In-Depth Information
If you want to show someone your slide show and they happen to be nearby,
then no sweat—you can show it right within Lightroom. But if they're not
standing nearby (perhaps it's a client across town or across the country), you
can output your slide show in a number of different formats, like Windows Movie
Format, QuickTime, Flash, and H.264, and these'll include your images, layout,
background music, and transitions. Sweet! You can also save your slide show
in PDF format, but if you do, sadly, it won't include your background music.
Slide Show
Step One:
To save your slide show in a video format
(with background music), click on the
Export Video button at the bottom of
the left side Panels area (as shown here).
Step Two:
This brings up the Export Slideshow to
Video dialog (shown here), where there's a
Video Preset pop-up menu listing different
sizes for your video. When you choose a
preset size, it tells you right below the menu
what that size works best for, and what type
of devices (or software) will read the file. So,
name your slide show, and then just choose
the size you want, then click the Export
(PC: Save) button and it creates the file for
you, in the size you choose, and in a com-
patible format for that type of video.
