Integrating Bridge & Lightroom?

Seems like a simple matter to me and very convenient. I'll be testing this over the weekend but am hoping to hear from others and have the benefit of their insight when I do, The plan is to copy files from an SD card to my HD, into my pre-existing photography folder, use Bridge to browse and choose the images I want to keep, then cut and past the images I want to keep into a Lightroom "watched folder" for "auto import" into my LR catalog. I;m still working through several resources, including Martin Evening's book, the online "help", and online tutorials to research my ideas about such a workflow.

I agree with John.  What you describe probably works, but is not really optimal.  Better IMHO to import all into Lightroom and use Lightroom to cull.  It's simpler, and by reducing an extra stage of work removes a possible source of errors and mistakes, I find. 
I find it easier to have everything in LR from the start.  Even at the initial cull stage, it's handy to be able to go into Develop Module to see if an underexposed image can be brought up, for example, when deciding which to cull.  I shot 1500 at a wedding last weekend, and found LR worked pretty well that way. 
Actually, I don't cull much at the start; rather I star-rate in LR.  I find with weddings I get requests like: "have you got a one like 432 but including Aunty May?" only to find there is one that's perhaps not well framed that I might have culled.  Instead I cull only complete no-hopers, and keep the rest until after the final selection.  Again, that's easier if everything's in LR.

  • Bridge, Lightroom, InDesign workflow question

    Hey everyone,
    I've been using Adobe InDesign CS5 and Apple's Aperture software together (on a Mac) to do design projects over the past year and a half or so. I'd never been that interested in Adobe's other applications until recently, when I got a Creative Cloud membership, and now am reveling in the bounty of creative possibilities. Recently i've been interested in integrating Bridge into my workflow and transitioning away from Aperture to Lightroom (as i imagine many other people are considering/in the process of doing right now). I've been taking some video tutorials on Lynda.com and recently came across Terry White's "Bridge CC vs. Lightroom" youtube screencast (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vd8XLYG8A0s#t=20). While I really appreciated Terry's perspectives and find them helpful, I think he polarized the "Design" (Bridge) and "Photography" (Lightroom) paradigms that he used to distinguish the programs: Bridge is a file browser for working numerous file types across creative cloud applications, whereas Lightroom is a tool for photographers to do powerful non-destructive edits.
    Part of what I've liked about using Aperture with InDesign is that (however buggy this feature is) I can directly access my Aperture library from within the OS X open dialog box, thus allowing me to use files that i've edited and keeping all my work in one library. However, from what i've learned so far, and what Terry's video didn't (directly) address is what are some good practices for using edited photographs within an application such as InDesign. It seemed in the video he simply exported image files from Lightroom into folders, and then I suppose you could use mini-bridge to browse that folder. But i'm wondering if there isn't a better or simpler way to do this, and I'm wondering if i could solicit opinions from folks as to how they work between Everything i've tried to do in my workflow is minimize steps and keep track of the proliferation of images i work with. As much as I see that Lightroom is a better maintained tool than Aperture, it sure is nice to be able to directly access those image files from within InDesign…
    Very new to all of this. Thanks in advance for everyone's help.

  • Tired of color desat when opening in Bridge/Lightroom. HELP!

    I am going insane in my attempt to keep consistent color management through all areas. Everything was fine, color was great, prints were matched to calbration, monitor calibrated, and then....I rebooted the computer since I hadn't done so for a week, and when I restarted Bridge, and Lightroom (yields same results), the color immediately drains from the photos. Similar to the screenshot, however when I initially created this screenshot, Bridge was still accepting the color. Now, the desaturation exists in all Adobe programs. (PS CS5, camera raw, bridge , lightroom 3.  I feel like I'm going in circles here. I have no clue what could have changed with the reboot. One thing I have noticed is that in Window before a photo image is generated in a folder is shows as a paint pallette. And, when asked in Windows Color Management of the program I would like to use to install a profile, I am give Microsoft Color Management System (which to my understanding is designed for Vista or XP). Tried to delete the program but was denied. Not sure if that has anything to do with it either.
    If you have any insight and can help me stop the madness I would be so greatly appreciative!!
    Thanks!

