Exporting tiffs with adjustments including 4x6 crop

I have Lightroom 1.2 and have (finally) made adjustments to many tiff photos. All are tiff scans and all were different sizes until I used the crop adjustment in Lightroom. I've also made contrast, levels and other changes and all have been cropped to 4x6.
Now I would like to simply select all the photos I want to export and have them exported with Lightroom adjustments. I've tried exporting but they are exported without adjustments. I've searched in the Help and on the web and still can't find any instuctions about how to export them with adjustments.
I'd like to export them all as cropped 4x6 pictures so that I can slap them on a DVD and get my local photo shop to print them out as 4x6 format so that I can build a couple or real-world photo albums for my two brothers.
Can this really be that difficult to do? I sort of figured that Lightroom would be smart enough for me to be able to do that. I've been able to print to my own printer (with adjustments) from Lightroom itself so why is it turning into an uphill battle to simply save them all as adjusted 4x6 tiffs?
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

A very good suggestion and one I would never have considered. My local is only charging about £15 for 100 prints though so it won't be an entire disaster if they don't pan out. It is amazing. I bought an Olympus P-10 and was using it to print but since introducing that model the media has trippled in price and I did the maths the other day and worked out that I was paying twice as much per print as my local charges. It is a nice printer but unfortunately the bottom line for me is cost. I tend to buy kit in 2s and so I have another printer under my bed (for backup) but it looks as if that particular purchase was a white elephant.
Thanks again. Very decent of you both to have repled so fast to my question. You guys are 5-8 hrs behind in the good-old land-of-the-free but it is late here in the UK. I'm only up because I'm watching the shuttle lauch and listening to the on-board live audio via NASA TV. I thought (when I posted) that I'd check my Mbx 2mrw but am so glad I checked it out 2nite.
Hope all goes well with the mission. God bless America. Keep it free as a beacon to the rest of the World.

Exporting TIFF with Pages

Hi everyone. I'm a stranger here and need your help.
I got a huge problem when I tried to export TIFF images with Pages.
I use Pages to create documents or issues and export them into TIFF, then send them to printers. Everything is OK with Lion. But since I updated to Mountain Lion, I couldn't do that anymore. When I choose Print/Save PDF to folder as TIFF, I got a warning saying "The action “Render PDF Pages as Images” encountered an error." I've searched on the Internet and got some solutions but they didn't work. I couldn't find any workflows in Library/PDF Services except "Save PDF to Web Receipts Folder" and "Mail PDF" which I don't use. Again, with Lion, I can find those workflows, change the rules or create a new one. But now, with MT, in two Library folders, I can't find those workflows. Oddly enough, they appear on the PDF menu in Pages.
I can only use Pages to create things, currently I just can't finish my work. I'm very nervous.
Thank you all!(I'm Chinese, so maybe there're something wrong in that pragraph, SORRY!!)

The pixels are not the actual measure of quality.
It is true you need 300dpi or 120lpc for quality output, but OSX may be downgrading the resolution of all or parts of the page and all you are doing is uping the resolution from the lower OSX output.
More pixels, same information does not improve the quality.
Are your actual photos in the layout 300dpi images at the size they are used? If so, without any transparency they should stay that resolution in the pdf and final output.
A pdf file opened in Preview and saved as a tiff allows you to set the resolution anyway. Make sure it is the same as in Pages any change will blur/degrade the images.
Text should be at a much higher resolution to be sharp (at least 800dpi preferably 1200), and best left as vector graphics in a pdf file.

Exporting photos with adjustments

I've recently been sorting through pictures from various events, and I've made some adjustments to them in lightroom - cropping, tone etc. However, when I export the images, the adjustments aren't applied and the images are just as they were input. How would I keep the adjustments?

LR is non-destructive by default; in other words, the adjustments you make are stored in LR as a set of processing instructions, so to speak. Sort of like storing negative film with instructions like "dodge left corner," "push process," "crop to 8x10," etc. None really get applied until you export, sort of like "printing" to a digital file. And when you do that, you have additional choices for applying other changes, from export file type to size, etc. If you're using RAW, you can't really export a RAW with LR adjustments because then it isn't a RAW any more.

