I have been using PSE 5 successfully with manufacturer-supplied ICC profiles for my Ilford and Hahnemuehle papers (Canon i9900). The PSE 7 Print dialog is significantly diffeent and I cannot find those two profiles on my drop-down profile list. They are still where they always were (/WINDOWS/SYSTEM32/COLOUR) and they show up in PSE 5 Print dialog but not PSE 7.

Can anyone advise on this?

You may have encountered a bug -- see this FAQ:

That's done it - the arrow keys scroll the list.

PE 7 does seem buggy. There is also an issue (?) with the Crop tool, where all settings on the whatever-you-call-it bar are greyed out under circumstances which seem to have no rhyme or reason. Reset Tool resets to No Restriction but that's not much help. If you quit and restart Editor the problem seems to go away, sometimes.

Eric,

Glad that workaround helped. What is the resolution of your display?

This is what the drop-down list of printer profiles looks like on my computer:

Does that help, or were you thinking of something else?

I'm 1920x1200. Which reminds me, all us photographers/layout guys out here in not-quite-20/20-land REALLY WISH Adobe would make some accessibility concessions on the dialog boxes etc...like providing S/M/L choices the way Corel does. I have a hotkey magnifier which is fine but hey, we're not all eagle-eyed!

Vista 32 or Vista 64? (I'm trying to discern a pattern in who's affected by this bug.)
