Brian & Mark figured it out - I updated ACR and it solved the problem. As Mark notes the fresh download of CS3 is not updated. Though I have activated the software it reports that there are no available updates. But it seems to be working fine - hopefully Bob S. can tell his friend.

Now this is interesting....

That file opened fine in my desktop PC's copy of CS3.  So, just for

All very odd.

Here's a thought: Adobe frequently issues updates for its software
(it's so common there's a joke about the Adobe Updater software
needing updates). If Photoshop CS3 ever received such updates they
wouldn't be present in a new, fresh install from the original disc.
(and knowing Adobe they won't be available anywhere now.)


Good point.

I checked the version of Camera Raw installed on my desktop CS3 - it's 4.6. The fresh CS3 install on the laptop had version 4.0 of Camera Raw. So, I updated it to version 4.6 and Mark C's problem file now opens OK on both the desktop and laptop machines.
