Lightroom 3  Exporting

I have Lightroom 3 and untill this last week it has been working fine. But now the Export function has completly stopped. The import work ok, and I start the Export function go through the menue options and it appears to start but gains no progress. After a long time windows notifies me that lightroom has stopped operating correctly and closes the program. Is there a fix for this or does anyone know what to do?

No sharpening at all during my export, Ian. Sometimes I sharpen for screen at a standard strength, but I turned it off when I started seeing the extra artifacts but the results of the exports remains basically the same with or without sharpening.
However when I import it seems my photos already have some sharpening on them in the develop module. The settings there are sharpening = 25, radius = 1, Detail = 25, masking = 0. I honestly rarely mess with the sharpening, so I guess I skipped over those settings during the countless hours I have worked with LR! But I assume those are normal post import numbers, correct? I never apply development settings during import, that's why I say that. Thanks for keeping up the conversation and brainstorming Ian! Anyone else also free to chime in.

    I dont understand anything you said in your post.
    Do you have a specific question about video production?
    The forums are for individual technical or creative issues that users have with video production. I am sur someone will be able to help you, but and to get a response it is best to ask a specific question.
    Is this about a technical problem you have or something about setting up a web site? If its the latter this is the wrong forum.

  • Lightroom 5 exporting wrong file sizes?

    I am having trouble with Lightroom 5 exporting images at incorrect file sizes. For example, if I use my export preset for images with long edge 2500 pixels and maximum size 1000k it is exporting images at 1500-2500k. 
    Is anyone else experiencing this? I am wondering if it is a bug.
    Thanks

    I never had a problem with it in LR4. The example I gave was one of many options I tried. At the other end I asked it to produce smaller files (eg 1500pixels long edge) with a 1000k maximum and I could only get them to output at around 160k.
    I have since realised that I neglected to mention that I was using LR/Mogrify2 plug in to add a text graphic to the images. I experimented with turning that option off and I was able to produce a 2500px long edge file at 996k. As soon as I turn that option on again the file ouptuts at 1600k (where I have specified at 1000k limit).
    This was never a problem with LR4 so there is a conflict or a bug somewhere.
    Is anyone else using a LR / Mogrify 2 plug in and experiencing unpredictable results? I have the option to use LR / Mogrify 2's version of ImageMagick checked.
    Message was edited by: Shipp
    So I just did further testing. It seems that LR5 cannot control the maximum file size when working with Lr / Mogrify 2. If I ask the plug in to resize the image and control the maximum file size I can produce a file with long edge 2500pix, 1000k maximum size and the text graphic with no problem at all, as I used to be able to do with LR4. I will contact the plug in developer and see if they are aware of this.

  • I use Adobe lightroom to export images to Facebook - I am now getting error message related to this process address not understood- how to correct?

    I am using Win & Home edition / Mozilla Firefox on my HP laptop. On Oct 8 I used Lightroom to export images to Facebook. Now when I try to repeat this, authentication fails as The address wasn't understood
    Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (lightroom) isn't associated with any program or is not allowed in this context.
    The export process was working, but isn't now. I have ben having problems with Firefox - I wasn't able to retain the settings for opening with my own Homepage (kept going back to Firefox default. So I have done a reset. Seems that this has somehow disrupted the authentication process. Can you help please.

    I just dropped into the forums to see if other people were getting the DVD burning verification error (Error code 0x80020063). I've been holding off on the Tiger to Leopard upgrade until very recently. All of my must-have apps were anecdotally stable and I was under the impression that 10.5 was too. Apparently reliable DVD burning is Tiger only, at least on my systems.
    We've been burning Taiyo Yuden DVD's almost daily with Tiger with incredibly low failure rates. After what seemed to be a smooth upgrade of a Mac Pro tower & 2 MacBook Pro laptops (one is a Core Duo and the other is a Core 2 Duo) I've spent the entire afternoon troubleshooting until I ended up here. Some searching on the board leads me to conclude that this will be a bigger headache than I imagined.
    I've done all the obvious stuff (varied the burn speed, moved the files to a different drive, reset PRAM & SMC, used a different account, deleted finder.plist, tried repairing the system with DU on the Leopard install disc and then I tried burning on different computers with different media). What I'm finding is that over 50% of my DVD's are throwing the error code during verification across 3 different models all running Leopard 10.5.2. CD burning seems to work as before (but we don't use this as much so ?). I saw that some people had posted that closing the finder window helped, but that didn't improve my overall failure rate. The DVD's appear (indentical byte size and item numbers) to be burned correctly and usable, but I need to be sure so I can't trust them.
    We need reliable DVD burning for our business and this is a real problem. I was going to trudge over to the Apple store, but it doesn't sound like there's a real fix yet.

