Not in LR. They are a mandatory part of the image import and workflow process.

yes in lightroom. it has various options for previews and if it needs a bigger preview than it has cached, it will need to rerender it.

Sandman
Exactly.

Eric Stevens
And that's what happens when you export an image.

Sandman
Nope. LR doesn't render a preview when it exports an image.

Eric Stevens
Then from where does it get the preview that is bigger than it has cached?

Sandman
The cached preview is 1:1 if you've worked with it.

That potentially makes it a space hog if you produce large prints.

DxO doesn't save a preview but does save all the edits in an XMP sidecar. So too does NX-D. NX-2 stuffs (possibly multiple) sidecars in an edited NEF file. However, none of these have LR's cataloguing. --
