Export photos using presets

Select the photos you want to export and then choose File
> Export With Preset or click the Export button.
2
Choose a preset from the list on the left side of the Export dialog box. Lightroom offers the following built-in export
presets:
Burn Full-Sized JPEGs
Exports photos as JPEGs converted to and tagged as sRGB with maximum quality, no scaling,
and a resolution of 240 pixels per inch. By default, this preset places the exported file in a destination subfolder named
Lightroom Burned Exports. This preset also chooses the Files On CD/DVD destination at the top of the Export dialog
box. (Not available on 64-bit Windows.)
Export To DNG
Exports photos in DNG file format to a destination subfolder named Exported DNG FIles. By default,
this preset uses the photo’s original filename for the DNG file, and it specifies no postprocessing action.
For E-mail
Exports photos as JPEGs converted to and tagged as sRGB. Exported photos have a maximum size of 640
pixels (width or height), medium quality, and a resolution of 72 pixels per inch. By default, this preset places the
exported file in a destination subfolder named To E-mail, and it specifies the postprocessing action Show In Explorer
(Windows) or Show In Finder (Mac
OS).
Note:
You can also choose File > Export With Preset, and then choose the preset you want.
Export plug-ins
Lightroom supports plug-ins from third parties that add functionality to the Export dialog box. Plug-ins are available,
for example, to enable you to upload exported photos directly to photo-sharing websites such as Facebook or Flickr.
Depending on what third-party plug-ins you have installed, different options may be available in the Export dialog
box. Check with the plug-in developer for support or documentation for their software.
Plug-ins located in the following folders are automatically loaded by Lightroom and can be enabled and disabled by
the Plug-In Manager, but not removed:
•
