<!-- END PAGE TITLE -->
                <div><div class="section"><p>Workflow options specify settings for all files
output from Camera Raw, including the color bit depth, color space,
and pixel dimensions. Workflow options determine how Photoshop opens
these files, but do not affect how After Effects imports a camera
raw file. Workflow settings do not affect the camera raw data itself. </p>
<p>You
can see and change these Workflow settings at the bottom of the
Camera Raw dialog box.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><dl><dt class="dlterm">Space</dt>
<dd>Specifies the target
color profile. Generally, set Space to the color profile you use
for your Photoshop RGB working space. The source profile for camera raw
image files is usually the camera-native color space. The profiles
listed in the Space menu are built in to Camera Raw. To use a color
space that’s not listed in the Space menu, choose ProPhoto RGB,
and then convert to the working space of your choice when the file
opens in Photoshop.</dd><p class="dlseparator"></p><dt class="dlterm">Depth</dt>
<dd>Specifies
whether the file opens as an 8‑bpc or 16‑bpc image in Photoshop. </dd><p class="dlseparator"></p><dt class="dlterm">Size</dt>
<dd>Specifies
the pixel dimensions of the image when imported into Photoshop.
The default pixel dimensions are those used to photograph the image.
To resample the image, use the Size menu.<p>For square-pixel
cameras, choosing a smaller-than-native size can speed processing
when you are planning a smaller final image. Picking a larger size
is like upsampling in Photoshop.</p>
<p>For non-square pixel cameras,
the native size is the size that most closely preserves the total
pixel count. Selecting a different size minimizes the resampling
that Camera Raw needs to perform, resulting in slightly higher image quality.
The best quality size is marked with an asterisk (*) in the Size
menu.</p>
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:  </span>You can always change the pixel size of the image
after it opens in Photoshop.</div>
</dd><p class="dlseparator"></p><dt class="dlterm">Resolution</dt>
<dd>Specifies
the resolution at which the image is printed. This setting does
not affect the pixel dimensions. For example, a 2048 x 1536 pixel
image, when printed at 72&#160;dpi, is approximately 28‑1/2
x 21‑1/4 inches. When printed at 300&#160;dpi, the same image
is approximately 6‑3/4 x 5‑1/8&#160;inches. You can also use the
Image Size command to adjust resolution in Photoshop.</dd><p class="dlseparator"></p><dt class="dlterm">Open In Photoshop As Smart Objects</dt>
<dd>Causes Camera Raw images to open in Photoshop as a Smart
Object layer instead of a background layer when you click the Open
button. To override this preference for selected images, press Shift when
clicking Open.</dd><p class="dlseparator"></p></dl>
