In a standard converter that is part of Photoshop, Adobe Camera Raw, It is possible to create custom presets with different processing settings. These presets are called presets, as well as in Lightroom.

In essence, the preserved preset is text file in format Xmp With the values \u200b\u200bof the converter parameters marked in it Camera Raw.. If desired, the file opens with a conventional notepad or free program NotePad ++.

When clicking on the appropriate saved preset, the converter reads the parameter values \u200b\u200band applies them to the RAW file.

What are presets for? First of all, for batch processing large number images when you need to make a series in a single tonal and color solution. Also in presets retain the most successful treatments to then apply them if desired to other photos.

There are presets in the tab PRESETS (PRESETS). You can switch to it with a mouse or press the key combination Ctrl + Alt + 9.

By default, there are no presets there, that is, the tab will be empty. What you see in the figure above are previously created presets.

In order to create presets, you need to click on the sheet icon with a curved corner at the bottom of the tab, or click the key combination SHIFT + CTRL + P.

The New Preset dialog box opens.

By default, it includes record all image processing settings. If you wish, you can turn off or include certain settings sets, choosing them from the subset drop-down list. It is also desirable to ask a meaningful name for presets so that in the future you could easily remember what it does. Record only the settings that are necessary. For example, write white balance settings undesirable, since the white balance from the series to the series is always different.

In order to remove an unnecessary preset, click on the basket icon at the bottom of the tab Sets.

Stored presets in the system folder C: \\ Users \\ Username \\ APPDATA \\ Roaming \\ Adobe \\ Cameraraw \\ Settings For Windows I. Users \\ UserName \\ Libraries \\ Application Support \\ Adobe \\ Cameraraw \\ Settings For Mac. When placed there presets, they appear in Camera Raw when restarted. Also, if you need to remove many presets, it is better to do it in the folder itself.

If you do not have this folder, it means that you need to enable the visibility of hidden and system folders in the operating system settings.

Presets can be used packet through Adobe Bridge.. To do this, select the images to which the settings need to be applied. Selection is done standard, as in any program, using the SHIFT key and click the mouse, if you want to select the images in a row, and with the ctrl pinch key, if the selection needs to be produced in any order.

Then, through the right mouse button on the selected images, call the context menu and select it in it. Settings Module Develop. Then in the drop-down list click on the required preset. It applies to all selected images.

instead of Kenji, put your username, and instead of Adobe Photoshop CC 2015 are looking for old version Photoshop (CS6, CC, CC 2014 ...)

Copy it in the folder on the same path, but in the folder from the new photoshop. Restart photoshop and voila - you see your favorite workspace in the Workspaces list.

Editing JPEG and TIFF images in Camera Raw

A few words about editing JPEG and TIFF in Camera Raw. When you make changes to JPEG or TIFF and click on the button below "Open Image" (Open Image), this action opens an image in Photoshop.

However, if you want to save the changes made in Camera Raw, without opening a photo in Photoshop, then instead, click the "Done" button, and your changes will be saved. But there is a great difference between editing JPEG or TIFF images and editing images of Raw. When you click on the "Finish" button, you physically change the real pixels of the original JPEG or TIFF, whereas in the case with the RAW image it does not occur (this is the second major advantage of working with RAW). If you click on the "Open Image" button and open jPEG file Or TIFF in Photoshop, then you also open and edit the real image. Remember this.

Two Camera Raw.

And one more thing: in fact, there are two Camera Raw - one in Photoshop and the other separately in Bridge. The advantage of two Camera RAW is manifested when you process and / or save many RAW pictures - they can be processed in Camera Raw, located in Bridge, while you are working on something else in Photoshop. If you are more often using the Camera RAW in Bridge, then the fast Ctrl + K key will be useful for you. It allows you to open the "Installation" window (Preferences) from Bridge, go to the "Main" tab (general) on the left above and then install the checkbox in the checkbox "Changing the Camera Raw settings in the BRIDGE Double-click" (Double-Click Edits Camera Raw Settings In Bridge)

learn how to open images, including RAW files, JPEG and TIFFS, directly in a surprisingly powerful editing plugin photoshop images, known as Camera Raw.

until now, in this series of obtaining our images in Photoshop, we learned how to install Photoshop as default image editor in both Windows and Mac. We learned to open images from the inside Photoshop. And we learned to open images in Photoshop Using Adobe Bridge.

despite the fact that Photoshop is still the most powerful and popular editor of images in the world, times have changed. Nowadays, especially if you are a photographer, you have less chances to open your images in the Photoshop itself (at least initially) and, most likely, open them in Photoshop image editing plugin, Camera Raw.

Camera RAW was originally designed to allow us to handle RAW files. That is, images that were captured using the format of the RAW file of your camera. But Camera Raw also includes support jpeg Images and TIFF.

Unlike Photoshop, which is used by people in almost every creative profession, Camera RAW was built with photographers in mind using a simple layout that matches the normal editing process from beginning to end. This makes editing images in Camera RAW more natural and intuitive. And, Camera Raw is completely non-destructive, it means that we do not do anything to the image constantly. We can make any changes that we like, at any time, and we can even restore the original, unnewned version at any time.

we are going to cover Camera RAW in detail in your own series of textbooks. Now let's find out how to open our images directly in Camera Raw. We will start with RAW files, as they are easiest to open. Then we learn how to open JPEG and TIFF.

the best way To open images in RAW you can use Adobe Bridge.So I will use here. If you are not yet familiar with Adobe Bridge, I told about the foundations, including how to install Bridge, in the previous one how to open images from Adobe Bridge tutorial. Be sure to check it before continuing.

be the first to know when new textbooks are added!

