How to add a new preset in Adobe Photoshop Lightroom

Adobe has a lot of interesting programs and most of them are used to transfer files and can be made even better, the best known example is Photoshop. The program can do many things with any image and includes the ability to edit any existing image with all of the functions available. Photoshop helps many people because many of them made money selling Photoshop objects.

In addition to Photoshop, there is also a program that can be viewed as a supplement to Photoshop, called Adobe Photoshop Lightroom. The difference to this Lightroom cannot be used to manipulate images just like Photoshop just to add up the details of color, lighting, and others. When I think for the part interface Image editing is the same as Camera Raw which is in Photoshop and only offers more functions in Lightroom.

For users new to this program, they may be wondering how to edit an image when there is no menu in the File menu to open a new image. That’s because you need to open an image in Lightroom importin order to save the picture you have to do the opposite, ie export. Then about the presets that have the format lrtemplate? It’s very easy, and that’s how it works.


  1. First, open the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom program and currently I’m using version 5.xx and it will likely be the same for all versions.

  2. When you entered the library please look at the bottom left and press the button Import.

The above method may seem very long and difficult, but if the user reads while practicing, it will be easy once and for all to know it and to remember it forever. The point is to add this preset file, you can do that in the menu area To develop and for the preset files you can find on google, there are many presets that can be downloaded for free.
