Lightroom export files - smaller than ACR

• iPhoto - JPEG with Lightroom export files

  Dear community,

  I take my Photos in RAW format and use Adobe Lightroom for workflow management and the work of any photo. As a result, I create two sets of JPEG files: the full-size images are stored on my file server, while the reduced size JPEGs (approx. 1200 x 1600) I keep on my MacBook Pro. Date & time of the images exported JPEG is different to the actual hours when they were taken, I get a problem during their import in iPhoto because iPhoto 'think' that have all been taken recently. This creates a huge mess in iPhoto. I'm talking about 17,000 photos taken between 1999-2015. Given that I exported the entire stack at the same time, iPhoto shows them as taken today after importation. Photos are all stored in an appropriate folder structure (event/year).

  Now my question: How can I teach iPhoto to use the structure of folders to sort the photos in the right way? As I have said, without the pictures in chronological order, they are useless. And so is iPhoto. Why do they want to do? Simple answer, I would like to share my photos on my Apple devices and for this, iPhoto would be just perfect.

  Can someone help me with this or is that someone has a better idea for the RAW-> Lightroom-> export-> stream Jpeg iPhoto work?

  Thank you very much!

  Date & time of the images exported JPEG is different to the actual hours when they were taken, I get a problem during their import in iPhoto because iPhoto 'think' that have all been taken recently

  It's down to how you export from Lightroom. iPhoto Gets the date and time of the photo Exif metadata and uses only the data of the file if it is missing. Check your LR export procedures to write Exif data in the exported files.

  So, this is the solution to your problem.

• Lightroom - exported too small jpg

  When exporting my images raw in Lightroom I convert them to DNG, which are about 28 000 Ko.  When I export my images in jpg, they are usually only about 4-5 MB is enough but sometimes I need a larger jpg. How can I control / increase the size of the exported jpg images.  I understand that jpg is compressed, but it's a huge compression.

  Help, please

  Like I said for most of my work is enough, but I wish I had more large file size

  Lol you want a larger size of the image, not a larger file. The size of the image, in pixels or megapixels, determines if you can make enlargements or not, and what will be the quality of these extensions (as well as setting the quality slider). The size of the file is completely and totally irrelevant to the issue of can make you enlargements and does not determine the quality of the image or the quality of any enlargements. To get a larger size image, you can export the photo in Lightroom by enlarging the image in the section of resizing the Image of the Lightroom export dialog box.

• Why the Photoshop in Lightroom export file downgrade the size of the original when I reimport

  Why the export file to Photoshop and re-import in Lightroom downgrade the size of the original

  I export my raw 24 MB for Photoshop file
  It creates a file of 80 MB tiff (aprox)... Ok

  

  When I do a "Save as" file directly in an external file, I always have a 80 MB file

  

  But when I save the tiff from Photoshop file directly in Lightroom the downgrade from 14 MB file !

  

  
  Is this a problem of the actual display metadata?
  Because when I search the TIFF of the changes, it isn't always to 85 MB 14, 3 MB?

  

  I check each preferences everythings seems to be good

  Please I need help

  The info so that the image does not appear the size in megabytes of the image, but rather the number of megapixels. Megapixels do not directly translate to the size of the file. Right-click on the image and choose to display the image in the Explorer or Finder, depending on your operating system. Then you can see how big the file is in reality.

• The Lightroom export file size: why it's so small? How can I maximize the picture quality?

  My image file size is much smaller after editing and export through Lightroom. It is impossible to maintain the size of the original file in order to preserve image quality? This small file size will have a negative impact on the prints? Any help is appreciated!

  The file size is not an indicator of picture quality! You are looking at the wrong measure.

  File size is determined by the number of pixels you have, the quality slider in the dialog box export and of a dozen other things, most of which you cannot control.

  Want to watch the number of pixels (width and height) and not the size of the file.

  It is impossible to maintain the size of the original file in order to preserve image quality?

  Not only is impossible, that it is also meaningless (see above)

  This small file size will have a negative impact on the prints?

  Instead look at the size of the file, you must look at the number of pixels of the exported photo (width and height), and this will determine if you get a decent impression. The usual standard is that you need 300 pixels per inch.

• I tried a trial version of lightroom 6 and edited hundreds of photots I need to find the export files are small non-printable, about 600 kbs. So I bought lightroom 6 hoping to save my changes on all the photos. However with my purchase of more than a week

  I tried a trial version of lightroom 6 and edited hundreds of photots I need to find the export files are small non-printable, about 600 kbs. So I bought lightroom 6 hoping to save my changes on all the photos. However with my purchase of more than a week, my picture exports are still about 600 kbs. Not printable! I'm signed and registered. Whats happening?

