Viewing Lightroom edited images
« on: January 24, 2009, 11:37:55 PM »
Hi after I have edited my images in Lightroom can I view images as they were edited in Lightroom in PM? if so how. My images currently display the changes as made in NX2

Just found another post which I think answers my question which is no. I believe I have to export it back from Lightroom as a Jpeg? is that right

If instead of pulling your images into Lightroom's library, just have Lightroom reference them in their current location.  Then Photo Mechanic can browse them where they exist as well.  As for viewing the adjustments made in Lightroom, that just isn't possible unless you're using the DNG RAW format since Adobe does not update the embedded Previews in any RAW file type besides DNG.