Adobe Bridge CC (free) includes support adobe plugin Camera Raw if Photoshop CC is also activated (trial version). BRIDGE + ARC combination satisfies my need for fast setting And viewing multimedia, but it will not work without the activated version of Photoshop.

I was interested, whether the next will work trick : If I buy Photoshop Elements 15 (which can sometimes be cheap) and install it next to Bridge CC; Will the Camera RAW plugin be re-enabled in Bridge CC or will it work only from PSE?

Of course, I read that Camera RAW for PSE disables things such as gradient filters, separate tinting and removal of stains, but I do not mind; If I need more accurate editing, I can always open untreated inside Affinity photo, which is more capable.

Anyone who thinks / knows what it will work?

Answers

Shortly speaking

Can be used Adobe Camera Raw. (ACR) complete with Photoshop Elements. (PSE), as if it were almost natural for Bridge Creative Cloud. (CC) (see explanations below because there are some quirks and some things you can't do)

What works and what not

• Adobe Camera Raw included in PSE It seems a separate instance from CC. (possibly located in another folder)
• IN editor PSE. opening file Raw. opens the dialog box Acr (Simplified for PSE , without extended tools supplied with the full version CC. - full list )
• Pressing " Open in Camera Raw "in Bridge CC. You will see a message that Camera Raw Editing Is Not Enabled. However,
• from the inside Bridge If you click on " Open with help »-\u003e Adobe Photoshop Elements 15 Editor , he actually launches Acr (version PSE; after Initialization PSE), then
  • you have the opportunity to work on Raw, as before, and either
  • click Finish (or Cancel) and return to Bridge , or
  • press OPEN image and open the image in PSE .

What works

• Bridge can easily send multiple files in ACR PSE (which helps a little when packet editing)
• It seems that Bridge reads new / updated XMP files as well as if they were "their"
  • preview accurate
  • there is also an icon indicating that adjustments are applied to this particular unprocessed file.
  • edited miniatures inside Bridge Instantly updated as if they were created using your own version Acr (i.e. full CC Acr).
• inside Acr
  • You can re-edit the settings that were previously created by the full version. CC Acr And it is quite interesting
  • adjustments that are not supported here (for example, removal of stains, correction of perspective, etc.), remain, although not subject to further configuration. However
  • if you click " reset the default camera settings » These settings will also be canceled.

What does not work

main cautions

• you can no longer use the parameters " Development » -> « Parameters in default for Camera Raw " / « Previous conversion " / « Clear settings » of Bridge so you need to do it from ACR, Which means that for batch editing you need to perform several additional steps.
• you lose access to good tools, such as tool for removing stains , toning , prospects Correction, Correction lens , remove blur and of course, masks (full list )

minor reservations

• ultimately you can keep a copy PSE always open as it must be started before launch Acr (Unlike version CC, which can be placed directly in Bridge)
  • Another consequence of this is that if inside Acr You click Ready or Cancel , window Acr Close, but not window pSE editor.
• Context menu " Open in Camera Raw ... " (as well as the above development parameters) in Bridge no longer does anything useful - instead you must click " To open with" -> « Adobe Photoshop Elements 15 Editor, What is a bit more cumbersome thanks to one additional click and need to scan it in the large list (if you have multiple photo editing applications).
• Be an independent version Acr Also means that you probably do not have the right to constant updates, unlike the version CC, which is updated forever. This is just an assumption, but the compatibility list indicates that the PSE version (PSE 13) never did it to ACR 9.0 or higher)
• after editing in Camera Raw if, instead of closing the window, you decide to click the "Open" button to edit the image inside PSE , PSE, visible, imposes additional restrictions compared to editing the same files inside PS. . Among other things, you are limited to 8 bits on the canal.

Output

In general, it is quite applicable, although not supported directly.

Background (how I checked it)

in my system there is a trial bRIDGE CC 2017 version and Photoshop CC 2017. But trial version Photoshop. already expired. Since then, whenever I choose from Bridge parameter " Open in Camera Raw ... " I receive an error message (Camera Raw Editing Is Not Enabled. Camera Raw Editing Required That A Qualifying Product Has Been Launched At Least OnCe To Enable This Feature.).

1. After downloading, installing and running Acr From the trial version PSE 15. I tested again Bridge But not lucky. Prone pSE version, I downloaded, had ACR 9,7 (or 9.6?).
2. From the program I was given the opportunity to download more new version PSE and newer version Acr (9.8), which coincides with the version that my Bridge CC 2017. ; So I thought I could try too. It hinted on the fact that CC. and PSE have their own separate copy ACR, which requires a separate update.
3. I installed the update, but failed to configure Bridge For proper integration with this version.

becomed

I have not tried full version Photoshop Elements. , only a trial version, and I did not delete the trial version Photoshop CC 2017. With an expired period, but I do not understand why this could lead to any other result.

copied and edited from my answer found on the forum adobe Support

Gerlos.

Thanks for the excellent explanation! There is another moment, which may be worth adding: When you develop a photo in ACR, everything happens in 16 bits, but when you click "Open" for making additional changes In PSE, you can be prompted to convert an image of 8 bits, as PSE does not fully support editing 16 bits. For example, you can trim, adjust the levels and curves by saving a photo in 16 bits, but you cannot use layers or use the cloning tool without converting it to 8 bits.

Fotisk.

Thanks @gerlos - a good moment! I added this - although I avoided the topic of opening a file inside PSE (or even PS) for obvious reasons, at some point you need to at least export your images and you have to use PS, PSE or third-party image editing software.
