carrbowl · **exporting LR?? -** 03-23-2011, 12:37 PM

so I export my photos from LR into a folder...and normally no problem. But today I need to burn the disc and I need to have the have the full photo. When I try to burn the file now, it appears I just have like the thumbnail, not the whole thing. How can I export it and get the whole enchilada?

Mix the margaritas. I'll be there after work.

I think there is a Lightroom preset for CD burning. Look on the left side of the screen. There are also various buttons to click for A. New folder, B. New folder under the current folder, etc.
What are you exporting? JPEG? What size? How many DPI?
It's hard to know exactly what to tell you since I don't have LR3 at work.

do you have a direct link to when I type?? : ) I think I am going to put you a desk next to mine..I may post less?? : )

Thanks Wayne...I will look further into LR...duh...what a concept?

Here you go. This will burn full size JPEGs to the folder of your choice. Then drag the folder to the CD and Bob's your uncle.

Yes and Yes.

ps: That screen is from LR1. The export system hasn't changed that much. You can pick sharpening for the JPEGs. Go easy on that.

there doesnt seem to be a way to write a cd directly in lightroom if you have 64 bit version

carrbowl · 03-27-2011, 10:36 PM

it kind of worked Wayne...couldn't go directly to a cd, but was able to get a full jpeg in a file...: ) thank you my friend!!! : )

Really? I'm running LR3 in the ancient version of Windows XP and CD/DVD is one of two options in the window at the very top of the Export screen. Hard Drive is the other.
Maybe you have to format/initialize/whatever the CD fiirst?
