hi,

I’m on a pc (XP), PS CS2 won’t open .NEF files.. I just need to open them and convert them to .jpg’s.. but PS wont open them, when I try to open a .NEF file PS says it’s not "the right kind of document"..

(at home I can open them with CS3.. but here at work, on CS2, I can’t open them..)

thank you..

Can you download and install the Adobe DNG converter (actually there is no install it’s just a single executable which opens a GUI and converts a folder of RAW files).

Works great for getting new RAW files into CS2.

You have a camera that is too new to be included in the version of ACR that comes with CS2.
Every camera has a specific format of the NEF.

I may already answered your question before, or may be someone else? And the answer is still Photoshop itself doesn’t do RAW but the ARC comes with it does.
