I am downloading photos in RAW using Lightroom 2 and then transferring them to Photomatix 3.2 for further processing but when I try to reload these processed files into Lightroom it tells me it cannot read the file.
I can load them into photoshop CS3 but before it opens them it gives me the following message........The embedded ICC profile cannot be used because the ICC profile is invalid.
To be honest I am not sure if this is a Lightroom or Photomatix problem but would be grateful for any advice.

Since PS3 give the error about ICC profile I think you problem is different from what I thought. But I want to give you my idea anyway: try to change the filename before re-importing to LR.

I recently purchased Photomatix. I have been doing some experiments with bracketed shots. Using the plugin, I have absolutely no issues with LR reading the files after processing in Photomatix. I notice you have an earlier version of LR. Maybe, you should try to upgrade to 2.4 - maybe that will help???

Hi duncan22! Welcome to the forums!


I'd also recommend that you make sure you've downloaded the updates to Photomatix. It's now at version 3.2.1

I Have tried renaming the files but no luck. I am using the latest version of photomatix, the other odd thing not mentioned in my earlier post was that the earlier version of photomatix worked OK, it was only when I updated to the current version that I had this problem.
My next step will be to download and install again and if that does not work revert to the earlier version.
As previously mentioned I can download the finished photographs into CS3 save them and then Lightroom will accept them but it's an additional step which should be unnecessary.
Hope this post does not put anyone off photomatix as its an excellent program !

Problem sorted !
Downloaded and installed program, works fine now, can only assume some bug crept in during the previous download.
Thanks for your help
