Question

Copy photo to other (MS office) documents

In the Photoshop Elements I used to simple right-click (windows) a photo in my catalog to copy it and then paste it into either an MS-Word, MS-Powerpoint or MS-Outlook document. The only copy-paste items I can see in Lightroom (Classic) are greyed-out. Is there a workaround other than exporting the photo(s)?

Hey @Jan Maarten_Gaasbeek1964 Copy and paste in Lightroom doesn’t copy the image itself, but rather the editing settings, which can then be applied to other images in Lightroom. You'll need to export the image.