Exporting master images WITH adjustments

Hello,
I have a simple question about exporting images.
Let's say I have imported a bunch of raw images into my Aperture Library (but they are referenced files, located in the folder specified by me). Then I have worked on them. And now I want to backup my work - all my adjustements. But I don't want to export them as new versions (jpgs), but just export the raw files together with adjustments I have just made.
How do I do that?
Any help would be really appreciated.
Best greetings,

This is where the Adobe DNG could shine.
http://www.adobe.com/products/dng/index.html
Worth the read ... this can save the changes that one
makes.
DNG does NOT help in this case.
There is a huge misunderstanding that this is part of what DNG can or should do.
But if you think about it, what good are the adjustments being stored in DNG if you have to use a particular program to open it anyway?
Think about Aperture's Edge Sharpen for a second. Lets say you store that value in a DNG. Fine, what other program is going to able to reproduce that result EXACTLY to how you were previewing it at 100% on your monitor?
Lighroom is trying to do something along these lines by passing editing commands off to Bridge through DNG. But here you run into another problem - it constrains what editing any one program can do. If Lightroom is limited to only ever having editing commands that are the same as what Bridge offers, and no other program on earth supports them, then what have you really accomplished? Will unknown editing commands simply be dropped without warning?
That's why I think simply exporting projects, which hold master images alongside sidecar files (very like XMP) that describe edits are about as good as you are going to get. If you want to truly preserve editing work and you care about quality, nothing beats a TIFF file where 100% of the pixels are exactly as you reviewed them during editing. I personally trust Aperture enough to back up master images along with edits, and am fine with that.

In iPhoto, how can I export images with the metadata - including the title and caption information - intact as part of the image?

In Indesign CS6 I export an artboard to TIFF with the sdk's funtion SnapshotUtilsEx- ExportImageToTIFF(iStream) and, the resulting file is one pixel too large in the X, leaving a transparent strip on one edge. Any idea if there is a bug in the sdk?

An easy example to prove this bug of Indesing CS6: I create a psd with Photoshop CS6, with width 505 pixels, height 317 pixels and a resolution of 300 pixels per inch. This psd is placed on a page in InDesign CS6. Then I try to export it as a tiff with the functions:
fSnapshotUtilsEx->Draw(flags,fullResolutionGraphics,greekBelowPtSize,enableAntiAliasing,tr ansparencyQuality,abortCheck,pVPAttrMap,bDrawNonPrintingObjects);
and
SnapshotUtilsEx-> ExportImageToTIFF (iStream)
The resulting tiff has a width of 506 pixels (one pixel more in width). It will happen the same if we start with a width of 507 pixels, etc.
This error does not occur with Indesign CS5, nor Indesing CC.

Can't export to DNG with adjustments

HI all. I'm having a problem exporting a DNG file as an original or as DNG with adjustments. All the exports is the original DNG file. I do get a clean export with adjustments when I export to jpg. any thoughts?
here's the details: software is lightroom 4.1 and camera raw 7.1. File was NEF converted to DNG on import. numerous adjustment to tone, w/brushes, etc. xmp written to file. tried dng export preset as well as through the export module. exported to various versions of camera raw. all with no luck. opened in CS 5 and Preview, with the same results: no adjustments to DNG.
I have won a free high-end print and the printer says DNG will be better. Any thoughts??? have searched the forum to no avail.....
Thanks in advance!
David

My understanding is tht you have to direct Lr to save the develop settings to the dng files. Open - Edit - Catalog Settings - Metadata - Check the box "automatically write changes to xmp".

LR 2.5 won't export TIFF files with LZW or ZIP compression??

I've just updated to LR2.5 and CR5.5, I'm using Vista Ultimate x64 on an AMD x2 64 bit pc.
LR worked fine until 2.4 came along and hijacked all my auto play settings. Adobe finally releases 2.5 and now I find if I export TIFF files from a Nikon D700 NEF all I get is a black box the same size as the image??? If I turn LZW or ZIP compression off and export uncompressed the export works again. JPEG also exports ok.
Anyone else getting this? Have you found out what's causing it?
James.

Thanks for the feedback Jao,
I just tried across the whole range of TIFF options and the only files that don't give me a black file are 8bit and 16 bit with no compression. LZW and ZIP both stuff up
Might try a complete uninstall and reinstall to see if that fixes things. These sorts of things only happen when you are in a rush to get lots of work done!

Export/import masters *with* adjustments?

