Yes, it's a typing error on my part. The mind said "Photoshop Plug-in" and the fingers said "Adobe Plug-in".

Sandman
So you're still on record with the hilarious comment that only Adobe can call a plug-in a "Photoshop plug-in"?

Tony Cooper
Yup. Only Adobe can call a plug-in a "Photoshop Plug-in". The rest should call theirs "Plug-in for Photoshop".

Sandman
That's hilarious!

So, are thesde your statements, then:

1. Only Adobe can make Photoshop plug-ins

Tony Cooper
Never said that.

Sandman
So, anyone can make photoshp plug-ins but only Adobe can *call* them Photoshop plug-ins? Haha!

Yep. You've almost got it. If it's not a plug-in created by Adobe, it should be called a "Plug-in for Photoshop".

Otherwise, it's misleading. Using "Photoshop Plug-in", there is an implication that the plug-in is either created by Adobe or approved by Adobe.

And why you totally ignored the earlier post, where someone else than Adobe calls their plug-in a "Photoshop plug-in":

<http://tinyurl.com/ngbuqzw>

"Adobe Photoshop Plug-in Module"

The fact that there are examples of misuse does not make it any less of a misuse.

Interesting, though, that you provide a 2006 document that refers to a product that works on Windows 2000 or Windows XP, and Photoshop CS or CS2 or Elements Version 1.0 or 2.0.

The current webpage has statements like "Is the UP-CR10L Plug-In Module compatible with Photoshop CS4?"

It's also interesting that what you've provided is a reference to a plug-in that allows a digital photo printer to use a template that puts a border around an image that is to be printed. You really are into some high-tech stuff, aren't you?
