When it comes to working with photos, Adobe gives you two powerhouse pro tools, Lightroom and Photoshop. If you’re not sure which one to use for your kind of work, check out Roberto Blake’s article, Should You Use Photoshop CC, Elements, or Lightroom?
But then what if you want to use the features of both Photoshop and Lightroom on the same image? In that case, you need to know how to move the image back and forth seamlessly between the two applications. And to learn how to do that, check out this new video from Adobe’s Julienanne Kost.
In the video, Julieanne shows how to set up your preferences to open images in Photoshop from Lightroom, using the correct file format, resolution, bit depth, and color space.
She also demonstrates how to control whether or not the version of the image you edited in Photoshop is stacked on top of the original in Lightroom, as well as how to control the file names of your edited images. It’s super easy and super useful. Check it out!
