PS, HDREfex Pro, etc.then, in the library, or develop mode, you can select a photo, and from the drop-down top-menu under Photo, you select "Edit In"You'll be presented with a list of your predefined external editors... When you select one... LR pops up a menu of options of how you want the external editor to open...with a Copy of your LR image... with/without any LR settings you've already made...from this point, LR opens the external editor with the image as you've defined above... make whatever adjustments you want in PS, HDREfEx, Topaz etc... and when you click the Save/Done button in the editor...you're returned to LR with the changes/effects you made in the external editor...from there, you can use LR to print/export your image in any one of a brazzillion formats/sizes etc.edited to add: I use a Mac, so there may be some minor differences in the above relative to a PC...If you dig around all the external editors, or read thru the LR setup guides, they all have the suggested settings for the LR Preferences page relative to the file type, Tiff, and suggested compression/settings etc for their respective programs...</blockquote>
