I seem to have problems sizing an image and exporting. Before, I always cropped and rotated my photos in PS, but as I more and more use LR, I am finding problems.
When I export, I set my sizes W5400 x H3600 for horizontal and LR4 exports at various sizes, cutting short one size. For example I have just gone through a video and checked the correct boxes and still its fails to provide an image exactly at the sizes I want. My latest exports are horizontal 5400x3594 and a vertical 3597x5400...
If I set it at 3600 x 5400 and vice cersa, those parameters are what I set and what I want, no compromise.....is this a LR fault or am I missing something?
When I export an image and specify the maximum dimensions in the Image Sizing section, Lightroom only honors the maximum width or height if both original dimensions are below the requested setting.
For example, I have an image with original dimensions of 2592x1936.
If I export using 1935x1935 in the Image Sizing section with option "Width & Height" or "Dimension", I get an exported file with dimensions 1935x1445. The "width" is properly constrained to the maximum value I've entered.
However, if I export using 1937x1937, the resulting exported file has dimensions 2592x1936--the original size of the image.I've tried the same with an original image of 1936x2592 and get similar results.
When exporting a raw file to tif I set the output sizing to megapixel. When I did it to 58 megapixel at 300dpi it gave me a 165mb file size To get a 58mb file I had to go back and forth to find the setting should be 20 megapixels.
Exporting images in LR 5.3 with resize setting of "short edge" does not re-size the image at all when the option for "do not enlarge" is checked. Instead it simply exports the full sized image. This happens even if you are trying to downsize an image (in my case from a 24MP image to one that is 800px wide), in other words you are not enlarging the photos so the option for "do not enlarge" should not apply.
Other sizing options like "long edge" appear to work as expected.Have tried restarting LR but no effect. Have tried changing export setting and then changing back to "short edge", again no effect.
No matter which options I choose, all of my exports into PNG and JPG formats (in Photo & Graphic Designer 7) come out small - about 1/4 the size of what I think they should be. What do I need to do to export them at their original size?
How do I size a picture in Adobe? Either before I make changes to the picture or after, I go to 'Image' then 'image size' and I try to change the dimensions of the photograph, but it automatically it refers to its own preferred size. How do I unlock it so as to adjust it to my likings?
When I export a photo to a sRGB file, there is way to much color in the photo. In Lightroom 4.2 the photo looks good, but when I open the exported photo It looks like its to much saturated. When I export the photo as AdobeRGB (1998), strange enough the photo looks for 95% oke.
I'm using a Eizo ColorEdge CG243W monitor in sRGB mode. To ensure that it's not my monitor that's causing the problem, I've watched both photo's (sRGB and aRGB) on a standard monitor on a different computer. The result is the same: to much color in the sRGB file, pretty good colors in the aRGB file.
I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium, 64 bit. My videocard is a MSi Radeon R7850. I'm using Lightroom 4.2 (system info says: [850741]).
I've just bought this system. Before I've used another computer, with the same monitor, were I've tried Lightroom 3.2. I didn't experienced any problems there. Then I also used the monitor in sRGB mode. When I exported to a sRGB file, the photo came out perfect.
Is it possible to export the settings of each photo with the photo itself. Like. I want to save the adjustments (clarity, exposure, higlights etc) I made for each photo in some text file or within photo's metedata maybe. Reason being, later if I want to reproduce the same effect on same or different photo I can do so. (I'm not talkin about copy option where it copies the settings and you can apply to the oher pics.)
When I export a photo from lightroom to photoshop, work on it and click control/s it saves the file back into lightroom, but then I have to save it again to close photoshop or I get a dialog. Why am I having to save twice in a row when nothing has changed the document? Windows 7 photoshop cc lightroom 5.2.2
When I try and export a photo in LR4 I get the following message:
"An internal error has ocurred: Win32 API error 2 (“The system cannot find the file specified.”) when calling ShellExecuteExW from AgWorkspace.shellExecute"
Even so, it does export the photo to the right directory.
I get this error when trying to export fom lightroom 3.6. It happens when exporting to disk or using one of the plugins. What causes it? How can I fix it?
I would like to know if there is a way to export a photo with a black frame where on the bottom line some additional information is given (like aperture, shutter speed, ISO, ...)?
As a photojournalist I upload my pictures to news agencies, using captions and keywords to add information to the files. While captions work fine, the keyword formation of Lightroom puts me in trouble, when I export the files to upload them to the agencies.
