With Adobe Premiere Pro CS5, you can:
Improve your editing workflow. Edit HD as fluidly as SD, thanks to the revolutionary Mercury 
Playback Engine, which delivers native 64-bit operating system support, GPU acceleration, and 
other performance and stability enhancements. Capture and log footage from virtually any camera 
and save time with the industry’s best native tapeless workflows, which eliminate transcoding and 
rewrapping, preserving the pristine quality of your footage. Boost productivity with timesaving 
features suggested by users. With intuitive editing tools and innovative new metadata features such 
as automatic face detection, you can edit even more efficiently.
Collaborate more effectively. Bring the creative benefits of Adobe tools to you project and work in 
an open, extensible post-production environment, thanks to easy project and content exchange 
with other Adobe software, Apple Final Cut Pro, or Avid editing software. Develop scripts 
collaboratively with Adobe Story, a new CS Live online service*. Manage your shoot and streamline 
logging by importing scripts from Adobe Story to capture metadata in Adobe OnLocation. Adobe 
Premiere Pro integrates with another CS Live online service, CS Review, which makes it easy for 
clients and teammates to review and comment on works in progress. You can upload your project 
from Adobe Premiere Pro, and then see your client’s comments as markers right in your sequence. 
With another CS Live online service, Acrobat.com, you can share project data.
Deliver more engaging experiences practically anywhere. Create with confidence as you produce 
video optimized for distribution to practically any medium. Save time by using Adobe Media 
Encoder to deliver your video project in all of the major video formats in a single batch encoding 
operation. With Adobe Encore CS5, create a more engaging experience with web DVDs that 
automatically include a search interface. The same metadata that speeds editing helps audiences 
discover your content online.
Who uses Adobe Premiere Pro?
Video and film editors and other post-production professionals use Adobe Premiere Pro to assemble 
compelling stories and other types of video content from live-action video footage, still and animated 
images, sound, and music. The types of projects they create range from short-form commercials and 
videos to long-form broadcast programming, sporting and event coverage, and corporate and feature 
films. Adobe Premiere Pro offers a comprehensive production toolset and an innovative script-to-
screen workflow that speeds every stage of production. Timesaving integration with other essential 
Adobe software, including Production Premium components, as well as with other NLEs (Final Cut Pro 
and Avid editing software), brings the creative benefits of Adobe tools to every project.
Motion graphics designers and visual effects artists turn to Adobe Premiere Pro for video ingest and 
editing. These creative professionals will especially appreciate being able to work in real time on 
footage at HD and film resolutions, thanks to the Mercury Playback Engine and broad format support 
including high-quality 10-bit, 4:2:2 mastering and archiving codecs. Plus, tight integration between 
After Effects and Adobe Premiere Pro saves time: when used together as part of Production Premium, 
the now faster Dynamic Link makes it easy to send compositions to Adobe Premiere Pro sequences, 
where changes made in After Effects show up immediately in the Adobe Premiere Pro timeline.
