Once you have the Photomatix Lightroom Plug-In installed, you will need to first import and then select the exposures that you would like to export into Photomatix Pro. There are installation instructions for both the Windows and Mac versions of the free Lightroom plug-in, here on the HDRsoft website: This will only work if the images have received no post-processing of any sort. If you later decide to purchase a license for Photomatix Pro, you can actually run images which were previously processed in Photomatix Pro, back through the software, which will remove the watermarks. This trial version will never expire, but it does leave watermarks on saved images. If you have never tried Photomatix Pro, you can download a free and fully functional trial version from the HDRsoft website. If you already have a license for Photomatix Pro, but would like to start using the plug-in, then you can simply re-download Photomatix Pro again. ![]() To get this plug-in, you would first need to download Photomatix Pro from the HDRsoft website.
