I am using CS6 and have a request from the special effects person for my project asking for the proejct to be rendered to Apple ProRes 422 (HQ) which seems to be an editing format. I have offered an .xml as an option and he only wants the Apple Pro Res 422 (HQ). Can anyone offer any info as to whether I can render my project to Apple ProRes 422 (HQ) using Premiere CS6

    If you're on PC then pretty much no. Unless you use this hack that I have seen talked about and I haven't ever attempted to see if it works or not.

    ProRes is a format for the exported video you create when rendering a sequence, not the project file. It's also specific to the OS X version of Premiere Pro.

    I understand this is a format for export however most of the formats are for "delivery"  not "editing". It is my understanding this Apple ProRes is for high quality editing

    There are MANY other options besides ProRes when it comes to high quality editing. You could use Lagarith, Cineform, UT or DNxHD.

    To address your other question no on a PC you cannot create to  the ProRes format you can only edit ProRes files on a pc. Unless you use this Hack which I haven't personally tested myself. Here is a link to how to do it, I have been told this hack works for Premiere to although I haven't tried it myself as I have already mentioned.

    Honestly though I'd just use another format...
