'Only Adobe can call a plug-in a "Photoshop Plug-in"'

Eric Stevens
And quite right too. Once Adobe has called it that, so too can other people. If you haven't got Adobe's approval, the proper way to describe it is as a 'plug-in for Photoshop'.

nospam
once again, there is no approval necessary to write and sell a photoshop plug-in and call it that, which is what a lot of companies do.

Eric Stevens
Ever heard of protecting a trademark?

calling something a photoshop plug-in is not infringing. it is, after all, a photoshop plug-in. it does not in any way mean it was authored by adobe.

Unless, of course, we ask Tony:

"Only Adobe can call a plug-in a 'Photoshop Plug-in'"

Surely that claim is based on well-grounded research on the matter. Of course, he hasn't shared that research with us... yet.
