Lightroom: Exporting Files?

mizuno · 1st of February 2007 (Thu)

Is there any way to export files instead of printing them?

ie. I want to print some files at my lab, I've set them up in the Print tab with borders watermark etc, but it seems I can only print them on my printer?

Any way to export exactly what I'm looking at, inc dimensions to file?

Your answer in that case may only be to save it as a PDF with high quality images embedded. To make sure you get the best though there's no better way than to lay it out in InDesign or QuarkXPress.

Might as well just do it in Photoshop as per normal if that's the case...

I hope Adobe add this functionality to version 1.0

In Light room 4.1 you should be able to go to the menu bar and select:
File: Export

You will get a window that will allow you to choose the export folder, change the file names, select JPEG, PSD, TIFF, DNG file types and select the Color Space sRBG, aRGB or ProPhoto RGB.

There are a few other options in there as well. Hope this helps.

Library Module, on the left side should be an "export" button.