  • Modify Lightroom 3 export process

    I want to modify the standard Lightroom 3 export process - I want exported images to be placed in folders named from the collections that are being exported.
    Can I do this without writing a complete plugin - which would be hard work and error prone? Ideally I'd like to add an option  to the 'File Naming -> custom ' section of the export dialog.

    In the end, what I wanted to do couldn't be done in Lightroom. Here's the hoop I had to jump through to do what I needed to do.
    Lightroom doens't allow the use of a collection name in a custom filename in the export process, but it does allow lots of other attributes. I pulled down the SQLite interface library source code and constructed a dll that would work with Microsoft Visual Studio 10, and then built myself a C++ program that walked a Lightroom collection tree (well, one level of it) in the Lightroom SQLite database, and set the "Headline" field to be the same as the collection name. I chose this field because I don't use it for anything else. I can now incorporate this field into a custom filename and it all comes out lovely.
    It really didn't need to be so hard. Couldn't Adobe make their export processes just a little more open? This process is completely buried in compiled code; it's their way or the highway.

  • Lightroom JPEG export VS Photoshop Image Processor

    Hey guys:
    Long time photoshop and lightroom user (long time user of all things Adobe). First post here in the forums. I did a search for my question but I think it was too specific, so it returned zero results.
    My question is about Lightroom's JPEG export vs Photoshops Image Processor. When I export a RAW file to JPEG from Lightroom, the file size is freaking huge. The JPEG is as big as my original RAW file (~25mb). Settings are set to default - 100 quality. Everything else remains untouched.
    However, when I use Photoshop's image processor (I launch it through Bridge, easier that way for me) and process the RAW images that way, my JPEGs are roughly 5-10mb in size. Settings in Image Processor are quality 10 and thats it. No actions being run or anything.
    Can anyone shed some light as to why Lightroom exports JPEGs that are roughly 2-4 times the size of Photoshop's JPEGs? My initial thoughts are that the 100 quality setting in Lightroom is more like Photoshop's quality 12 (that always makes me think of Spinal Tap - "Why don't you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder?" "These go to eleven.") Ideally, exporting out of Lightroom would be much easier for my workflow.
    Thanks in advance.

    You are correct: LR Quality 100 = PS Quality 12
    Despite LR having 101 Quality settings (0 to 100) it actually only has 12 Quality settings the same as PS 'Baseline Standard':

  • Lightroom 5 Exporting and Plugin Issues

    Hello Everyone ! I would like to express my gratitude in advance for any advise or solutions the adobe community might provide me with these issues.
    I've been using Lightroom 4.3 for the last year with no issues. I decided it was time to try out Lightroom 5 and it's new features. So I installed a trial of 5.6 via creative cloud .  When I launched 5.6 it required me to update my catalog, which I did and didn't encounter any problems with the update.  The first problem I encountered occurred when I attempted to export an edited raw file. The export  progress bar stays at zero and never completes the export process, if it helps anyone , the files I am exporting to JPEG are Raw Nikon D600 files. If I attempt to do anything else while Lightroom is stuck in the export process , the program will become unresponsive and  I'm not even able to kill the process via windows task manager. My second problem is the Plugin manager , on Lightroom 4.3 I use the Smugmug upload plugin . On 5.6 the plugin manager crashes every time I attempt to setup the Smugmug plugin. I've tried other third party plugins and those cause Lightroom to crash as well so I don't believe it's just the Smugmug plugin. I've tried every possible solution I was able to find doing web searches but nothing has worked so far...
    The following is a list of steps I took to try to resolve the issues.
    -In the export screen I made sure that "Do nothing" was swtiched to "go to explorer" in post processing
    - uninstalled all plugins
    - Unistalled and reinstalled Lightroom 5.6
    -Uninstalled Lightroom  4.3 (perhaps a conflict ?)
    -Created a new catalog and imported new files to that catalog
    -disabled firewall and antivirus
    - Tried various JPEG re-sized dimensions
    - Tried to export to various Drives ( local, and external drives)
    -Ran Lightroom 5.6 as an administrator
    -Deleted Preference File
    Hopefully everyone can see I've tried my best to find a solution but to no avail , it's quite frustrating since I really want to upgrade to 5.6 .  I hope someone can provide a solution or point me in the right direction ! Sorry if this post is too long!

