Import and export templates
You can export templates you’ve created to share with colleagues or to use on a different computer. Templates are saved
with an .lrtemplate extension.

name of the template file and click Save.
• To import a template, right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac OS) the area where you want the template to
appear and choose Import. Double-click the template file.
Save web settings as a web collection
When you save web gallery settings as a web collection, you can add new photos to the collection and they automatically
include the web settings. This is different from custom templates, which include the output options but no photos. A
web collection applies the web settings to the photos in the collection.
1 In the Library module, select the photos for the web photo gallery.
2 In the Web module, select a template. Specify the settings you want in the Site Info, Color Palette, Appearance, Image
Info, Output Settings, and Upload Settings panels.
3 In the Filmstrip, select the photos to include them in web collection.
4 Click the Plus icon (+) in the Collections panel and choose Create Web Gallery.
5 Type a name for your web collection in the Create Web Gallery dialog box. Choose a collection set from the Set pop-
up menu to add the collection to an existing set, or choose None.
6 Under Web Gallery Options, select Include Selected Photos. Select Make New Virtual Copies if you want the
collection to include virtual copies instead of the original photos.
7 Click Create.
Lightroom adds the web collection to the Collections panel and gives it a grid icon .
