I have here a batch of images which I exported from Lightroom 2 as TIFFs.
From these I wished to create downsized JPEGs for quick sample printing for another persons selection.
I was away from home and using Elements 3 on a laptop, the Elements JPEG Save as selection was limited to JPEG 2000 (.JPF,.JPX etc). Other TIFFs had no such restrictions.
I have never encountered this before.
What is going on here?

Re: Saving as JPEG (.JPG) Unexpected difficulty.
This kind of thing is usually due to the file being opened as 16 bit, and needing to be converted to an 8 bit file first.Omega892 wrote:I was away from home and using Elements 3 on a laptop, the Elements JPEG Save as selection was limited to JPEG 2000 (.JPF,.JPX etc).

I have indeed found that some file preferences in that area in Lightroom had been changed and I do not recall doing that.