    Hi Connie,
    Let me resume:
    Non  colormanaged applications (like windows explorer) shows your images  right, managed apps like LR and Bridge, which have different  cache folders, shows them desaturated, even the previewed NEF.
    Putting this  together, it can't a problem with the cache, harddisk, CF card. I mean, a  cache is a cache, and might needed to be updated from time to time, f.e.  when changing the monitor- or image profile. But I expect you always have done this.
    That's it - most of the rest (the tests done) provides unreliable information, sorry. I'm aware that to most of them you were forced by others, so don't take my following statements to personal.
    Nevertheless I believe what we see partitial is right: some of your images  are untagged (at least the PSD we see in one of the screenshots in here)
    Untagged images should look the same  in IE and Firefox unless you set Gfx.color management.mode to 1 and assign the monitor profile to FF. Per default CM in FF is enabled for tagged images only and by this acts like IE <V9 on untagged images
    Untagged sRGB should look oversaturated on wide-gamut monitors and browsers on which you can't apply a profile. Believe that is what you get.
    You asked me
    I'm confused which photos you viewed of mine that you found to be untagged?
    all the images you presented in threads in here are untagged ;-)
    Some might think different about that, but IMHO images always should have an embedded profile, even sRGB JPEGs used for web. You already get some hints on that in the other thread and the links to Ballard - even when his webdesign is a bit odd, its worth reading.
    I believe your issue is a combination of untagged images, a faulty monitor profile and maybe false handling.
    As implied above, personaly I can't trust any of the tests here, because they are (including the browser test I mentioned) not consistant done - I will tell you why.
    What you see next are three of the images you provided here, but stacked:
    #1 (RGB/8*)*
    here the second * indicates, that the image was altered (either bei assigning a colorspace or bei normal editing) after it was loaded and in a colorspace which is different from Photoshops working colorspace, which is indicated by the first *
    #2 (RGB/8*)
    indicates images colorspace is different from Photoshops working colorspace - that's fine when the working space is aRGB and the image f.e. sRGB
    #3 (RGB/8)
    no *, no # in here indicates it is in Photoshops working colorspace.
    (RGB/8#) at the top would mean it is untagged, but when when colormanagement was OFF in that moment, it also would read as (RGB/8) or (RGB/16) (without an # or *) at the top, but "untagged" in the info panel at the bottom, even when the image has an embedded profile...
    On the otherhand - and this is the important part - the Photoshop (import) settings you provided here, tells that your PS is at "preserve embedded profiles" BUT "ask when opening" at profile mismatches. By this you will be asked whenever an image profile mismatches the working colorspace.
    The latter should be unchecked, anyway.
    So what have you been doing, when you were asked for image #1 and #2? With this settings and since their colorprofiles are different from PS working space, you must have been asked and have assigned a profile different from working space or you haven't been asked (because images colorspace and the working space was the same) and you assigned a different profile initially later.
    Or you have changed settings again and again when taking those screenshots....
    When you say you see images as untagged in Bridge but in Photoshops info panel as "Adobe RGB (1998)" this can be, when a profile was added (assigned) after the image was imported to PS. Bridge will not know about that until you save the image.
    Will say: those of us trying to help, never know exactly what they are here looking at (maybe without realizing)
    Do we see a sRGB under an aRGB working space (RGB/8*) for #2? And #3, is this an aRGB image under an aRGB working space or a sRGB image under sRGB, (both would appear as RGB/8)? Or was the image untagged and colormanagement was off?
    Seems a bit chaotic, sorry.
    At least this is nothing on which I'ld be able to tell for sure what is going on.
    Next: the monitor  profile you sent to me, turns my U2410 dark and too much purple/reddish.
    Of  course there should be a differences (different monitor, different  environment light and my old eyes), but this is far to much - it hurt my eyes
    As  far I know, LR internal uses the Melissa color space (which is larger  than aRGB)  - I wonder what happens when RAW were processed via Meliassa  to aRGB with a too reddish monitor profile and are saved as untagged  aRGB....?
    I also wonder how LR can be configured to export to PSD without  they being tagged...?   Nevertheless, I was able to reproduce this once. For one of my PSDs the profile was removed, but at the moment I don't know how to reproduce that again.
    As said just make sure you images are tagged. But don't just apply a profile to those images already processed, when you don't know what really happend to them - it might get worse.
    Anyway.
    To solve your prob, you should forget about LR for  now and remove the monitor profile made with the Spyder, set the DELL  profile which comes with the CD and process images from scratch.
    Means  straight from NEF in one colorspace only -> via Photoshops ACR (output as aRGB and make sure aRGB is your  working space in PS), save them as PSD or TIFF and make sure they get tagged as aRGB. See if it makes a difference (color shift or not), when viewed  in Bridge.
    If there is no shift, start over with calibrating your monitor. Calibrating means setting the hardware right, by making sure the monitor was set to aRGB and brightness and contrast was adjusted, before you profilling it with the Spyder.
    If the problem still exists with this new profile and with images, which were processed by the above workflow and by the new conditions (make sure of that, the already processed images might be messed up) again let some one with an U2410 check the new profile.
    If its still have a huge red shift on another U2410, it might point to a hardware fault (either Monitor or Spyder)
    @MJOrts
    I notice that "Use Windows display calibration" is checked on in your
    screenshot. 
    AFAIK this setting means, that Windows is loading the LUT and not a third-party LUT-Loader, coming with the profiling device.

