When I selected "Save Image" there is an option to select the size of the JPEG preview. Is there anyway to extract the JPEG and does the JPEG contain the adjustments that were made to the Raw image?
The "Save image" command just saves (really converts) the original raw into another raw format : the DNG format created by Adobe to get a universal raw format instead of a specific raw format for each camera in the range of each camera manufacters... Using that feature is your choice.
And what you see in the bottom line : 8 bits or 16 bits has nothing to do with a preview, it is the choice of 'color depth' for the image the converters sends to the editor.
So, your choice is either :
- to click 'Done' which saves the settings of your conversion (white balance, exposure, clarity...) to a very small 'sidecar' file of the xmp type
- to 'Open' in the editor where you can work with all features of the editor (which include saving the output file in any format - jpeg - psd - tiff - png...

You can't because the file is rendered with the camera raw settings for re-saving e.g as tiff or jpeg.
You can re-open the raw file at any time exactly where you left off before any further pixel editing in Full edit.

Photoshop Elements 10 EditorへCamera Raw 6.6のインストール

Mac App Storeで購入したAdobe Photoshop Elements 10 Editorに、プラグインのCamera Raw 6.6をAdobeのサイトからダウンロードしてインストールしようとしましたが、できません。現在は、Camera Raw 6.5がインストールされています。Adobe Application Managerが立ち上がり、「該当するアプリケーションはありません」と表示されます。
どなたかうまくアップデートされた方はおられますか？
それともMac App Storeからアップデーターが出るのでしょうか？

Thanks for the reply: I'm aware I can set the colour space in the editor but my concern is that if it's exported from Camera Raw as sRGB then converted to AdobeRGB that there may be some information loss, my thinking being that getting it right early is better than later. Am I right in thinking that converting from sRGB to ARGB will lose information, or more likely won't have the full information set in the first place because the initial export from RAW is to sRGB?
I have to say I find the subject of colour management quite mystifying ... but I gather I'm not alone in that.
Thanks again.
Keeping in mind that a raw file has no color profile (it's not even an 'image', it's a recording of light intensity for each of the photosites laid out in a 'Bayer pattern' with Red, Green and blue filters) and that your raw file information will never be altered by any converter, you can be sure that it is always possible to re-process the raw file to aRGB without any information loss.
You are perfectly right that the resulting image (psd, tiff, jpeg...) when you save from the editor will keep its color profile and that converting sRGB to aRGB won't add any useful information; that's what I said in the other post.
When I was experimenting on that matter with other users in another forum, I was able to select previously edited raw files containing subtle tones in green/cyan and re-process them in aRGB instead of sRGB and I got better results on my 6-inks home printer.
Don't believe all images will be better in aRGB, there are not necessarily 'out of gamut' colours in all of your pictures.

I just realized that I have missed to put the link to the other thread:

Metadata can be added in Properties panel. select a file and hit Alt+Enter. It will open up Properties panel. You may drag drop tags on the media and do File > Write tags info to files to write tags in file metadata.

Will photoshop elements 12 have camera raw 8.6 support?

will photoshop elements 12 have camera raw 8.6 support?

Just a note abour the 8.5 update:
This morning, opening my computer I got a warning message from 'Adobe application manager' informing me of the availability of that update. I agreed an the update started. It soon stopped with a dialog asking me to stop 'elementsautoanalyzer.exe'. I was sure it was not running in the background. After checking that, I simply clicked on the 'continue' button and the update ran normally. The new version is good in the editor and the organizer.
So, if you get that message, don't panic...

My Photoshop Elements 11 -Sony A6000 RAW picture files

My Photoshop Elements 11 does not open sony A6000 RAW picture files. Are there any updates? What am I doing wrong? Any suggestions?

Hi,
According to the following, the Sony Alpha A6000 requires camera raw 8.4 which is not compatible with Photoshop Elemenets 11.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Providing your system is not XP, Vista or Mac OS 10.6 or earlier, then you need to upgrade to Photoshop Elements 12 or 13 or use the DNG converter 8.4 or later.
DNG Converter 8.7

Photoshop Elements 8 and Camera Raw

I have Elements 8 installed on my Dell notebook (INSPIRON mini) I have installed the Camera Raw 5.5 plug-in and I am using a Nikon D90 camera.
The plug-in has been installed in "Program files/Adobe/Photoshop Elements 8/Plug-Ins/File Formats/ and the file name is Camera Raw.8BI
Every time I click on a NEF file to load into camera raw, a window appears in Elements saying reading camera raw format and a progress bar under it, when the file has been loaded it opens up in Elements and not in Camera raw. I am now at a lose as what else I can do to correct this problem.
Any ideas???

