how do you open a photo in Camera Raw without bridge [2010]

Hello,

I don't use Bridge, I use Aperture 3 to organize my photos. I use the "edit with photoshop" function to send the photos to photoshop. When I do this though, my raw files do not automatically open with camera raw, as they would if I just opened them through photoshop itself.

How can I open the camera raw plugin from within photoshop? or How can I tell aperture to open the files with camera raw before opening photoshop?

Thanks,
Kevin Mastman

I've worked with exactly one client who uses Aperture as a front-end in place of Bridge; I believe with this workflow Aperture is the raw converter, and the images sent to Photoshop are essentially tifs. I.E., Aperture replaces both Bridge and ACR, and its only output for "edit with Photoshop" are rendered non-raw images. As I remember, the only colorspace available was Adobe1998 for the tifs pushed to Photoshop.

Use File > Open As... in Photoshop and pick Camera Raw from the drop-down choices.

Macs don't do "open as" - only Windoze machines

Hey sippog, instead of throwing out a childish term designed to irritate half the users of Photoshop, why not actually describe how it does work for a Mac? Perhaps something along the lines of:

On OSX, one would do it this way:

Choose FIle - Open, then in the Format field choose Camera Raw, as shown here:
