Lightroom :: Export Multiple Versions In One Preset?
Jan 10, 2012
I have 4 different Export Presets, each one exports the selected photos with specific names and specific properties.I want to export five photos, and I want to make four versions for each photo, each version being defined by a different preset.
Is it possible that on the first three presets, I could configure them with an export action that will initiate the next preset export?I export with preset one, which has an export action that starts an export of the same files, using preset 2, until preset 4 which will not have an export action.
After using "edit in" to take an image from LR3 to CS5, I would then save the edited image by "save as" then add -1 for an edited version, -2 for b&w, -3 for a funky edit, etc. (i.e. name-1 or name-2 would be typical file names) They would all save to lightroom. However, since I upgraded to LR4, I can't do that anymore or it doesn't save the image in LR. This has thrown my whole workflow out of whack - especially since I want to use the album module and need those versions of the images for the album.
Not sure if it's a setting I'm missing, a workflow gaffe, or a feature that is simply absent. I would like new/multiple versions of a file to be persistent across multiple collections. It is not inconceivable to have an image in more than one collection; something could be in a Landscape collection, Portfolio collection, Blog Postings, and so forth. Unfortunately, it seems that if I export a file to edit in Photoshop (or any external application) it will only stack with the image in the collection from which it was sent. It will not show in any other collections so they would not include the current version of a file unless manually added.
I want to edit an export preset and in this example I want to remove the check mark to "Add to This Catalog". How do I "save" this change to that preset?
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.
For example, I often export a folder of full-res images, and then go back and do the same images as lo-res with watermarks, that I export to an "email" folder inside the hi-res folder. That way, I email the little ones for clients to peruse, and then send the full-res after they agree to buy. I know I can set up two presets and do them separately, but thought I'd ask.
I'm trying to build some export presets with a naming convention to include the current system date, eg: YYYYMMM-Title-Custom Text. This convention is oftened required for photo club, local, national & international photo competitions. The only date function I can find is the 'capture date'. Is there a way to modify the Export Filename Template Editor to include 'current system date' ??
I recently started a tumblr Blog account. Still having some problems configuring it. I created a new page in tumblr and would like to embedd a picture gallery out of Lightroom. There are some nice html presets in Lightroom, but I cant get them into tumblr. I now installed a tumblr plugin (Jeffrey Friedl), but it only let me upload a picture onto my main tumblr page. What I want is to export a HTML gallery preset not on the main page of tumbler but on the "sub" page I have created.
Why is there a 'lightroom video preset' under the preset tabs. yet when i open a video file in lightroom and go to the develop modue it says video is not supported in the develop module?
I'm thinking about moving to Maya or 3DS Max, and have a question for long-term users. How much does the interface in Maya change with each version? Do long-time users have to spend time searching for the new locations for old controls every time a new version comes out, or has it remained relatively unchanged?
I'm thinking about moving to 3DS Max, and have a question for long-term users. How much does the interface in 3DS Max change with each version? Do long-time users have to spend time searching for the new locations for old controls every time a new version comes out, or has it remained relatively solid?
I did a bunch of editing on a large group of photos but did not export them from RAW to jpegs. Is there a way to do this without doing them one by one, like a batch export?
Can prior versions of inventor access current versions of vault?As in, can Inventor 2010 access vault 2013? Or does it have inventor 2013 and vault 2013?
How can I use multiple export presets in a single step. After I am done editing, I like to export my RAW images as JPG in 4-5 different resolutions and sizes. Currently, this means having to use the export dialog for each preset. Can I do this in a single step by grouping the presets or something?
I've created a PDF preset which gives the result I want. Now I want everyone who is doing work for me, using Corel, to have the same settings.
Is there a way to export the preset or is that info stored in a file somewhere so that they can use it too (without me having to tell them all the steps and save it, etc.
I export many web graphics at the same size so with x6. I thought I would love the presets with x6 however when I set the preset to export like at 700px width it changes and re-sizes the exported graphic to 350px width. It show 700px on the screen when I load the preset however right when I click export or if I place me cursor in the transformation box it changes. I even tried to change it too 1400px hoping it would then change it to 700px but it still changes it to 350px.
The creation of viewframes with automatic station range at scale 1/2000 produces viewframes and sheets with ranges 0+000 - 0+738 then 0+738 - 1+456 and so on.
It is possible to creat onyl 1 viewframe with user specified station range i;e; 0+000 - 0+700. For a long alignment it involves to repeat the operation all along the alignment by ranges of 700 m. Or use the automatic range option and then make boring adjustments on viewframes and long profiles of the sheets to fit to the 700 m successive ranges we would like to draw.
Is there a possibility to produce directly multiple viewframes with a user specified station range of, say, 700 m on the entire alignment. If this is possible it would be great.
More great: would it be possible to set an overlap of 50 m for example between successive viewframes (sheets)ranges so that we have ranges 0+000 - 0+700 then 0+650 - 1+350 then 1+300 -2+000 and so forth.
I´m aware that Illustrator doesn´t have multiple artboards options for JPG as it does with eps, or other formats, but is there any workaround for this? Looping current artboard and exporting them to JPG or something. Or maybe there is someway to force the "save multiple artboards:true" in JPG?
export document currentDoc to file exportFolder as JPEG with options ¬ {class:JPEG export options ¬ , quality:100 ¬ , artboard clipping:true ¬ , artboard range:1 - 2 ¬ , save multiple artboards:true}
I recently purchased Lightroom 5 and have updated to 5.2. I did my first import from a file folder to the catologue. I noticed that all my .awr files imported and any edited .jpg imported, but the original .jpg would not import if there was a corresponding .awr file. I'm not sure how to fix this. I would like all my photos imported.
The workflow seems pretty intuitive. There's one area that I can't figure out though and that's how to keep track of different versions of the same image.I have a number of images that are the same "base" image but in different formats (and folders), say a RAW file and a JPEG. Is there a way to link or track those two images in Lightroom so if I make changes to one image (adding keywords, for example) the changes are made to the other automatically?
My desktop at home is a Mac 10.5 so I'm using LR3. I just bought a new MacBook Air and I've installed LR4 on it. Is it possible to work on a single dropbox-saved project from both Macs?
I have used the 30 day LR5 trial and I don't love it and prefer LR3 that I have been using for the past few years. I've created some libraries though, and want to know how I can view them if I return to using LR3 after the trial.
I didn't import the images to Lightroom, rather, I referenced them on my HD.
Do I need to export them as an older version? Or save the images in another format?
I've selected around 300 images from an intial shoot of 1200. I've assigned a star to the selected 300 and developed a colour image of each. Now, I need to make a BW version of each of the 300 images
What is the simplest way to do this? I have tried to make virtual copies of the selected 300 and assign 2 stars to enable me to keep the original 300 in colour and work on the soon to be BW versions, but when I do this I can only make a single virtual copy at a time. I'm sure it must be possible to select all 300 at once, and make 300 virtual copies somehow.
Is there a simple video demonstrating this workflow somewhere?
As I have done for years I shoot in RAW and use Nikon transfer to load images from the card to my laptop and external drive. AFter I sort the images by subject I import them to Lightroom for the final touches. Not so with Lightroom 4.2 and Nikon D600..Adobe says if yousue transfer than 4.2 will not recognize the files and too bad ...as a company they are going downhill..I hope they correct the problem so I can import the 1500 images into Lightroom for final conversions.
I just noticed that some of my photos are missing from the library in lightroom, specifically the original versions of photos that have virtual copies edited in photoshop in folders that have since been synchronized. Weird, and very anoying. The files are still there (in wondows explorer) but when I try to re-import them lightroom doesn't see them, only the PS edited copies (.tif files). I told lightroom to allow duplicates and it sees all the photos in the folder except those missing ones. This does not happen to my PS edited virtual copies in folders that have not been synchronized. It is not a matter of stacking, or at least Lightroom does not think the PS copies are stacked at all so I can't unstack them. How to get them back into lightroom (preferably with the accompanying development settings) and also how to avoid this problem in the future.
PS: I import files from my camcorder using a different program because lightroom does not acknowledge that particular video file format. That's why I have to synchronize some folders and not others.
I currently use LR5.2. In camera calibration panel, there are a few options for camera profiles, e'g., camera landscape. I created a "camera landscape" preset, which did not work. It seems that there are some missing checks in "new develop preset" box. As seen in the attachment, i placed checkmarks only in front of "process version" and "calbiration". This was not enough. It seems that the box might need more checkmarks to produce a workable landscape preset.
