Digital BW, The Print

Eric,
   
  ACR is Adobe Camera Raw, the raw converter built into Adobe Photoshop.  I am not familiar with the workings of the DNG files, I only deal with NEF files.. When I purchased a new camera (Nikon for me), I go to the Adobe website and download the new  camera raw plug-in. Instructions for installation are on the Adobe website. Depending on your camera model you may need PS CS2 in order to get the correct plug-in.  Don't blame Adobe, blame the camera makers. Adobe does a rather good job in keeping pace with the Raw changes. Another choice is to get a stand alone raw converter.

          I must show my ignorance here, What is ACR? The DNG files are still not
being opened by PS CS. I get an error message about the file format.
