Digital BW, The Print

Alan, I held out and as Bob pointed out, and I have confirmed, CS can open
them with 2.4 and DNG. I failed to go look for additional updates to CS as I
feared that Adobe was trying to push me into CS2 too.  Dan Burkholder
suggested Bruce Fraser's new book to me as another resource. I'll check into
that as he seems to discuss the DNG conversion within as well as ACR and
bridge.

ACR is Adobe Camera Raw. The current version for PC is either 3.4 or 
3.5, similar numbering for the Mac. When I got my first Nikon D2x, 
ACR 2.4 was the last version that would run in PS CS (Not CS 2) and I 
could not open my RAW files. When Adobe released a version of ACR 
that would work with my NEF files (3.2 if memory serves) they made 
sure it was NOT backwardly compatible with PS CS, it would only work 
with CS 2, forcing me to upgrade if I didn't want to be bothered with 
the DNG conversion (or other Raw coverts) process.

Hope that helps, Alan
