The PDF Reader shows it how I want it to print, but when I open or import it into the Flexi program it is wrong. With X-4 it looks mostly right, except where there is an appearance opacity and blending mode, also it shows everything under the clipping masks. ai files correctly, ever, so I saved it as a PDF/X-1a:2001 and PDF/X-4a:2010 and Highest Quality Print and Flexi still does not show it as the PDF reader does. Both Lightroom and Photoshop will do this - although I tend to use Photoshop - Save for Web just because I am used to it.I have a large design I am going to need to print, I made it in illustrator even though illustrator cannot have that large of canvas, but I can make it larger in Flexi and it would print fine. Export : If I need an image for web I use Export to produce a suitably sized jpeg.

Printing : This can be done from Lightroom or Photoshop (personally I tend to use Photoshop but that is just personal choice.Ħ. This opens a copy, with the additional Lightroom adjustments, but as a flattened image in Photoshop.ĥ.

On Save (Ctrl+S) a new copy appears in Lightroom with the changes in Photoshop and with the additional Lightroom adjustments re-appliedĬ. Edit a copy - this opens a copy in Photoshop without the Lightroom adjustments. However on Save, those additional Lightroom adjustments are re-applied.ī. Edit original - this opens in Photoshop with all layers intact but without the additional Lightroom adjustments. If I need to re-open in Photoshop then I get a choice:Ī. In Lightroom use Ctrl+E to Edit in PhotoshopĬtrl+S to Save - this will add the PSD to the Lightroom catalogueįurther adjustments can be done in Lightroom. Use the Develop module for adjustments - sharpening, noise reduction etc Set Lightroom Preferences for external editing to TIFF or PSD (I use PSD but it is really personal choice).Ĭull as required - be ruthless and get rid of the dross I work a lot with both Lightroom and Photoshop if I describe my workflow it may help you.ġ.
