P: Image Sizing for Printing Out the Photos

In the cloud-based Lightroom app, I'd like to be able to size my photos to the exact crop ratios, inch/cm dimensions, and/or dpi resolutions so that I could generate an image to be sent for printing. I want to be sure that the images I send out to print are in the size that I want and with an appropriate resolution. I know that this feature exists in Lightroom classic, it would be fantastic to have it in the cloud-based Lightroom. Please and thank you!

Welcome to the Lightroom Community. I'll help you figure this out.

 

This is a particular workflow. If it is a feasible number of images, you can export them from Lightroom (cloud) as Original + Settings (XMP) & import them to Lightroom Classic for Printing.

 

 

You can also try exporting in specific PPI by selecting Custom Settings > Dimensions > Custom > Change 'Long Side' To inches from pixels.

 

For help in understanding how PPI can be utilized in place of DPI, check the response from our community expert here:

Let me know if it helps,
Thanks!
