How to export DNG with previews?

Report · Dec 24, 2022

How come some exported dng files show up as previews and others with a DNG symbol? Is there a way for all DNG exports to have a preview image?

Confusing question, what is the source image being exported? Showing up as a preview? What file extension?

Could you post a full screen capture of the export dialog?

Where are you viewing the exported image?

If you exported a TIF or JPEG file as DNG then the thumbnail preview will be absent.
