Print to JPEG

You can save photos as JPEG files in the Print module for sharing with a print service provider. When you print to JPEG, Lightroom lets you choose a resolution, apply print sharpening, and set the compression quality. You can also specify dimensions of the file and apply an RGB ICC profile and a rendering intent.

  1. In the Print Job panel of the Print module, choose Print To > JPEG FIle.
  2. Specify a resolution between 72 ppi and 600 ppi in the File Resolution box.
  3. Specify the amount of Print Sharpening desired: Low, Medium, or High.
  4. Specify the amount of compression using the JPEG Quality slider. JPEG uses lossy compression, discarding data to make a file smaller. Drag the slider or enter a value from 0 through 100.
  5. Specify custom file dimensions by selecting Custom File Dimensions and entering values in the width and height fields.
  6. Specify color management options.
