Imagen AI is compatible with Lightroom Classic but is not limited to it. Imagen also supports:
- Lightroom CC
- Photoshop (ACR)
- Bridge (ACR)
This guide covers uploading and downloading projects when the source photos are from Lightroom CC, Photoshop, or Bridge.
Upload a project
- From the Projects tab, click Create a new project. Then, choose Edit.
- Choose the editing software you use.
If you only have the option to choose a Lightroom Classic catalog, see Switch between Adobe editing software in this guide.
If you don't see the list of supported software, see this troubleshooting guide.
- Choose the folder where your photos are located. Imagen supports uploading JPEG, TIFF, or RAW files. Hover over the (!) next to RAW formats to see all supported file types.
- Drag and drop the folder containing the photos, or click Browse to find them. Do not move the folder from this location until you've reviewed your edits.
- Name the project, select the AI Profile to edit your photos, and select the Additional AI tools to improve editing. JPEG photos can only be edited with JPEG AI Profiles and RAW photos with RAW AI Profiles.
- Click Upload. Click Uploading in the top right corner to see the status of the project upload.
Download a project
- Once the edits are ready, click Download to review.
The Download edits window opens.
- Check the download path. By default, it's the same folder as the original files. If you have moved your files, click Browse to find them.
- Click Download edits.
- Click Next.
- Choose your Adobe editing software.
Your edits open in the software you chose. For photos in RAW format, Imagen creates a sidecar XMP file in the same folder as the original photos. For photos in JPEG and DNG format, the XMP information is embedded, so you won't see the sidecar files. For more information about seeing your edits, see this guide.
