Create export actions
You can put any item in the Export Actions folder that can be opened with a set of photo files. For example, you can
place an executable file or shortcut (Windows), or application or alias (Mac OS) in the Export Actions folder. Items
added to the folder are listed in the After Export menu of the Export dialog box the next time you export photos.
You can also add Photoshop droplets or script files to the Export Actions folder.

Export plug-ins
Lightroom supports plug-ins from third parties that add functionality to the Export dialog box. Depending on what
third-party plug-ins you have installed, different options may be available in the Export dialog box. Check with the
plug-in developer for support or documentation for their software.
Plug-ins located in the following folders are automatically loaded by Lightroom and can be enabled and disabled by the
Plug-In Manager, but not removed:
• Mac OS: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom/Modules
• Windows 7 and 8: C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Lightroom\Modules
