Can you issue a command-line command to Photoshop to tell it to load a RAW file, apply ACR edits (stored in the associated XMP file) and then export to JPEG file without having to manually do this by hand or luanch the PS interface?

@sirhawkeye why don't you create your own Keyboard shortcut or action?

While this works, what I meant is the ability to call PS from another progarm (a custom program), apply the edits, and then export a JPEG.  I think this method requires me to initiate the process which is not what I want, but maybe I need to ask this in an Adobe API/SDK forum as I'm trying to integrate this function for a custom program I'm writing where I want basically an exported JPEG to be used as a preview for my program.
