동 창업자인 Charles 'Chuck' Geschke가 81세의 나이로 사망했다는 소식을 전합니다. 이 회사는 1982년 공동 창업자인 존 워녹의 차고에서 시작했으며, 워녹의 집 뒤에 있는 어도비 크릭의 이름을 따서 WYSIWYG 데스크톱 출판의 선구적인 기능을 제공하였습니다.

• "어도비의 공동 설립자로서 척과 존 워녹은 사람들이 창조하고 소통하는 방법을 혁신하는 획기적인 소프트웨어를 개발했습니다,"라고 Narayen은 말했습니다.

• 두 사람은 1982년 제록스를 떠나 어도비를 설립했습니다.

• 게슈케는 아내 낸시와 56년간 결혼해 3명의 자녀와 7명의 손자를 두고 있습니다.

• PDF 개발을 도왔던 어도비 공동 창업자인 Charles "Chuck" Geschke가 81세의 나이로 사망했다고 회사측은 성명을 통해 밝혔습니다.

• "Chuck은 회사에 혁신을 위한 끊임없는 드라이브를 심어주었고, 그 결과 어디서나 볼 수 있는 PDF, Acrobat, Illustrator, Premier Pro 및 Photoshop을 비롯한 가장 혁신적인 소프트웨어 발명품이 탄생했습니다.

• Geschke는 피츠버그의 Carnegie Mellon 대학에서 박사학위를 받은 후, 제록스 팔로 알토 연구 센터에서 Warnock을 만났습니다.

• "그 회사의 첫 번째 제품은 Adobe PostScript였습니다. 이 기술은 종이 위에 텍스트와 이미지를 인쇄하는 혁신적인 방법을 제공하고 데스크톱 출판 혁명을 촉발시켰습니다.

• 1992년 AP에 의해 보도된 바와 같이, 게슈케는 직장에 도착하여 총을 겨누고 있는 두 명의 남자에 의해 붙잡혀 캘리포니아의 홀리스터로 가서 그를 4일 동안 억류했습니다.

• 몸값은 지불되었지만, 용의자는 후에 65만 달러의 현금 몸값으로 붙잡혔고, 그는 경찰을 게슈케가 잡혀 있는 은신처로 안내했습니다.

• 2009년, 오바마 대통령은 두 공동 설립자에게 국가 기술 훈장을 수여했습니다.

Regardless of what you think of Adobe's practices now, Chuck co-founded one of the most influential software firms in history.

He was smart, witty, generous and had an amazing history.

I think Charles Geschke was the first design legend I ever met. Don't know where I'd be if Adobe never existed. To start a company that creates an entire industry is ?. Respect. https://t.co/wAPnoW04Mn