  • Raw File from Bridge, Lightroom, CS5 not show on Window 8.1 OS

    I recently bought a new computer with Window-8.1 OS.  Then I loaded CS5, Bridge & Lightroom on. 
    However, non of the program reads raw file.  Please advise what to do.  Thank you.
    James

    If photoshop, bridge or lightroom are old enough, it may not support your camera. A search on adobe's web site will give you a list a supported cameras for that version of software.
    If they are not supported, you have basically 2 options
    1)Upgrade your software
    2)download the free dng converter and convert your raw files to dng which can be opened by photoshop, camera raw, or lightroom.
    Another possiblity is the file it self is corrupted. Hopefully that is not the case.

  • Keywords in Bridge & Lightroom

    Does anyone know if there is a limit on the number of keywords that can be used in Bridge/Lightroom?   Bridge seems to just keeps adding the keywords and keeps all of them together, whereas Lightroom only has the keywords associated with a catalogue.
    I have a feeling I might be approaching a maximum and this is causing my problems with the corrupt files in the Cache.
    It may also be I had let the Cache become too large.
    Thanks

    Bridge seems to just keeps adding the keywords and keeps all of them together, whereas Lightroom only has the keywords associated with a catalogue.
    Keywords created in Bridge are stored in an xml file (on my Mac the path is: user/ library/ application support/ Adobe/ Bridge CS6 / Adobe Bridge Keywords.xml
    But you can also use the tiny menu icon top right of metadata panel to use the option to export as a text file for back up purpose (and import also).
    Can't imagine that there is a limit on the amount of keywords other then the storage space on your computer. but having said that, you already would have an endless list to exceed the space of an ancient floppy disk
    Don't know how LR handles these list but can't image they store it in the cache.
    Bridge Cache contains only the cache for thumbnails in different sizes, I dump this on a somewhat regular base if it has grown to large.
    Applied keywords are stored in the files itself (including a DNG file) or in case of Raw (and having set the option to save metadata in an xmp side car file) in this side car file.
    The central database is not the same as the central cache so dumping cache only needs an action to recache the thumbnails.

  • I have dell xps it runs at 3840 x 2167 and bridge lightroom and photoshop are unusable as the type is so small if win is re scaled to a low res the products still use full res and you canot see text can you help!

    I am about to buy the above products for home and a laptop I bought the high res laptop for editing photos and the photos look great on the display but I cannot use photo shop and lightroom
    has any body had this problem and is there a simple fix that I have missed
    taking the res down in the control panel reduces the res but does not effect the programme
    by the way the dell xps is great
    dave

    Thanks for the info I know that there were problems with the high res
    I am using the latest photoshop and bridge from the cloud but only using the trial copy at the
    moment  
    I will look closer and try to scale it to a suitable level

    There is that pitfall in buying HiDpi laptops for Windows.
    Only Photoshop CC 2014 has the option to scale the UI 200% in order to make it usable on these hires screens.
    CC and earlier does not have this and Adobe would have to retrofit them. Not likely with older products.

  • Organizing Images (Bridge, Lightroom, etc.)

