Thanks Dan.
Unfortunately the PS price you mentioned is not available for me. I have to get it for 1,069.81 Euro (that is around 1,300 $). Much more than the mentioned 800 $.
The Adobe page re-directs me instantly to local re-sellers as you can see here:

As an example I need a plug-in for creating normal maps from height maps. GIMP and PS supports such a tool. PD or Painter probably not. But I am not 100 percent sure about that.
I thank you very much for the explanations and the hint towards Artrage. I will check this software thoroughly.
