FME Application Extensions
From Fmepedia
Q) What are FME Application Extensions?
A) FME Application Extensions (or Extenders) are products that use or embed FME functionality in other applications. The exact functionality varies from product to product, but can include the ability to read datasets not native to that application, to export to non-native datasets or to convert between two non-native formats.
Some extensions are packaged as part of FME, some are sold as add-ons and some packaged as part of the other GIS application.
For the most part, unless packaged as part of FME, support for Application Extensions is provided by the application vendor.