  Looks like you have been in the library module and chose with a preset export or export to email. Whatever it is, your Presets 'export' were to reduce the size of the image exported to about 600 k.

  In Lightroom, the library module and under the file menu, simply select the Word Export. Who will open another dialog box. GO through each option in this dialog box to choose where you want to export the file, what color space to use, what name to give to each folder, what metadata to include and do not forget to select the export size! I included a few screenshots for your reference.

  If you export exactly the same path several times, you can create your own export preset to make this process faster.

  

• Lightroom export: Size of small files

  Evening,

  I recently started using Lightroom after years of using Photoshop. One thing that I find difficult to understand, export.

  After editing just one portrait as my first practice in Lightroom, I saved the file as 100% quality and JPEG. This resulted in a tiny 872 kb file size. Confused, I have reproduced the simple in Photoshop, saved as a full quality JPEG editing process and this resulted in a file size of 9 MB.

  Side by side, expanded, I see no difference in quality. I noticed that the recorded image Lightroom has 240 dpi and Photoshop image 72 dpi.

  Then, I went back to Lightroom and saved the same image as. TIF, resulting in a file size of 107 MB with no visible improvement in quality.

  Lightroom is known for tiny file sizes? I'm doing something wrong? I do not understand why, how and what is happening with the sizes of export and file in Lightroom. I'd like an explanation.

  Looks like you have checked resize it to fit, or checked the limit of the file size to... in the Lightroom export dialog.

  Other than that, the file size is not a good indicator of the quality of the image - pixel dimensions are.

  PPI is also devoid of meaning and irrelevant unless you want to print the image. PPI is metadata used by printer drivers to calculate the physical dimensions of the impression.

  TIFF files are much larger than the jpg file size because they are uncompressed or use lossless compression, which is much less efficient than the jpg (lossy) compression. TIFF files can also be 16 - bit, which are twice the size of 8-bit files.

• Exported file is smaller than I thought

  Help, pls! When I exported an illustrator file, it became smaller than the frame. I already tried to change the resolution to 1920x1280px but I still get a small image. When I try to export the png file, it seems that the image has another training, greater than the work plan.

  you will need to give more info.

  Anyway, I'm not psychic, but you might have a bigger plan of work that overlap the work that you are trying to export and you export the largest work plan.

  Another possibility could be that you have not the option 'use work plans' is selected when you export, so your export is the size of all the objects on your file, not just the artboard, you are working on.

• Export of base files from indesign to PDF - smaller than original ID dilemma printed results

  Apologies in advance, it will be probably as easy...

  After exporting a document then Indesign from base (no scan) to a PDF file, print from the PDF comes out smaller than the original Indesign document.

  Even if it's as simple as an image or a basic text in a text box.

  I tried searching for the answers but can't see anything that matches. Are there basic settings I'm missing somewhere? I would have thought that is a simple enough question, but obviously not.

  Thanks in advance!

  The deafult drive parameter is the page scaling to fit the print area on the paper. Set the scale on a scale not your PDF printing.

• Lightroom is really better than a bridge and ACR?

  I use Bridge and ACR for years. I have been turned off to learning Lightroom, but feel I can do is not so much because it seems the standard for photo editing.

  So I sat down and tried to understand, and it was a pain in my butt. I guess that's just the learning curve, but it is not as simple as I thought it would be.

  Is it really that much better than ACR and bridge? Should I even waste my time to learn?

  If you have a good Bridge/ACR workflow then technically has no interest that Lightroom if you compare editing capabilities. Lightroom and Camera Raw have both share the same raw processing engine. You can get the same results of both programs. I switched to Lightroom years because I just love some of the things in the interface is better I like to work with Camera Raw. But it's my choice. I take no sides of the cataloging features as much as I can in Lightroom. I use it mainly for the develop module features. And I want to print from Lightroom as well. I don't think you should feel loose or lower when you talk to other photographers, just because you use Camera Raw and Bridge. Tools can give identical results. It's mostly a matter of choosing which is best for you.

• Hi people! Can someone advise me something in Lightroom please CC.  When I export files once after you have finished the adjustments etc. and I click 'Save with the previous' - how to find where it was recorded, if I forgot the last folder saved to?

  Can someone advise me something in Lightroom please CC. When I export files once after you have finished the adjustments etc. and I click 'Save with the previous' - how to find where it was recorded, if I forgot the last folder saved to?

