Adobe plans to integrate Pixmantec raw processing technologies into its new digital photography workflow product Lightroom.

"By combining Pixmantec's raw processing technology and expertise with our own, we're continuing to deliver on the promise that even your existing raw files can be processed with increasing quality as our software technology evolves."
