I would like to loads jpgs of my RAW images separately into 'Photos"

No Problem - you say!

Yes Problem - I reply.

My CF card has the jpgs on it; so download to 'Photos'. Great.

SD card with RAW images download to file for Bridge and CS5 - Problem!

All thumbnails/previews now come from the cameras jpegs....??

How do I download the RAW files and get thumbnails/previews made by CS5/Bridge from the RAW files not the cameras mono, intense, old style etc.. jpeg output??

This is new to me as never wanted to use camera jpegs until now - special project.

Thank you

Sharkey

Wow I cannot be as daft as I thought I was:).

Do I take it there is no method to do what I want? Or its too simple to bother with?

Patients Sharkey. Patients:(;)
 
I don't use Bridge, but it sounds like it is defaulting to the embedded (i.e., camera-generated) image for previews, rather than a preview generated by the raw converter. This link is for CS4, but it may be similar for CS5 -- see the "thumbnail quality options" section and see if that helps: http://www.photoshopessentials.com/basics/adobe-bridge-cs4/quick-tour/

EDIT: I think this is for the current version. See the "Specify thumbnail quality" section on page 17. https://helpx.adobe.com/pdf/bridge_reference.pdf

Yahooooooo!!

Well done that man!!!!! Took some finding (I am not the quickest) but I now have Mono in "Photos" and "RAW" in Bridge.

Which is (so it seems) the default setting; so how I have changed it I do not know. All is now well in my garden!

Thank you so much - MCH-1138
