PE2018 Camera Raw will only allow edited files to be saved as .DNG

[Dynamic_magnificence157F]

In the new 2018 release using Photo Editor in Expert mode, any file Raw or Jpg file opened into Camera Raw for adjustment, will only allow Save Image as a .dng copy.

Any fix???

[Jeff Arola]

Open the file in to the pse 2018 Editor and use File>Save As for jpegs, tif, psd, etc.

Jeff,

Not an answer I understand, Re, saving from Camera Raw vs saving from the Editor.

I am used to CS CR being able to save quick-edited Jpgs to a new copy name, or processed Raws to whatever.  Here, the only option for saving either is a .dng file.  What am I missing in PSE?

[Jeff Arola]

Your not missing anything.

Since photoshop elements is geared more toward non professional users, it doesn't have all the settings and options that photoshop does, including only being able to save to dng from inside acr.

If you have multiple files in camera raw and then you select all of them, open them in the pse editor, you can use File>Process Multiple Files to save, rename, etc.

Jeff,

Thanks again.  A good shakedown is coming.
