LR not saving changes on Export - Not exporting using 'Original'

[davem54525961]

Hi,

I'm using Lightroom CC on iMac with Sierra v.10.12.3

None of my changes are saved when I export photos.  I am exporting as DNG's, made sure not to export as 'Original' so can't understand why no changes are saved.

I attach screenshots showing image before export, the export settings and the image after export so you can see what I'm doing.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

DNGs contain the original pixels when you export them. What you are seeing is the right result. The changes are saved as "text" in the DNG file, which certain other Adobe applications can read and interpret and show you the edits. If you want to export a file and see the  changes, you need to choose JPG, TIF or PSD.
