Welcome to the Adobe Premiere 4.2 Software Development Kit Release 2 for Windows 95 and Windows/NT 13 November 1996 This is the 2nd release of the Adobe Premiere 4.2 Software Development Kit. This SDK provides the information you need to develop plug-ins for Adobe Premiere for 32-bit Windows. It provides a description of the programming API and sample source code and project files demonstrating the various plug-in types. To install the SDK, launch the self-expanding archive and follow the on-screen prompts. The installer will create a "Premiere 4.2 SDK" folder on your hard disk. Within this folder you will find sub-folders containing the SDK documentation and example plug-in source code. Several of these contain another "Read Me" file describing their contents. The Premiere SDK documentation is in pdf format which is readable using the Adobe Acrobat Reader. If you don't already have the Acrobat Reader, it can be downloaded free of change from the Adobe Web site (www.adobe.com). The Premiere code samples include make files for building using Visual C++ 2.2 and 4.2. For the latest information on joining the Adobe Developers Association, and hence obtaining technical support for this SDK, obtaining newer copies of this SDK, and obtaining SDKs for other Adobe products, please look at the Developer Relations area on the Adobe Web site (www.adobe.com).
