Moving Camera Raw Presets

 

Camera Raw 4.1 has a new Presets panel.  It lets you save popular or frequently used settings so you don’t have to re-create them each time (say, for a black-and-white photo).  Here’s the tip: If you ever change computers, you’ll probably want to take those settings along with you. It’s not quite as easy as you’d think though.  So here’s how: First go find the presets folder. On a Mac, it’s located in User:Library:Application Support: Adobe:CameraRaw:Settings.  On a PC, look in C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Adobe\CameraRaw\Settings. Then copy any of the preset XMP files in there to the same folder on the computer you want to move them to.  The next time you go into the Camera Raw dialog, you’ll see your new presets in the Presets panel.

Viewing and Basking in your Image

When I’m done working with an image, I like to sit and admire it (hey, I spent six hours working on it, I should). To do that, I hit the Tab key, then hit the F key three times. This hides all of the panels and toolbars and lets you see the image by itself surrounded by black. To get back to regular mode, press the F key and the Tab key one more time.