1) Location of Camera Raw Plugin
With PSE8, the file Camera Raw.8bi has been moved from
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 8.0\Plug-Ins\File Formats
to
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 8\File Formats
This is not documented in the ACR 5.5 Installation Guide yet, but PSE 8 comes with ACR 5.5 anyway.
2) ACR not loading, but PSE Editor
This sounds to me like the Screen Resolution Problem described here.

How do I get Photoshop elements 9 to open RAW images from my Canon g16?

How do I get elemente 9 to open RAW images from Canon G 16?

Hi,
You will need either use the Canon software to convert the CR2 files to TIF files or use the free Adobe DNG converter to convert the CR2 files to DNG files. Then import the TIF or DNG files into PSE 9.
You could update to PSE 12 to avoid the conversions.

Photoshop Elements 6.0 Camera Raw doesn't recognize my .RW2 files.

I downloaded the CameraRaw.8bi file, version 5.4.0.57 and copied it into: Program Files\Common Files\\Adobe\Plug-ins\CS2\File Formats after copying the old version to a safe place. I executed the CameraProfiles.exe program that was included in the ZIP file I downloaded. Elements 6 does not recognize my file format. I have a Panasonic LUMIX FZ28 that uses the .RW2 raw file format. The LUMIX FZ28 is included as a camera that this Raw Converter handles. The Read Me instructions for the install has the path as: Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-ins\CS3\File Formats, so I renamed my CS2 folder to CS3 and tried that, NO GO, still won't recognize the RW2 format, then I renamed the folder back to CS2. I don't know what else to do!! Can someone please help me? Thanks, Smokey Joe.

Camera RAW goes another place for Elements, not in the Photoshop Creative Suite subfolders. Scroll down further until you see a section specific to PSE 6 on Windows, or there are instructions on this page about 2/3 of the way down:

Photoshop Elements 7 and Panasonic Raw images

I recently bought a Panasonic Luminex partly in order to shoot RAW images. My research told me that Photoshop Elements 6 and above would accept it. My PE 7 is telling me, however, that it cannot open the image because it is the wrong kind of file. Any guidance?

What model of Panosonic Lumix is it?
Unless it's Lumix DMC-GH1, then in all likelihood, you'll need to use the 8.2 dng converter
to convert your lumix camera raw files to dng copies, which then pse 7 should open.

Photoshop Elements cannot open Camera RAW from Canon EOS 7D Mark ii

I just bought Canon EOS 7D mark ii camera. I have Photoshop Elements 12. The program is unable to open RAW images.The message is "the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by installed version of camera Raw".
I downloaded 8.7.1 plugin but that is also not able to open the image.

You need Adobe camera raw version 8.7 Unfortunately your software pre-dates the camera. ACR 8.7 is only compatible with PSE13. But it is possible to download and install the free DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the DNG files will open in PSE12 (keep your CR2's as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
Windows download (.exe file) click here DNG Converter 8.7.1
Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.7.1
You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

Photoshop Elements 10 and Camera Raw 8.7.1 Converter

Can the Camera Raw 8.7.1 Converter be used with Photoshop Elements 10?

I agree. But the problem here isn't with Adobe. If the camera manufacturers could agree on a common file format all of this compatibility mayhem could be eliminated. But they insist on maintaining their proprietary raw formats.
A common file format is not a panacea - somebody has to write the code to translate sensor data to RGB values etc.., and right now:
Nikon does that for Nikon,
Canon does that for Canon,
Adobe does that for Adobe.
Reverse engineering different raw file formats (to locate raw image and pertinent metadata) is comparatively trivial.
Yes, I realize that if Nikon and Canon did that for Adobe too (and packaged it in a DNG file for example, with camera profiles.., and did new lens profiles for them too..), then it would be better for Adobe software users, but there is just insufficient incentive for camera manufacturers to do that.
The bottom line - I agree that the problem here isn't with Adobe, but also: it's unfair to accuse camera manufacturers of being "stubborn or uncooperative..". It just doesn't make good business sense for them, or hasn't yet anyway.
Fingers crossed for the future and all, but I wouldn't hold breath..

Photoshop elements 12 and camera raw 8.5

Just so anyone that's interested knows, camera raw 8.5 is available for photoshop elements 12 by going to Help>Updates from within the pse 12 editor.
I believe the same limitations apply as camera raw 8.4, that being if you have windows xp, vista or mac os x 10.6.8 you
won't get the camera raw 8.5 update, because it doesn't work on those operating systems.
