Select the DNG/Preset files you would like to import. This step may be a little different depending on your mobile phone, however most phones offer a way to select multiple files/images.
NOTE: Preset files are DNG files. When you initially open the image, you may get an error that says, “Cannot Load File”. This is normal. Press the check mark in the corner anyway.
​
Step 4 Add the DNG Preset Files
To add a preset, click on one of the newly imported files,
then click on the three dots inside a circle (...) in the upper right-hand corner of the screen.
From there, choose “Create Preset” from the menu that appears.
​
​
Step 5 Create Lightroom Presets from the DNG Files
Give your preset a name. We recommend to type the same name
that is on the front of the preset image (to keep things simple).
You should also put the preset in a Preset Group. By default,
it will be in the User Presets group. Creating a new group with your new collection’s name
will keep the presets from each collection together.
Do these same steps for each DNG/preset file.
​
​
Step 6 Using Your New Presets
Select an image in the Lightroom Mobile App that you would like to edit.
Swipe left on the bottom options until you see "Presets" and tap on that option.
It will open with your most recently used preset collection.
By tapping on the collection name, you can choose the new collection you just installed.
Click through the presets until you find the one you like.
When you are finished adding your preset, click the check mark in the lower right corner.

Step 1 Download the files
Click “My Free Bundle” and start downloading files.
​
Step 2 Unzip and save the Files
Save and unzip the folder of presets that you downloaded.
​
You can locate the preset bundle in any folder on your computer.
For instance you can create a PRESET folder, so that you can collect there all your preset files.
​
You can easily do this on a computer.
On a Mac, just double-click the file and Mac's unzipping utility does the rest.
On a PC, just right-click on the zipped folder and choose "Extract All" from the menu of options.
​
Open the Preset Folder and choose the Desktop Folder in order to get
the “name.lrtemplate” files, for instance “summer.lrtemplate”, that is how the computer calls your preset.
Step 3 Open Adobe Lightroom Classic CC on your computer and install the Preset Files
Open Lightroom and click on the Lightroom tab (to the left of File), then click on Preferences on a Mac Computer.
Edit at the top (next to File), then click on Preferences on a PC.
There will be a new screen that pulls, click on Presets (the second tab).
Then, click on the box titled, Show Lightroom Presets Folder.
Step 4 Create your Preset Files
Paste the folder (For instance “Four Seasons Preset Bundle”) from your new Preset Folder
(the one you have just created after downloading the files)
that holds the “name.lrtemplate” files into this Develope Presets folder.
You're done now !
If your Lightroom was open when you copied the Presets, you will need to close and restart it.
And now for the last step… how to use your new Presets !!
Select a picture you want to edit from the Lightroom Catalogue while in Library mode.
Shift to Develop mode and find out your new Preset Bundle.
If the preset collection name shows in Lightroom but not the individual presets,
click the triangle to the left of the collection name and the templates will drop down.
Choose from the Bundle Collection the Preset that fit better with your image and tap on it.