    I want to organized all the images on my website. I'll probably have a zillion questions, but I'd like to start out with a brief overview, just to see if I can get some general tips and guidance.
    First, imagine a website with all its images in a folder named images. Some of these images were downloaded from the Internet or scanned into my computer, while I made other images with Photoshop.
    The first thing I want to do is somehow organize my images, preferably giving each image meta data (e.g. key words). In fact, I've already learned how to do this with Apple's Aperture program, though I'm not entirely happy with the results. So I'd like to try Adobe's equivalent, though I'm not even sure if that's Bridge or Lightroom.
    Another problem with Aperture is that it creates a separate image library that just takes up more disk space. If possible, I'd like to find a program that doesn't store images so much as store or remember their locations. Think of it as taking a snapshot of the folder MySite/images.
    It would be extremely helpful if this program could then keep track of any changes I make with my images. For example, imagine an image named alaska-tree.jpg, identified by the key words "Alaska" and "tree." If I rename the image to aktree.jpg and move it into a different folder, I'd like it to retain its metadata and any other thing associated with it. Can this be done with Bridge and/or Lightroom?
    Another thing that would be helpful is the ability to link images to parent Photoshop files. For example, let's say I create a Photoshop file named Evolution.ps. I then use it to create to web images, az-evo.jpg and wy-evo.png. I'd like each of those images to somehow "remember" that it was created from Evolution.ps. And if I decided to move Evolution.ps into another folder, it would helpful if its child images would somehow know which folder it was moved into.
    I'm just learning how to work with Apple's "smart folders," which will probably be a big help, though I don't think they'll match images with Photoshop files or keep track of name or location changes.
    Anyway, do you know if I can do any or all of the above with Bridges, Lightroom or some other program? Thanks.

    Your questions are not directly related to using Dreamweaver.  You'll get much better answers to this in Bridge & Photoshop Lightroom forums.

  • Only one DB for Bridge & Lightroom

    I would love to see ONE single database for bridge & lightroom. So whatever you change in LR is seen in bridge CS3 and vice versa. This would save time and diskspace. I am a semi pro and have about 10.000 pics in my archive
    Cheers
    Stephan from Germany

    Yeah...all programs use one, of one sort or another, including RSP. But Bridge isn't database *centric* (at least by my definition), but rather the DB is used behind the scenes for the application to keep track of things, caching, etc. On the other hand, LR is DB centric since you actively see and manage the database through the user interface.

  • Lua soap integration in lightroom

    HI ,
    I AM USING LUA SOAP AND LUA SOCKET TO CALL THE  WEB SERVICE. IT IS WORKING FINE WHEN I TRIED TO CALL THE WEBSERVICE WITHOUT INTEGRATING WITH LIGHTROOM PLUGIN.
    WHEN I TRIED TO INTEGRATE THE PLUGIN WITH THE LIGHTROOM IT SI UNABEL TO LOAD THE LUA SOCKET FILES.
    PLEASE TELL HOW TO INTEGRATE THE SOAP FILES WITH LIGHT ROOM.
    THE FOLLOWIN GERROR I AM GETTING WHILE INTEGRATING WITH LIGHTROOM.
    An error occurred while attempting to run one of the plug-in’s scripts.
    error loading module 'ssl.core' from file '/opt/local/lib/lua/5.1/ssl.so':
    dynamic libraries not enabled; check your Lua installation

    error loading module 'ssl.core' from file '/opt/local/lib/lua/5.1/ssl.so':

    Please tell me the solution asap

    Hi,
    I'm pretty sure the functionality you are trying to access is disabled.  The LR SDK limits the LUA standard capabilities available to the developer and I'd be extremely surprised if they allowed us to load object files.  If it was an option I'm sure Jeffrey Friedl wouldn't have had to take such a torturous path to get SHA1 digests working.
    So I think your best option is to ask for SOAP support to be integrated into Lightroom because that publicly available module will not work within the environment provided by the SDK.
    Thanks,
    Matt

  • Bridge / Lightroom and Premier Elements

    Am I missing something obvious? I am new to using Premier Elements, but use Lightroom, Phototoshop. In Design every day. So I use LR to manage my photographic files and Bridge for everything else.
    I capture video on my camera in AVCHD, so Lightroom can't import or manage the files, despite the claims that it now supports video. Bridge doesn't seem to know of Premier Elements existence and instead I am expected to use yet another browser designed to work with PS Elements. Is their a work around for this, can Bridge be made to work with Premier Elements so I don't have to waste my time learning an entirely new management system. Seems a bit barmy to me that Bridge can't work with an Adobe product.

    I know of no way to get Bridge to see and interface with PrElements. I use Bridge for most of my organizing, as I also use InDesign, PS, AI and PrPro. If I am using PrE, I just do a Get Media, though those might have been "organized" in Bridge.
    Good luck,

  • Bridge/Lightroom Galleries in DW? [subject edited by moderator]

    I own DreamWeaver CS5 and I subscribe to Bridge CC and Lightroom 5. I have created photo galleries in both Bridge and Lightroom and want to embed the galleries into a DreamWeaver page. But neither program loads in my dreamweaver page. Anyone know why?

