Woo Hoo! This did it! I can export originals including layered files to hard drive and it doesn't include the "Preserved File Name!" Thank so much to all who pointed me to this plug-in!
Thanks - I'll look closer at this. I use Jeffrey Friedl's Export to Zenfolio, so I'm sure this is a good plug-in. I don't notice anything about the "Preserve File Name, but I'll look into it.
This was a response to @clee01l (the quote feature didn't work.)
"Why is this even important? IMG_1234.JPG is not a very descriptive name or even unique."
A lot of my graphics are scanned images. The file names are often just date-sequence-quick name, but I will often put descriptors about...
I am a professional digital graphics creator. I rename my graphics in Lightroom before publishing them in collections and I DO NOT wish for the Preserved File Name to be in my final files I sell to customers! I didn't notice that this is a (relatively) new feature in Lightroom until today. I...
Thank you all so much for your input!! It turned out to be a preset that I usually apply to everything I import that has my contact and copyright info. It didn't occur to me to turn off my metadata preset for re-importing files. Also I never thought of using a folder that I keep files that I...
Hi all, I'm running into a problem. I wasn't sure if I should post here or in Workflow, but as it deals mainly with export - I'll post here.
I have vintage image scan Photoshop documents that I have keyworded in Lightroom. I need to export these to my assistant to retouch in Photoshop and then...
Oh, thank you so much LouieSherwin! Those are very helpful suggestions and I'm going to carefully read the Workflow Smart Collections link. I use some of Jeffrey Friedl's plug-ins, but didn't know about that one. It might get a bit cumbersome creating so many collections - I'll have to think...
I could really use some help using LR to organize my production of scanned images.
My Current Situation:
I scan a high volume of vintage images that I need to send via Dropbox to my assistants to retouch. Right now, I have folders on my hard drive, folders on Dropbox, and then I have files in...
OK, so I'm back - EVERY time I open a file in Photoshop CS5 through Lightroom 3 when I close it and go back to Lightroom I have that alert on the file. Never happened in LR2. It's very annoying!
Thank you for this answer. That will be very helpful
Photoshop doesn't "destroy" the original. Yes, you have to open the image as a psd or tiff file. Using layers, you can edit to your heart's content.
I generally prefer working in Photoshop. I'm not just doing a bit of burning and dodging and...
A little program called Adobe Photoshop. It's kind of popular. ;-)
This is what I need to do. I have a large number of images that will need retouching - spotting, backgrounds masked, etc. I'm going to be getting freelance assistance for that work. I have everything key-worded, etc. so it would...
Hello,
I need to send a batch of images to my assistant for editing. I will then want to re-import and replace the edited files. Is this possible? Thank you
Lightroom 3.
Aside from opening in Photoshop - no, I haven't. I did at one point add some file info information in Photoshop to a few images before I realized I could do it in Lightroom - but this is happening on recently imported photos as well, so I'm quite sure that isn't the problem. It's even happening...
