Their creator, Mr. Spencer, writes:

For me it’s essential that I get stuff done as quickly as possible, as my time is precious to me. As I use these tools so often, I have found learning the various different keyboard shortcuts as an invaluable method for speeding up my work and processes. To help you learn all these different keyboard shortcuts (some of which aren’t published in the software) I have created one mega cheatsheet which you can save for your future use.
For example, one of Adobe Photoshop’s strengths is that it makes extensive use of keyboard shortcuts; but, there are so many that it’s difficult to remember them all. So now this will make it really easy for you to remember them the next time you are using the software! I’ve discovered that by making a list of the most-commonly-used tasks I do using CC and then discovering how to do them faster through shortcuts, I’ve taken off 30 minutes from my working day.

We hope you enjoy these quick-and-easy references to the most important keyboard shortcuts and quick keys for 14 of the most popular tools in the Creative Cloud. They are available as JPG images as well as downloadable as hi-res PDF files:

And we’re also big fans of the additional Lightroom Queen keyboard shortcut lists (also free) for both Lightroom Classic (versions 1-11) and Lightroom CC.
