GarthT Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Hello, I am using Lightroom classic to house my photo library. I would like to import edited versions of my photographs into an affinity publisher document (attached) in which I have several photo frames. Ideally, I would like to be able to drag and drop the edited version of the photograph from Lightroom into a photo frame in my Publisher document. Sometimes when I do this it seems to work (I usually need to re-set the frame properties to view the whole image); on other occasions a new Publisher document is created with the RAW file version of the photograph. I can't work out what I am doing when it (almost) works and what I am doing when it doesn't!! Thanks for any guidance Garth One plus four templateV-1.afpub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff stokerg Posted February 4, 2020 Staff Share Posted February 4, 2020 Hi GarthT and Welcome to the Forums, Just been testing this and only time i get a new document in Publisher is when i've dragged an image into the blank area at the side of the page. As long as i move the image over the Frame and release, the image ends up in the frame, each time. Could you provide a screen recording showing the issue?

Fixx Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 I do not think LR is capable of supplying edited version via drag&drop. I would export TIFFs and import them to Publisher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarthT Posted February 4, 2020 Author Share Posted February 4, 2020 Thanks for the welcome - I have attached the screen recording as requested, which shows the issue. I suspect it is possible as on one occasion when I was trying to drag and drop the file it did go into the photo frame - I no idea what I did though!!

Thanks for this - I have done this as you suggested and this works well - I was hoping for a drag and drop solution to speed up my work flow. mpowell and Fixx 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