  • Droplet not working correctly in Lightroom 4 Export

    Having finally found time to understand how droplets created in Photoshop work I realised I could save a huge amount of time by integrating droplets into my workflow through the Lightroom export dialogue.
    I will not regail you with the hassle I had with CS6 creating droplets to start with. My question here is how to get LR4 to export and run the droplet correctly. My export preset is set up to do the following.
    Export the selected file (RAW files chosen in my instance) to a subfolder named Processed.
    Save those exported files as PSD at full resolution and with -processed added at the end of the file
    Run a droplet that I created and placed in the export actions folder on the newly created files.
    Import the resultant files back into lightroom
    Using some test images I was able to watch as the images were exported and photoshop CS6 ran the action on the files and closed them off. When I checked the images in lightroom however there was no sign of the action having run! I opened the files up in Photoshop to confirm this (The action should have created a number of layers)
    I wasted the best part of a morning trying various droplets and droplet settings to no avail. It was only when i went into Bridge, to test the droplet from there, that I suddenly discovered what had happened. The droplet had run and the revised file had been created. Unfortunatley instead of saving the revised PSD file over the original in the subfolder it had in fact saved it back with the RAW files in the original root folder. Of course there was no way of realising this in lightroom unless I decided to sync that folder, which I had no cause to do.
    I have gone over the setting in Lightroom and I'm convinced it should do what I am expecting. All the books state that Post processing is carried out after the files have been created so should be carried out on the files in their new location. It apears however that LR4 is carrying out this process DURING export so causing the droplet to save into the original folder location. Not what I want and totally useless to me.
    In terms of the droplet and action. The droplet was set to save and close. I did originally have a save command in the action, as instructed in tutorials, but removed it to see if that was causing the problem. Neither option made any difference to the problem.
    To me it does seem there is a bug in Lightroom 4 but i have not found anyone else reporting this problem so am I missing something or not interpereting the export functions correctly?

    You cannot go back.
    Have you tried a reset, restore to address your issue?

  • Lightroom 3 Export to JPEG issue ( please help) (photo attached)

    Hello,
         I have been going crazy trying to solve this issue and can't find a solution. I am using Lightroom 3.4.1 on a Mac running 10.6.7. In Lightroom I am editing raw images from a Canon 7D. I tweak and adjust the images to my liking but when I export them as a JPEG at full quality using color space sRGB my jpegs do not look like my adjusted photos in Lightroom. The biggest missing factor is all my "detail" adjustments. Sharpening ect. The colors are slightly less vibrant but the huge issue is the sharpening I do that disappears. Can anyone help me with this? I will supply an example below. On the left is the jpeg and on the right is the grab from Lightroom. I am viewing the jpegs in preview and don't have photoshop. Thanks in advance for any help!

    When you export from Lightroom and you do not select the resize option, you will get the full resolution from your original image. This contains far more pixels than your screen can display as displays are very low resolution devices (typically only around 100 ppi). When you open the resultant jpeg in an image viewer, it will have to downscale from that. Usually many times. This necessarily introduces blur and the result will strongly depend on the chosen scaling algorithm. Lightroom uses a fairly good one to downscale and it shows you a preview of a properly output sharpened image at the size you are looking at. Preview uses a particularly bad one. In preview if you want the screen pixels to correspond to the image pixels, you need to hit apple-0 (or use the view menu and select "actual size"). In Safari and Firefox, you need to click on the image to zoom in to actual pixels.
    Your comment also makes me realize that you do not really understand the sharpening in Lightroom. The detail tools in Develop are meant to optimize what is called capture sharpening. These should NOT be used to optimize sharpness at the fit view level, but only at the 1:1 view level. They operate basically on the image to correct for image blur that comes from the sensor's antialias filter and for a small amount of lens blur (say when you are diffraction limited owing to use of large f-numbers). Do not zoom out and play with the detail setting. Zoom into 1:1 on certain areas and optimize the sharpening. There are many tutorials on the web that explain this. Then when you go to output your image, you need to apply another sharpening, called output sharpening, at the final size, in order to correct for blur introduced by the output medium such as a printer or a display and by rescaling the image. The print panel has this built in. In the export panel, the options are in the lower tabs. You need to rescale the image to your final size (for example, a 533x800 pixel image is typical for a good web sized image). Then also apply the correct output sharpening in the tab below it. Typical would be to sharpen for screen at a standard amount. I showed some comparisons on this around the LR 2 timeframe here: http://lagemaat.blogspot.com/2008/08/on-output-sharpening.html The output sharpening has improved by quite a bit by now from those examples, but they show the general idea.
    Hope this helps.