Hi,
I've a Mac Pro with my main Aperture installation, and a Mac Book with an Aperture installation for when I'm travelling. I would like to export masters and the adjustments from the Aperture library in the Mac Book and import them in the Aperture library in the Mac Pro.
Any advice? Aperture 2.1.

OK, I figured it out myself. Here's what I did. If you do this and manage to mess things up, it's your responsibility.
I have an external hard drive with a vault that contains the backups of the images on my Mac Book. I connected that drive to my Mac Pro. I showed the vault's contents with Finder, and similarly the Mac Pro's library contents. I copied the X.approject that contains the files I want to import/export with adjustments and other metadata from the vault to Mac Pro's library. Then I started Aperture by pressing Option/Command, and rebuilt the library.
It worked fine, I have the ratings and white balances etc. copied with the images.

Exporting Mainstage Concert with Samples included

Exporting PDF with cropmarks

I've got some artwork and need to make a PDF with cropmarks from Illustrator 10.
I add cropmarks using Object/Cropmarks/Make and that looks fine.
But I can't get them into a PDF.
If I "Save as PDF" or "Save a copy", the result contains everything EXCEPT the cropmarks.
(Oddly enough PDF is not offered as an "Export" format.)
I can create a PS file with Print command, and distill it, but that's rather tedious.
Failing a way to export cropmarks, is there a simple way to convert them into normal lines, or do I have to redraw them by hand?

Alan Sargent wrote:
No, not in my version (10). I only see those mentioned under "Separation setup".
Not sure about Version 10... but couldn't have changed that much..
Your AI file:
Save As
Choose PDF from the file save options
PDF save dialogue opens
Choose the quality of the PDF files from the drop down at the top of the dialogue panel
In the left panel of the dialogue panel / window there are options... look for the 'Marks and Bleeds' (or similar)
In the options there, should be under 'All Printer's Marks', choose / select 'Trim Marks'
That'll include the crop marks... Maybe the interface has changed a bit since version 10, but if you explore the options under the PDF saving panel, am sure you'll find them. Alternatively, try the Help...
Edit: Further, i see from your attachment, that you have a bleed. You can set that under the "Use Document Bleed Settings'... make it about 3-5mm on each side... otherwise you'll get the crop marks without the bleed...
BTW... how are you creating the crop marks? Hopefully the very base of the page (bottom-most layer) has a base colour to which you have added the crop marks from the menu?
If none of the above works, wait for Jacob to come around... he still uses version 10
Edit 2: If you see it under "Separations", check it there and see...

Print quality poor when exporting tiff from Ai

I recently sent an Illustrator file to FedEx Office to be printed and it just didn't look great. What do I need to fix (other than getting a real printing company! ) in order to get a higher print quality?
This is what I did:
Created a file in Illustrator then exported it as a tiff. (I needed it cropped and didn't like what I got by cropping it using the Pathfinder steps/options.)
Placed the tiff file in a new Illustrator file.
Printed it as a pdf.
The pdf version of my illustration was horrid, so I had them print it from the Illustrator file. It was considerably better, but still had diagonal stripes (gradient) and vertical stripes (printing).
How can I remedy this problem?

Clipping Mask
Draw a closed path over the objects you want to maswk or crop, in this case probably a rectangle using the rectangle tool.
then select all the objects and the shape to be used as a mask.
then go to Object>Clipping Mask>Make
BTW Scott's answer shouldbe marked as the answer.

What We Know
The error invalid export DLL or export format may occur when exporting to Excel and RTF formats in .NET applications utilizing the Crystal Reports 2008 runtime (v 12.0)
Other export formats like Adobe PDF, Crystal Reports, CSV all export with no error
Some customers have resolved this by adding C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 to their environment path variables
This may have something to do with the file libpng10.dll. Both crxf_xls.dll and crxf_rtf.dll are dependent on it.
Thanks in advance for your co-operation. We hope to figure out what is causing this issue soon.

Hi,
I am also having the same problem, except that I am not using Crystal Report 2008 runtime but the actual Crystal Report 2008 installation on Windows XP SP2 with VS Studio 2005 (VC++). MS .NET Framework 2.0.
Cyrstal Report XIR2 was installed on the same machine but uninstalled before installing Crystal Report 2008.
So only one instance of libpng10.dll and found in C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86

libpng10.dll       3/1/2008 version 1.0.30.0             122880 bytes
There is no problem for exporting to pdf, html, word, csv, Crystal Report. If I create a testing report without any data from database, the testing report can then be exported also to rtf and xls.
Oracle 11.1.0.6 is the DB for the reports.
Adding C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 to the path did not resolve my problem.
Any idea to fix this issue?

