Export Camera Raw sidecar XMP from DB

Jul 25, 2012 12:18 PM

Tags: #export #xmp #camera_raw

Hi

 

I forgot to change my options for xmp sidecar files in bridge last time I installed it. For a good two months it's been saving xmp data in the camera raw databse instead of in sidecar XMP files.

 

Now I need to move a whole bunch of raw files to a new computer and I don't want to lose all the camera raw adjustments. Is there a trick to write out the info it has in the databse to XMP files along with the corresponding raw files?

 

As a last resort, would it be possible to import the existing xmp data in the DB on computer 1 into a already existing DB on computer 2?

 

thanks

    ACR has an Export Settings to XMP menu item in the menu available by clicking the arrow-and-three-lines icon at the right of the title area of the tabs in the right panel of ACR.

     

    On my Windows 7 computer the camera-raw database file appears to be:

     

    C:\users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw\Database
