Generally, these may be left at their defaults\/<\/li>\n<li>Cache: Clear the cache if problems are experienced with thumbnails (new in v2.1 &#8211; not present in v2.0).<\/li>\n<li>Inspector: not really relevant unless using <a href=\"http:\/\/www.adobe.com\/products\/creativesuite\/versioncue\/\">Adobe VersionCue<\/a> to manage workflow.<\/li>\n<li>Startup Scripts: these can be disabled if not used but I have left them at the default settings (removing scripts will accelerate application load times).<\/li>\n<li>Advanced: this is the place to clear the cache if there are issues with thumbnail display; international settings for language and keyboard are also set here; software rendering should be avoided if there is suitable graphics hardware available to do the work instead.<\/li>\n<li>Adobe Stock Photos: probably of limited use to people who would like to sell their work!  In fact, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.adobe.com\/products\/creativesuite\/stockphotos\/faq\/\">the service was discontinued in April 2008 and can be uninstalled from Bridge<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Meetings: Only relevant with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.adobe.com\/products\/acrobatconnect\/\">Adobe Acrobat Connect<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Camera Raw (my installation has been updated to v4.5.0.175; the version originally shipped with my copy of Photoshop CS3 was v4.0):\n<ul>\n<li>Preferences (available in other Photoshop applications whilst loaded): save image settings in sidecar (.XMP) files; apply sharpening to preview images only; Camera Raw cache defaults to 1GB and can be purged if issues are experienced; JPEG and TIFF handling selected (not available in v4.0).<\/li>\n<li>Main interface: ensure Preview is selected.<\/li>\n<li>Workflow options (link at the bottom of the ACR window): Adobe RGB (1998) is probably the best colour space for most photographers (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.cambridgeincolour.com\/tutorials\/sRGB-AdobeRGB1998.htm\">Sean T. McHugh explains more about the comparison between sRGB and Adobe RGB 1998<\/a>); use 16-bits per channel; use size and resolution to upscale (for better results than applying interpolation in Photoshop).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Photoshop (CS3: v10.0):\n<ul>\n<li>General: Color picker should be set to Adobe; Image interpolation should be selected according to purpose but bicubic smoother is probably the most useful for photographers.<\/li>\n<li>Interface: Select remember palette locations.<\/li>\n<li>File handling: select the prefer Adobe Camera Raw for <em>filetype<\/em> options if you want to open JPEG or RAW files in Adobe Camera Raw (recommended); increase the length of the recent file list if required; disable version cue if not required.<\/li>\n<li>Performance: Photoshop is memory hungry but don&#8217;t let it take more than 70% of the available RAM (that is the default) &#8211; use the ideal range as a guide; adjust scratch disk settings if you have multiple disks available; enable 3D acceleration if supported by the GPU; increase the number of history states if possible.<\/li>\n<li>Transparency and Gamut: ensure opacity is set to 100% (default setting).<\/li>\n<li>Units and rulers: minimum print resolution for new documents should be 300ppi (72ppi is fine for screen).<\/li>\n<li>Plug-ins: this is only relevant if you have plug-ins for an old version of Photoshop or in a strange location.<\/li>\n<li>Cursors; Guides, Grid, Slices and Count; Type: Nothing to change.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Of course, this is just scraping the surface &#8211; these applications alone are probably not the complete workflow and each of them offers far more functionality than most photographers will require.  If you&#8217;re using the CS3 applications for graphic design work, then you&#8217;ll probably have a totally different setup.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A couple of weeks back, I wrote about Adobe Photoshop CS3 from a photographer&#8217;s perspective and in this post I&#8217;ll outline some of the application preferences for Bridge (CS3), Camera Raw (4.x) and Photoshop (CS3) that may be useful when setting up a digital photography workflow (with thanks to David Tunnicliffe, who originally provided me &hellip;
