Lightroom is a photo editing and management software developed by Adobe Systems. It allows photographers to import, organize, and edit their photos using a variety of tools and features, and provides options for sharing and showcasing photos.
Here are the steps to export images in Lightroom:
- Open Lightroom and select the image you want to export for print.
- Press “D” on your keyboard to enter the Develop module.
- Adjust the image as necessary using the various tools and sliders available in the module.
- Once you have made your adjustments, go to “File” in the top menu bar and select “Export.”
- In the Export dialog box, select the folder where you want to save your file and name your file.
- Under the “File Settings” section, select the file format that is appropriate for printing. For example, if you want to print your artwork at a professional printing service, you may want to save it as a high-quality TIFF file. Alternatively, you can save it as a JPEG or PNG file if you plan to print it at home.
- Under the “Color Space” section within the “File Settings” section, select “AdobeRGB (1998)” to set the color space to AdobeRGB 1998, which is a commonly used color space for print.
- Under the “Output Sharpening” section, select “None”.
- Click on the “Export” button to export the file to the chosen location.
That’s it! Your artwork should now be saved and ready for printing, with the appropriate file format, color space, and output sharpening settings for optimal print quality. Note that you should still consult with your printer or printing service for guidance on which ICC profile to use for the best results.
