Lightroom and CS5

(1/1)

sjordan93436:
The embedded color has bit me.  I know there is a simple answer.

I gather my photos in LR.  Then Edit in Photoshop CS 5 (32 bit).  In LR preferences, I set it to Pro Photo rgb.  I edit in CS 5.  I went back to my RAW files.  Then save.   

When I look at the files in LR (the saved RGB PSD), they are grossly oversaturated. 

Back into CS, if I discard the embedded profile, things are good.

What am I doing wrong?  I want to see my files accurately in LR.  Eventually save them as high quality jpg for printing a photo book.

Greg Groess:
Does Light Room use the XML files from the camera raw process to display the image?  ACR stores the attributes you assign in the XML files and CS5 will use that to open the image after you have converted it once. 

You are not saving over the RAW files you are re-writing the side car XML.

Could be the root of the problem...

Try converting your RAW files to .dng if not.
