Camera RAW 11.2 does not offer full range of working spaces. Only sRGB, Adobe RGB, ProPhoto. Easier versions offer access to other working spaces profiles present on the workstation. ECIv2, DCI, etc.

    Howdy David,

    I spoke with the Camera Raw crew.  You are correct -- they removed this behavior during a recent attempt to clean-up the app.  It appears that someone was a little overzealous.  We've logged a bug and it should be addressed soon.  Sorry for the hassle.

    Thanks,

    David

    We're on macOS Sierra 10.12.6 here at my company. There's no update available in the Creative Cloud App yet. Any guesses as to why? Thanks so much!

    Newest Camera RAW update now resolves this. Version 11.2.1.159

    Thanks for letting us know. I have the same issue, as described in this thread:

    Arbitrary ICC-based color spaces disappeared from Workflow Options>Color Space>Space of ACR

    Can confirm this is happening to me as well. macOS Mojave (10.14.3), Camera Raw (11.2.0.135)

    I checked this on a third Apple computer today. OS X High Sierra, CC2018, CR 11.2. Only the short list of profiles. I have more Macs and a few Windows 10 PCs I can test but the network bug is a problem that is holding me back. At least they are working on that one.

    I have a full list in ACR 11.2, no restrictions. Monitor profiles, CMYK profiles, everything.

    So this is something specific to your system.

    That said, those three are basically what you need in terms of RGB profiles. A file should always be in a standard color space, and DCI P3 is not a document profile. It's a display condition and the profile should only be used as a generic display profile.

    A better case might be made for ECI RGB, but it's still not in widespread use. It's a pretty risky choice.

    Raws don't have their own color profile.

    The topic is about opening that RAW in Photoshop (with a specific profile)

    ECI is a common one, but not even an option now...

    This problem began after the ARC update which I did yesterday.

    Yes, of course I know that. This isn't about that, it's about the options you get for opening a rendered RGB file in Photoshop.

    I can confirm that. Especially the RAW 11.2.0.135 matter.

    Dear Adobe, it is quite urgent because you are unable to downgrade to a lower ARC-version AND I don't want to fck up my color management workflow.