  • Lightroom PSD export inconsistencies and other quirks...

    We are  a  professional imaging organization,  photoshop and lightroom experts (well, at least to our clients we are ..LOL)     We have been battling two very troublesome problems they seem to have been present in every version of LR3 we've used and its getting to the point where its costing us a lot of time so we'de like to address  it if we can.    I suspect its in the  code,  but perhaps its something more obvious...
    For starters, here is our workflow:   1>  Import to DNG,  2 > Adjust  3>  Export as PSD ProphotoRGB    
    We then do our creative work on the images and  use layered PSD files for our intermediate archives (DNG are the originals as shot).  We use Photoshop to size, sharpen and export to final sized JPG  for agency submission.  
    That said,
    Problem #1>    When we  open the PSD files in photoshop (after exporting from LR3)   they are ALWAYS  dimmer, in fact,  we have to go into levels on each and every image and bring the far right slider over to where the  histogram curve starts so that we can recover the luminance.  In other words, if you are looking at the levels histogram in Photoshop,  there is a flat spot on the right hand side.  We end up moving the slider over to pick up the low edge of the "bell curve".      In some cases, this flat spot is severe.       NOT GOOD, we lose shadow detail doing this and quite honestly its  real PITA in terms of time wasted.   
    We notice in general, that even within the same color space, images do not look the same in Photoshop as they did in Lightroom.    That is an issue, they should at least look very close.  
    Problem #2>   When applying an Auto Tone (in develop)  to an image initially  we understand what its doing - setting white and black points -   but in just about  every case,  it applies WAY TOO MUCH contrast.   Again, we always have to slide the contrast slider over  to bring it within our tastes.    We wrote a preset to zero the contrast  but we should not have to do that ?   Is there a way of shutting the contrast off in Auto Tone ?    Its very annoying...
    So anyway, we love LR3, but those two issues are severely limiting our workflow...     any ideas, hints or other suggestions ??
    Thanks,
    Mark

    We notice in general, that even within the same color space, images do not look the same in Photoshop as they did in Lightroom. That is an issue, they should at least look very close.
    I agree with Jeff. Other forum members who have posted with this issue have had a corrupt or incompatible monitor profile. Issues that can cause this are hard drive file corruption, defective calibration puck device, and using monitor calibration software that creates ICC v4 monitor profiles. LR has issues using ICC v4 profiles and it is suggested to always use ICC v2.

  • Lightroom 4 Export sizes not accurate? Print Space website london

    Hi Guys,
    I'm currently exporting my images from lightroom 4 to get them printed at the print space in London
    i exported 3 files at A4 size in mm, i then uploaded them onto the print spaces website and all 3 images are very slightly off in dimensions
    i took all 3 pics with the same camera, same lens, and they are not cropped at all, all exported at 300 DPI, all exported into Jpeg, all export dims bang on
    i also exported another image which was 16"w x 22"h, again i uploaded to the website and same thing it stated the original file size was 16,9" x 23.2"
    i sent the guys a message but they only use photoshop, so not that clued up with lightroom, has anyone else experienced this problem
    when exporting an exact size and yet it comes out slightly different?
    could it be that lightroom 4's measurements are out? i find that unlikely as everyone would complain!
    i'm struggling for ideas on what else to try to solve this issue
    One thing the guy mentioned at the print space was that you can switch to custom sizes and enter what ever size you require the print to be
    but when you amend the width, it automatically changes the height... and vice versa, so you cant pick both custom H and W at the same time.
    who would have thought that printing in A4 would be so difficult !!! :-)
    Thanks for your time hopefully someone might be able to shed some light on this.
    Cheers
    Chris

    We'll need some details
    For one such photo, we need the exact pixel dimensions of the photograph (you said you didn't crop, so I want the pixel dimensions of the uncropped photo)
    We'll also need to know your exact settings in the Image Sizing dialog box (screen capture is best, but you can type these in if you need to)
    And since I'm an American and not familiar with A4, exactly what are the dimensions of an A4 piece of paper?

