# Edit photo project pages in Photoshop CS3

If you have Adobe® Photoshop® CS3 and Photoshop Elements installed on the same computer, you can send JPEG, GIF, and other single-page photo files to Photoshop. (Set file-opening preferences in Adobe Bridge.) Photoshop does not support the multipage PSE file format, so it cannot edit entire photo projects. However, Photoshop can edit individual pages of a photo project, which are in the single-page PSD format. Use Show Package Contents to identify individual PSE and PSD files.

Photoshop offers direct control over many aspects of photo project pages, including direct editing of photo layers (called Smart Objects in Photoshop) and frames. These features are limited in Photoshop Elements to preserve its easy, automatic image-editing workflow.

1. Select the Photo Projects document.
2. In the Finder, right-click on the file and select Show Package Contents.
3. Open the folder with the same name as the PSE document.
4. Right-click the PSD file for the page you want to edit, and choose Open With > Photoshop CS.
5. In Photoshop, make your changes, and then choose File > Save. When Photoshop asks if you want to replace the existing file, click Yes.
   Important: Do not reorder or rename layers in the PSD file. Doing so could prevent the automatic editing features in Photoshop Elements from working as expected.
