Using Adobe Device Central with Dreamweaver
Device Central enables Dreamweaver web designers and developers to preview how Dreamweaver files will look on a
wide variety of mobile devices. Device Central uses Opera’s Small-Screen Rendering™ to give designers and developers
an impression of how their web page looks on a small screen. It also enables designers and developers to test if their
CSS behaves correctly.
For example, a web developer may have a customer who wants to make a website available on mobile phones. The web
developer can use Dreamweaver to create preliminary pages and use Device Central to test how those pages look on
different devices.

Tips for creating Dreamweaver web content for mobile devices
Device Central previews web pages created in Dreamweaver using Opera’s Small-Screen Rendering. This preview can
give you a good idea of what a web page looks like on a mobile device.
note: Opera’s Small-Screen Rendering may or may
not be pre-installed on any individual emulated device. Device Central simply gives a preview of how the content would
look if Opera’s Small-Screen Rendering was installed.