  • How can I get Lightroom to export my edit to a jpeg that looks the same ?

    Hi everyone,
    I can't get my jpeg export to look the same as it looks in lightroom after edit.
    The jpeg isn't that different but still, way too much for me.
    I did use sRVB, 100% no scaling etc... but it seems the export won't take "all" of my noise reduction correction..
    This is a portrait shot in lowww light, and the raw file was rather crappy. Eventhough I was really happy with my smooth final edit but I can't get my jpeg to look as clean.. please someone help meee !
    Regards,    

    What infos can I give you all to help me sort this problem out ?
    export : quality 100%
                 sRVB
                 no scaling
    In lightroom my image is just clean whereas after export, I can notice some artifacts or "moire", and it feels like the noise reduction/sharpen tool doesnt apply its correction as it should.. but it still does a bit bc it's not as if I turned it off completly...
    This is driving me crazy
    I'm about to install RC3 and try with it...

  • Lightroom CC exports Jpgs in wrong orientation ONLY when Overwriting WITHOUT WARNING

    This is the first time I post so please bare with me, I will try to explain as much as I can because it is an specific issue.
    The computer I have at work uses Windows 7 pro (Brand New Computer). I import pictures from a network drive, manipulate the pictures and then save them to the same drive. When I see the pictures in the folder browser on windows the pictures have a landscape orientation (even though they should be portraits because they are head shots). Once I import those pictures to LR they appear with the right orientation (portrait), so I play with the pictures and export them to a JPG file. The issue I'm having is when I export with the setting "Overwrite WITHOUT WARNING", I see the picture in the file explorer (Windows) and I can see all the changes I made, but with the old picture's orientation (the wrong one, Landscape) . However, If I choose to create a new file (not overwriting) it will have the orientation I viewed in LR. (The correct one, portrait).  Anyone knows how to export overwriting with the orientation I was seeing in LR?
    Thanks,
    //UPDATE: Also, I just noticed cropping is NOT working when exporting with the same setting "Overwrite WITHOUT WARNING". I had to create new files on a folder and the move and replace in Windows File Browser.

    Yes I have been trying to use my main catalogue, not the back ups - I thought the main catalogue was updated in synch with the latest back up - the reason you can fall back on a back up if all goes pear-shaped. .
    I have managed to resolve the issue as follows:
    I accessed an external hard drive (bootable back up of main computer) and the main Lightroom catalogue. Upon launching Lightroom it gave me the option to use the last saved back up Catalogue and as the default one. This workaround didn't work the same on my main computer as recent image imports and work done were missing.
    I had to delete the main catalogue on my main computer and drag the one from the external back up HD to rectify the situation.
    I have no idea why this has occurred as all I did on my main computer was delete 10 redundant back up folders after which Lightroom failed to launch citing one of the oldest back ups as missing.
    I wonder why Lightroom saved the most recent back-up (upon closing Lightroom) in a Zip folder only? - not noticed this behaviour before.

  • Lightroom 4 Export - EXIF data missing

    I noticed that the EXIF data did not seem to be included in the jpeg file resulting from EXPORT.
    I have double checked to make sure that under the METADATA section to select "ALL" and have both boxes (Remove Location Info & Write Keyword as Lightroom Hierarchy) unchecked.
    Doing the same export in Lightroom 3 has no problem to include EXIF data in the JPEG file.
    I am running the MAC version of the released Lightroom 4. Thank you in advance.

    Hi Dorin, thank you for your reply. After reading your reply, I went back and checked my jpeg files carefully. You are correct that all the EXIF metadata are there.
    My statement of 'missing' EXIF data was based on my EXIF data did not show up after I uploaded my JPG files to pBase, while all still worked well with Lightroom 3. Uploading the same set of jpeg files to other photo site like Picasa, the EXIF information is all there. Also, when I import those jpeg files in Lightroom 4, t=all the EXIF metadat are there too. It implies that it is a problem with pBase having probelm reading the EXIF of jpeg file from Lightrrom 4. Not sure what is the difference in Lightroom preparing the jpeg files, but I believe this 'missing EXIF' problem is site specific (i.e. pBase).
    I will modfify the Topis to show pBase problem only if I can. Thank you.
