No, each plug-in listing tells you who developed the plug-in. Adobe is specifying that they didn't develop them.

Sandman
But you just said that only Adobe can make Photoshop plug-ins, and that page lists Photoshop plug-ins. Tricky situation you've gotten yourself into!

Tony Cooper
Right. Only Adobe can call plug-in an "Adobe Plugin", but they can approve vendors as suppliers of plugins for Photoshop. The plugins on that page are evidently plugins that Adobe has approved for use with Photoshop. Strange that some of the most-used plugins are not listed.

Wow, you just dug yourself even deeper. Now you're saying "Adobe Plugin", but this is what you said before:

"A "Photoshop plug-in" would be a plug-in authored by, and offered by, Adobe."

Do you see the difference, and the hole you dug yourself into yet?

Contrast it with:

"Lightroom accepts PS plug-ins."

In fact, the first time the word "Adobe Plugin" has ever been used in this thread - or in this group even - is just now by you. No one has talked about, or mentioned "Adobe plugin".

Sandman
That said, and you know how I really like to shove your ignorance down your throat, here's a link for you:

http://www.ononesoftware.com/products/suite8/

"Perfect Photo Suite works as a plug-in and is a perfect companion to Adobe Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, Lightroom, and Apple Aperture."

So not even that was something you could get right.

Tony Cooper
What was wrong about my statement?

Sandman
"These companies don't claim to be "PS plug-ins" or "LR plug-ins"."

In fact, they do.

Tony Cooper
Where?

Sandman
In the quote above, illiterate boy.

Tony Cooper
Amazing that you can see words there that are not visible to the human eye. OnOne is clearly avoiding trademark infringement by using "companion" and stating that what they offer are plugins that work with the Adobe products.

Trademark infringement? What are you on about? Infirngement on *what* exactly? They're clearly stating on their web page that they provide a Photoshop plugin, as do most or all plugin developers because - that's what they do!

Are you under the impression that "Photoshop Plug-in" is a trademark and that plug-in developers refrain from using it?

"Adobe Photoshop Plug-in Module"

Must be authored by Adobe. Or in the process of being sued by them, right?