    Bridge generates Flash slideshows which won't load until you preview them in a supporting browser with appropriate Flash player plugins.  And since Flash is a dead web technology (most mobile and tablet devices don't support it), you will be alienating a lot of your web audience who can't view Flash.  For these and other reasons, jQuery and HTML5 galleries are a much better choice on the web.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS6/ Bridge & Lightroom Keyboard Shortcuts

    I would be grateful if someone could direct me to a pdf list showing keyboard shortcuts for Photoshop CS6, Lightroom and Bridge.
    Thanks

    For a reference to Adobe Photoshop's keyboard shortcuts, take a look at the new Photoshop CS6 Quick Reference Guide. It is in its beta form, but it is a great way to find shortcuts, as well as find a menu location that might have changed from CS5. We are looking for your feedback, which you can contribute on the site as well.

  • How to import ratings/metadata from previous programs (Bridge, Lightroom)

    With the new release of Aperture 3, I am considering make the switch from Lightroom. That being said, I have imported a few folders as tests and cannot figure out how to get Aperture to recognize star ratings that I have applied in Bridge (raw and jpg). Keywords and colors are also no shows. I feel like this shouldn't be a hard thing for a 3rd version of a professional program to do, especially if they are looking to attract new users, but am I missing something here? Thanks in advance.

    You need to "save" everything from Lightroom to XMP sidecar files, and then Aperture should just import the files with keywords intact.
    No adjustments, star ratings, or labels will transfer over. But otherwise it's not too difficult.. just ensure you've saved the data to the XMP sidecar files (command-S) or are storing the info in DNG files if you're using those.

  • What good is video integration if Lightroom can't share with ANY other apps ???

    Perhaps I am missing the VERY obvios, however it seems to me as if LR4's video integration is missing just about anything there is to miss.
    Really crazy to think that those apps are coming from the same house ;-)
    1) There is NO possibility to export to non-compressed media an include the Metadata CAREFULLY set in Lightroom. DPX does NOT get the LR4 Metadata written to them.
    2) Exporting an H264 to H264 directly without intermediating will downgrade the quality so severly that one does NOT want to look at that video anymore.
    3) Adobe has a wonderful way of sharing Metadata between its professional apps, so if one applies metadate inside of i..e Bride, Premiere Pro will be able to read them and vice versa.
    ALL metadata applied inside of LR4 - STAY in lightroom 4. No other adobe app will be able to see those metadata. This is beyond crazy to me. And I have a HARD time understanding
    why adobe implemented all those features of video if they are absoluty NO USE to anyone. Unless of course one would want to watch all his videos in Lightroom UNCUT.
    But since the adobe lightroom crew has not yet figured out the obvious and included Lightroom in Apple's FronRow - I dont see that happen, at least for Mac users which are VERY acustomed
    to a certain luxury that ANY OS should feature!
    Perhaps adobe just wanted to pad them selves on the shoulders with Video capabilities which ARE GREAT when it comes to applying metadata, setting in and outpoints etc etc etc.
    But if NO EXPORT (besides DPX which is NOT metadata capble) not severly degrading is possible why on earth did they implement it...
    If this wasnt so darn tragic I would be laughing but I would LOVE to actually be able to use Lightroom to handle my rushes (footage) and be able to apply metadata in LR4 and then just import into Premiere.
    Perhaps this just the first beta's shortcomings. I really hope so.
    If I am missing the very obvious and doing something wrong, please enlighten my poor soul ;-)

    So adobe sets up ONE forum to officially discuss LR4....
    Then I enter the discussion and you tell me to put it up somewhere else...
    Nice
    Just as confusing as having to enter develop mode to access the white balance eye dropper....
    This whole thing is getting too confusing for me...
    NOevertheless I added my gripes over there....  And now I am only waiting to be told that I should post it somewhere else....
    If adobes software wasn't the currently best, I sure would jump ship and that immediately !

  • What looks good in Bridge, Lightroom & Safari, looks too light in CS4

    When I get things just the way I want them in Lightroom, and export them, when I open them up in Photoshop CS4, they look way too light and even undersaturated. The same image looks the same in Safari, LIghtroom and Bridge, but not CS4.   CS4 is set to sRGB and all the images are sRGB images. 
    Question: why? And what do I need to do so that images look the same in all applications?
    I am on a 27" iMac running all the latest software.  I have calibrated my monitor and it is set at about 140 cdm2

    try exporting from lightroom with AdobeRGB (1998) color space and in photoshop at color settings / working space / rgb choose also AdobeRGB (1998).