  I guess you mean "Export with previous. If so, open the export page. It will be defined as "precedent".

• Why is my file size "Combined PDF" smaller than the original files?

  Hello!

  I try to combine two individual PDF files into a single PDF file. Each file is 32 MB, but when I use acrobat to combine, the newly created "combined" file is only 19 MB. I think I took the necessary steps to ensure no degradation that happens (e.g. large selection size of the file in the Panel options), but I'm still puzzled as to how the two files can be set up as one and be smaller than the two separate files with out any compression. What Miss me?

  Thanks in advance!

  When you combine a file, it performs an operation of "save under".  This rewrites all the PDF object in the single file and is supposed to clean the file, while the single files may have had several saves which when you look at the inner workings of the PDF file simply add at the end of the file.  In other words, you get a file more cleanly written and optimized is also recorded for a quick display of Web pages.

• Is it possible to tell lightroom to just re - export the previously exported files?

  Shooting a celebration (Park, mass and left), went home and process raw files in Lightroom, exported in 3 files.

  Then I went to edit the files in photoshop, first record, which consisted of the Park went well. Files is superb, even after compress them again.

  Then place were pictures of the mass, and that's where everything went down hill. When I loaded up the first image, it has been compressed to to hell all black areas were all pixelated, so I went in lightroom and of course it changed the quality of 100% up to 60%!

  All my other settings are the same, so I don't accidentally reset the whole thing. Don't know why or how Lightroom did it, I got it on 100% for the last 2 years!

  Now I have to export them all over again, the problem is there was 800 that I pulled down to only 150. I don't want really to hand pick them all over again.

  Is it possible to tell lightroom to just re - export the previously exported files?

  The short answer: No.

  Lightroom remembers files imported recently in a collection, but remember recently exported files.

  That said, you can use the plugin (free, by me) SQLiteroom to assemble a collection of * all * files, which could help exported.

• Export of smaller files?

  Hello, could someone give me a point in the right direction?

  Ideally, I would like to be able to take my digital camera (very amateur) video files and make them shorter, so all the boring parts are cut and have the file that results as of similar size and quality as possible to the original. May I use the tools badly completely - any help would be appreciated.

  
  I take with my camera Samsung Digimax L85 video files, that load on my computer as small, fairly low quality. View. When I try to edit in Adobe Premiere Pro CS4, export files are much larger (up to 100 x greater, depending on codec) or of very poor quality. I heard that there is no way around it by exporting, sincem I'm compressing already compressed sequences. But I just ache to believe that the quality of the video files from my digital camera little shit really can't be duplicated (more or less) by first exporting.

  I heard that the h264 codec is the best bet for the quality to size ratio. But trying to export this way gives me a very nervous motion. Is there a way to get smoother motion? More I put the 'keyframe distance' option, the more the nervousness goes far - at the expense of the extreme image quality. Do you have any suggestions?

  
  Thank you

• Lightroom export - original file with the Lightroom change data

  Hello, Hello!

  I imported a file, for the sake of arguments, some JPEG files, TIFF and DND in Lightroom photos, leaving the files in place and just linking them to the library of the Lightroom Catalog. I then did a bunch of 'changes' to photos in Lightroom (the data of these changes are stored in the Lightroom catalog file, right?).

  Now can I export some of the photos from Lightroom so that the file that comes out is, in the same/different file format (e.g. JPEG/TIFF/DNG) and have the change Lightroom incorporated (perhaps in the EXIF data) data from the exported file? Can I then open it with a 'normal' program and have it show the original? Can I open it with Lightroom/Photoshop (?) so it shows the original with the change data applied?

  Thank you very much! :-))

  Now can I export some of the photos from Lightroom so that the file that comes out is, in the same/different file format (e.g. JPEG/TIFF/DNG) and have the change Lightroom incorporated (perhaps in the EXIF data) data from the exported file?

  Yes, but you must not export. Simply press Ctrl / Cmd + S to save metadata. the metadata will be incorporated into files. Note that the image will not be altered. In other words, if you view the jpeg format in an external viewer, you will not see adjustments made in Lightroom. Only Adobe products can interpred those.

  Can I then open it with a 'normal' program and have it show the original?

  Yes.

  Can I open it with Lightroom/Photoshop (?) so it shows the original with the change data applied?

  Yes. When you open in Photoshop, and it's a non - RAW (such as JPEG or TIFF) file, there is an option somewhere in Camera RAW to be used for the opening no-RAWs. The point is, those who must go through Camera RAW, instead opened directly in Photoshop, to correctly interpret metadata.
