Get answers to common questions about converting Lightroom presets between different formats.
We support conversion between .lrtemplate, .xmp, and .dng formats. You can convert from any of these formats to any other supported format.
.lrtemplate is the native format for Lightroom Classic, while .xmp is Adobe's newer format that works with Adobe Camera Raw, Photoshop, and Lightroom CC. The .xmp format is more universal and future-proof.
Our conversion process preserves all adjustment settings including exposure, contrast, highlights, shadows, whites, blacks, clarity, vibrance, saturation, and more. The conversion is highly accurate and maintains the original preset's look.
Yes, you can upload and convert multiple preset files simultaneously. This saves time when you have many presets to convert.
There are reasonable file size limits to ensure fast processing. Most preset files are small enough to convert without any issues.
.xmp presets are compatible with Adobe Camera Raw (in Photoshop), Lightroom CC, Lightroom Classic (newer versions), and other Adobe applications that support the XMP format.
No, Lightroom CC only supports .xmp presets. You'll need to convert your .lrtemplate presets to .xmp format using our converter.
.lrtemplate presets work with all versions of Lightroom Classic. .xmp presets work with Lightroom Classic 7.3 and later, as well as Lightroom CC and Adobe Camera Raw.
Some preset settings may not be supported in all applications. The converter preserves as many settings as possible, but there might be slight differences due to application-specific features.
First, ensure your preset file is not corrupted. Try converting the file again, or if the issue persists, try converting files one at a time instead of batch conversion.
Try restarting the application after importing presets. Some applications require a restart to recognize new preset files. Also, make sure you're importing to the correct location in your application.
