I have been unable to open a tif or jpeg panorama generated in CS3 in camera raw 4.1. The option to open in camera raw is not illuminated when a panorama is selected. The file is flattened. All other jpegs and tifs open as expected. I have navigated around the Adobe site and was unable to sort my was through it. Any experience with this issue or how to find my was through the maze of the help site at Adobe would be appreciated.

I'm not sure of the answer for this--but I do have a question. Why would you want to open a pano in RAW? Wouldn't you have already processed the original files in RAW, synced and then opened in PS--and assume that you maybe used Photomerge to stitch--which would have blended the file also if you had checked autoblend? I'm not sure I see any benefit in opening in RAW--just use adjustment layers to do any more processing. OR--are you trying to do this simply as an 'exercise'---to see if ACR WILL?

All you say it true. It started as a problem opening anything other than raw. I was able to find the reason for all the other problems and fix them and this is what is left. Panoramas generated in other programs open normally. Perhaps my curiosity got beyond the practical approach you suggest. I would still like to know why? (there is that curiosity again)

Camera Raw is limited to a MAX of 10,000 pixels in any dimension...if your pano is beyond 10K, it won't open in Camera Raw...

Thank you Schewe!! You nailed it. I cropped the image slightly to bring the long dimension under 10k pixels, and, bingo, that did it. No more problem. The dimension limit was unknown to me, and the file size was small because the shape of the panorama was small in vertical I didn't think it was a size limit.
Thanks again