I would need the keywords to be separated by commas, like here:
Germany, Berlin, Angela Merkel, Politics
Unfortunately, when I export the images, Lightroom writes them without separation-commas (only puts the keywords in separate lines), like this:
I changed the resolution on a photo to 500 in the export screen. What do I reset it back to for the highest resolution. I changed to 500 to email a photo.
I have a preset that allows me to export my photo to a subfolder of the original folder. In my case it's simply called jpg export. This allows me to do all my edits when the shot is in it's original "Date taken" folder and all my edited shots from that folder show up in the jpg export folder when I run the preset. My issue is that the jpg shows up in BOTH the original folder and the jpg export folder. I know it's operator error but what's wrong with my settings? Under Export Location I have Export To: Same folder as original photo (this is the reason for my problem but I am not sure what to change it to) Put in Subfolder: is checked and the folder is called jpg export. Add to This Catalog: is also checked.
A drive I kept my photos on corrupted and some of my folders of photos went missing.
I have a reasonable sized preview, I can go in and look at the image, the only difference is I can't zoom in to 1:1. I want to export the preview image from lightroom, its still better than losing the whole image.
Is there anyway to do that? the usual export throws a missing file alert.
I need precise image sizing for matting and framing.
If I chose a width of 11.5 in Cell Size, why are my prints larger than that? Margins are 0 (which shouldn't matter anyway on 13" paper). I need .75" on each side.
My image is cropped to 2:3 ratio, same as my camera. What am I missing?
I have just purchased LR in order to see if it can efficiently catalog my 100k of raw photographs (19 meg each).These reside on a 7tb network drive. Since LR does not allow me to place the catalog on a large external network drive. I want to know how large it will get.
I would also like to to process 100k+ of photos....I want to know if this is a good digital photo asset management system for collections of this size...or not.
Am trying to create a gallery for webpage using Macromedia Flash MX 2004, have imported photo's into library and got the Flash gallery to publish. But am concerned as the flash .swf file is only 273kb with 20 images in it, the existing gallery file I am wanting to replace is approximaately 2.5mb. I was advised to downsize each photo to 300x200 pixels which seems to fit the display in the flash file. Thought maybe I am doing something wrong in Photoshop when I am resizing each photo from original 3 or 4 mb photo down to the 300x200 pixel size. Any clues out there?
I'd like to create a totally custom page, inserting photos at various locations and sizes as well as text regions. Can this be done? I haven't been able to find a way to do this.
Image Sizing Dimensions produces wrong image sizes upon export for certain images.
Example, I have export set up for iPad resolution, 2048x1536px at 264ppi. If I now export an 3264x4928px image it should be resized to 1356x2048px. What I get is 1356x2047 instead, one pixel too short on the long side. This doesn't happen for all images source resolutions and ratios though. I haven't figured out the pattern yet.
Win 8.1 64 bit A Toshiba Satellite laptop, LR 5.3. When I try to export I get a window without export buttons at the bottom to do the export. Further if I try to resize the export window the export window disappears and LR freezes requiring to ctrl/alt/del to close it. I cannot export anything to HD or email, etc.
I was in a class last night where everyone had Macs and the buttons appeared on their versions and worked fine. Totally repeatable. I can supply screen shots.
I've created various snapshots of a series of photos and I'm ready to export. Is there a way to export all the snapshots at once, in a single export step? Up to now, I've been doing this step by step, exporting one version of the image, than going to the next snapshot and exporting again.
After editing in perfect photo I cannot unstack the edited photo in LR4. The thumbnail shows the number of photos in the stack, but right click/expand stack has no effect. The edited photo is not showing.
After finally running out of space on my computer I've shifted my photo library onto an external hard drive. I did this outside of lightroom as I did not expect there to be too many complications
There is a general folder named "Photos" and within are the sub folders for the photos. I did a simple drag and drop from my computer to the hard drive and expected Lightroom to simple show the new directory in the folder panel.
What would be the simplest way to re-access the files since moving them to the new hard drive?
I have to send a company a photo in RGB format - I can convert it from JPEG to RGB, but can not get it to export out of Photoshop Elemement 11 - Also I really am not sure what RGB is, perhaps I don't need to know - I got a file onto my desktop that I believe was saved as RGB, but can not remember how I did it? Also can I share from Photoshop Elements 11 to other sites such as Istock or FB?
