Chapter 7: Creating and viewing
slideshows
A slideshow created with Adobe® Photoshop® Lightroom™ is a convenient way to present your photos with music and
transitions. You can customize how a slideshow looks and plays, and save your slideshow options as a template.
Slideshows can include your identity plate on every slide, and individual images can display captions or image
metadata. You can present your slideshow in full-screen mode, or using a second monitor.
If you need to share a slideshow with others, or play it on another computer, you can export the slideshow as a PDF
file. Exported slideshows play without music.
You can play an impromptu slideshow from the Library or Develop modules. An impromptu slideshow plays using
the current template and settings in the Slideshow module. This is a convenient way to view images at full screen,
and rate, rotate, or delete images in a folder using keyboard shortcuts.
Creating slideshows
Slideshow module overview
In the Slideshow module, you specify the photo and text layout of the slides in your presentation. The left panels
contain a list of templates and a preview of their layouts. The Slide Editor view in the center displays the photos in a
slide template. A toolbar below the Slide Editor contains controls for playing a preview of the slideshow and adding
text to the slides. The right panels contain controls for specifying how the photos appear in the template layout,
modifying the template, adding text to the slide layout, and selecting playback settings.
