Syncing should be automatic and relatively quick for small JPG files. Once that is done, click Export to save the copy to the synced folder. Once you’ve configured the Destination panel to save the exported copy to your Creative Cloud Files folder, as well as the image specific settings for this export job, click the Add button to save the export settings as a preset you can reuse again the future. I created a subfolder called Email Attachments, but you can use what ever folder name you want. If you’re not sure where that is, open the Creative Cloud Application manager, click on Your Files, then click Open Sync Folder to open your system’s file browser to its location on your drive. This also assumes you’ve installed the Creative Cloud application manager, which should create a local folder named Creative Cloud Files, whose contents are kept in-sync with the storage you have in the cloud.Ĭonfigure the Export dialog based on the desired file settings, but in the Destination panel, click the Choose button and navigate to that Creative Cloud Files folder on your system.

Not much, but certainly enough for the occasional JPG you might want to send to someone via email. I assume most people reading this blog are subscribers to one of the Creative Cloud plans, and if so, included with your plan is at least 20GB of cloud storage. You’re probably already paying for one or more of them. Of course you could simply attach those photos to an email or save them to a thumbdrive to transfer to someone else, but there a variety of cloud storage options that make sharing large files very easy. Last week I wrote about some ways to share photos from Lightroom Classic using the good old Export dialog.
