Adobe Lightroom SDK

Adobe Lightroom SDK is a handy toolset designed to help you create Lightroom plugins to extend the functionality of the program. In the current release these features are extensible:

Export functionality: You can create an export plug-in, which customizes the behavior of Lightroom's Export dialog and export processing. You can add or remove items from the Export dialog, alter or augment the rendering process, and send images to locations other than files on the local computer.

Metadata: You can define customized public or private metadata fields for Lightroom. Public or private metadata can be associated with individual photos.

Web engine functionality: You can create an HTML web-engine plug-in, which defines a new type of HTML photo gallery. The engines you define appear in the Gallery panel at the upper right of the Web module.
