How do I choose the color space in PS Elements?

Hi,

Have been reading a lot about color spaces and color management. I think I am going to start shooting in Adobe RGB, but what do I need to do in Elements to make sure I am working in Adobe RGB? Or is it just an automatic thing?

Thanks, Richard

I could be wrong but I believe you CANNOT choose a color space within Elements. You CAN choose to USE Color Management or not, but I think that's as far as it goes. If you have created a picture (or RAW) using Adobe RGB, and you have selected Elements to USE Color Management, then Elements will USE the colorspace in which the picture is "tagged".
