I use Luminar 4 as plugin for Lightroom. If i export a raw image from Lightroom to Luminar and use for example the sky replacement. I get after this the image back as a Tiff. Last time i use this i see the ready image after using Luminar in Lightroom and can export as Jpeg

 

If I use Luminar as stand alone solution i can change without Problems in Jpeg 

 

How i can fix this?

  Hi,

  When you edit a photo with any of our apps as a plugin, you get a heavier file afterwards (in TIFF format). This is done to preserve maximum quality. That's just how plugins work. However, after the image is returned to Lightroom, you can export it in any format of your choice.

  I agree, it would be useful to export back to lightroom as a jpeg rather than export a tif and then have to convert.  My reasoning is that once the Tif file has been exported from LR into Luminar, then 'processed', I no longer need the Tif.  I still have the original RAW file in my library so can always go back to that if needed.

  Photolab works that way and I find it a convenient way to save storing a lot of large, unneeded Tifs.

  Just to add - I would like the choice of Tiff or Jpeg at the export back to LR stage.
