Make sure the application(s) you wish to add to the Exposure external editing menu are installed on your computer before proceeding with these steps. It opens, processes the image, and closes, but the image is never actually changed. Nik HDR Efex does not work with Exposure. Exposure will reconcile the change and show the effect. It will launch the program, process the image, apply the setting, and then automatically close down. Nik software works with Exposure as a plug-in does in Photoshop. We recommend letting Exposure make the copy to TIFF or JPEG, and then loading it into the third party external editor. If you edit an original RAW file, the external application will save the file back to a TIFF or JPEG. On1 Photo and DxO FilmPack can read RAW and write out to TIFF or JPEG. The effect is correctly applied to the image, but you have to tell it to save the image (overwriting the copy if you ‘edited a copy’ from Exposure). On1 Photo and DxO FilmPack work well, but they open as a standalone so they don’t shutdown after the effect is processed. This ensures your TIFFs and JPEGs are consistent with your other files. Make your copies using Exposure, not the third party editor. Because of this there are some caveats for their use with Exposure. Plug-in applications load and save images differently than typical image editors. Editors that allow you to open an image, and then save after editing, work well with Exposure. These editors have not been thoroughly tested, but they will likely work well for you. Other External Applications Image editors These programs have been tested to work well with Exposure as external applications. Exposure 7 and earlier do not support external editing. This article applies to Alien Skin Exposure X and later versions. The Exposure Bundle installers automatically configure Snap Art and Blow Up as external applications during installation. Beyond these officially supported programs, a wide variety of applications may be added to your editing toolbox. Use Blow Up for crystal clear enlargements, add an artistic flourish with Snap Art, or do additional editing in Photoshop. Exposure lets you add external applications, allowing you to easily send images or copies of images to another application for edits that aren’t available in Exposure.
