I stumbled upon something today that all of you or some of you already know. But for those who don't i would like to share.
In Photoshop cs5 and it may be in previous versions i am not sure, but in adobe bridge if you would like to edit an image in adobe camera raw you can highlight the image and the hit ctrl+r and it will open that image in the camera raw editing panel, and you can edit it like a raw image.
But it is very limited in what you can do,unlike editing in raw which gives you many more options.
I can't imagine it giving all the info of an original raw pic.

No, you're right it doesn't, but you can do a lot more than what's in the usual menu. I get photos to fix that others have shot. I rarely get raw from them. I do it all the time.
You can even change white balance.
For our school composite shots we do at the begining of the year, we shoot jpeg with our Fuji S5.
We shoot all of them at the same setting & size.
I take them all into ACR and do a batch crop and any little tweaking that's needed hit the save button and voila- Done! I could do this in raw, but you wouldn't notice any difference in a 5x7 and the raw files with the Fuji are clunky. The color is amazing anyway.
You can do this in CS3, CS4, and CS5. But you cannot add information so all you are doing is adjusting the jpeg. You can also open tiff files in CS3, CS4, and CS5.

You are right. You can't add information but it is a great way to adjust jpegs or tiffs.
I thank God for my CS4. I put over 95 percent of everything I shoot through RAW image [rocessing and totally swear by such as by far the best way to help yourself and run photos through such. And I save many photos that if only shot through JPG would have had to have been deleted, or un-saveable.
