Adobe licenses Opera

Adobe has licensed Opera's HTML rendering engine for use within Adobe applications. A spokeswoman for Opera focused on Adobe's interest in Opera's small-screen rendering technology, which reformats HTML to fit on multiple devices etc. The most immediately obvious application would be for rendering HTML within web applications such as GoLive, however, the ability to properly render stylesheeted HTML within a creative application suggests all sorts of other possibilities. For example, instead of "Galley View" and "Layout View" in a text editor, how about "Galley View", "Print Layout View", "Webpage Layout View", "Tablet View", etc? Opera's press release is here.
