# Intégration à un flux de travail : Lightroom

Photoshop Lightroom (from Adobe Systems) allows you to select another application as an "external editor" for editing your photos. Vous pouvez configurer LightZone pour être seulement un éditeur. Additionally, LightZone integrates seamlessly with Lightroom via the Direct Save preference.

Note: The information provided here is accurate as of Lightroom version 5.2 but may need to change for future versions.

## To configure Lightroom to work with LightZone:

1. Select Lightroom Edit > Preferences...
2. Click the External Editors tab.
3. Under Additional External Editor, click the Choose... button.
4. Navigate to and select LightZone.
5. For File Format, select TIFF.
6. For Bit Depth, select 16 bits/component.
7. Under Edit Externally File Naming, click Template list and select Edit...
8. In Filename Template Editor, input {Filename >>}-Edit in the text area.
9. Make sure that Example: IMG_0002-Edit.psd is shown, then click Done.
10. Close the Preferences window.

Alternatively, you can click the AppleScript icon to the left to configure Lightroom automatically for you now. (If Lightroom is running, you must quit it first.)

When using an external, Lightroom presents you with three choices:

- Edit Original
- Edit a Copy
- Edit a Copy with Lightroom Adjustments

For raw photos, Lightroom only allows the third choice. For JPEG or TIFF photos, you should select "Edit a Copy with Lightroom Adjustments" to avoid modifying your original photo. In that case, Lightroom:

1. Creates a TIFF copy of your photo.
2. Adds this TIFF copy to the current Lightroom library.
3. Gives this TIFF copy to the external editor to edit.

## To configure LightZone to work with Lightroom:

1. Select LightZone Edit > Preferences...
2. Make sure the Direct Save check-box is checked.
3. Close the Preferences dialog.

Now that everything has been configured, you can select one of your photos in Lightroom and edit it in LightZone.

## To edit your photo in LightZone from Lightroom:

1. In Lightroom, select the photo you want to edit.
2. Select Photo > Edit. (Lightroom will display its Edit Photo dialog offering you its three choices.)
3. If this is an original photo, select "Edit a Copy with Lightroom Adjustments." If this is a TIFF copy that was created earlier, select "Edit Original." (LightZone will launch and open your photo.)
4. In LightZone, edit your photo to your liking as you would any photo.
5. Select File > Save to Lightroom. (LightZone will save your edited photo back to the TIFF copy overwriting it, switch back to Lightroom, and Lightroom will reload the now edited TIFF copy of your photo.) it.
6. Switch back to Lightroom: it will reload the now edited version of your photo.

Note: Depending upon other Lightroom preferences, you may notice an exclamation point appear on the thumbnail of the TIFF copy of your photo in Lightroom after you've edited it in LightZone. If you click the exclamation point, Lightroom will inform you that the metadata for the photo has been changed by another application and ask you how to synchronize the data. The safest option is to select Overwrite Settings.
