Has Adobe changed or clarified the Illustrator FAQ sentence about not adding Content Credentials, and do Illustrator release notes explain the 29.4 behaviour?

The sentence is byte-for-byte the same in three captures: a Wayback capture dated 2025-10-06 (page date line 'Sep 11, 2025'), the cycle-2 fetch of 2026-10-21 and the live page of 2026-10-22 (date line 'Jun 1, 2026'). Between the 2025 and 2026 captures only the surrounding labels and small phrasing changed ('With version 29.4:' became 'With Illustrator versions 29.4 and later:'). The Illustrator desktop release-notes page, covering 29.8 (Aug 2025) through 30.8 (Aug 2026), contains no Content Credentials wording; 29.4 is outside its range. Two captures of that sentence do not show what happened between them or before September 2025.

Two captures of that sentence do not show what happened between them or before September 2025. Curator qualifications: Sentence unchanged between captures; release notes 29.8-30.8 (Aug 31, 2026) have no Content Credentials wording and do not reach 29.4. Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