Error "Failed to Export PDF" with big image on CS6 (32) and CC (64)

Hi everyone,
I'm on indesign CS6 (v8.0.2) and when I try to export pdf with a very big image ( *.tiff, 25000*35000 pixels, ) , the action failed with this message :" Failed to export a PDF".
To be sure that there is no any corrupted elements, I made a very simple layout (one page , and just one element for my image,I turnoff prefilgth and all ressource intensive options, and export with no downsampling or resampling) and try to export with different size image:with 20000*30000 -or smaller -image the export works, always failed with image .The export failed to in scripting mode.
If I diveded my image in four , the export works but this solution is not convenient (I actually made tests for a fully automatised process, and we want to be sure that the indesign component is enough "safe")
I try the same action with an evaluation version of indesign CC 64 bits (v9.2) and have the same behavior.
I can imagine that there is a memory issue there, but my config seems to be strong ( windows server 64 with 16GB ram, DD with more than 100GB free). I don't undersant why-in a "full" 64 bit environnement- it is not possible to manipulate and export very large image ?
I'm wonder If the background task is a part of the problem, and if it 's possible to disable it in CS6 or CC as in cs5 ( creates an “DisableAsyncExports.txt” file in Adobe InDesign executable directoty don't seems to disable it in CC or CS6).
Thank you for your help and good ideas..

this is a .tif (not a "big"tiff) compressed in LZW or ZIP.

How to export file with original filename number suffix, but with more digits

Is there a way to keep the original filename number suffix, but change the formatting of the number, adding leading zeros for instance?
When I import photos from my camera I like to rename them, and give them sequential numbers, e.g. "2015-01 Hamburg 1.cr2", "2015-01 Hamburg 2.cr2", "2015-01 Hamburg 10.cr2", .. "2015-01 Hamburg 134.cr2", and so on.
Normally when I export photos I like to keep the file names exacly as I imported them (except the extension) e.g. 2015-01 Hamburg 1.jpg, "2015-01 Hamburg 2.jpg", .. "2015-01 Hamburg 10.jpg", .. "2015-01 Hamburg 134.jpg".
But sometimes I would like to export them with leading zeros, typically when adding photos to a web site or blog where there are sort mechanisms that only support simple sort algorithms based on file names, meaning the sort order of my photos with their original file names would become "2015-01 Hamburg 1.jpg, "2015-01 Hamburg 10.jpg", .. "2015-01 Hamburg 134.jpg", "2015-01 Hamburg 2.jpg".
So I would like the file names to be "2015-01 Hamburg 001.jpg", "2015-01 Hamburg 002.jpg", "2015-01 Hamburg 010.jpg", "2015-01 Hamburg 134.jpg".
By keeping the original file number suffix I can easily go back to the original file whenever I need to, and the sort order would work even with simple sorting.
The export Filename Template Editor gives quite advanced support for numbering files when exporting, see attached screenshot. There's support for exporting files with custom file names, and adding sequence, total and image number with padding (up to 9999/####). But those add new numbers, they do not consider the original filename number suffix. If I use the "Image # (001)" for instance, my example above would export as "2015-01 Hamburg 001.jpg", "2015-01 Hamburg 002.jpg", "2015-01 Hamburg 003.jpg", "2015-01 Hamburg 004.jpg", if those were the four photos I wanted to export, making it hard for me to trace them back to the original photo.
I have found no way of adding such padding on the original file number.
Does anyone know if this is possible or have suggestions for a workaround?
It shouldn't be too hard for Adobe to support this I'd imagine.
export pattern rename files file_number filename_template_editor

I do not know if you can do what you explained above, but there is a workaround to this (and a way to avoid having to do it in the future):
In the Library module, make sure your images are sorted by Capture Date (this will put them in the right order, even with suffixes like 1, 13, etc.)
Select all images, and then Rename them, using a Custom text followed by a Sequence number. The Custom text in this case should be the original name (such as, 2015-01 Hamburg, as in your example). Make sure the Sequence number is formatted with enough zeroes to include all the numbers in your images.
In the future, when you rename images during Import, make sure you select the Sequence number format that will include all the needed zeroes, so you don't have to go through this again.
