In
the Editor, you can open and import images in various file formats
in the Editor. The available formats appear in the Open dialog box,
the Open As dialog box, and the Import submenu.
To
open a file from the Photo Browser, select it, click the Edit button , and choose
Go To Full Edit.
In
the Editor, choose File > Open.
Locate and select the file you want to open. If the
file does not appear, choose All Formats from the Files Of Type
menu.
Click Open. In some cases, a dialog box appears, letting
you set format-specific options.
There may be instances when Photoshop Elements cannot
determine the correct format of a file. For example, transferring
a file between Mac OSĀ® and Windows can cause
the format to be mislabeled. In such cases, you must specify
the correct format in which to open the file.
