How to Use: Lightroom Classic Export Preset Recipe from Catalog Notes (No Invented Pixel Totals)
How to use the Lightroom Classic Export Preset Recipe from Catalog Notes (No Invented Pixel Totals) PromptDig prompt without inventing metrics.

You pasted messy Lightroom Classic catalog notes and need a clean deliverable without invented numbers. This PromptDig prompt turns only what you already listed into a structured export preset recipe for export preset handoffs.
What this prompt does
It locks your catalog notes, version, labels, and domain fields, then builds a ledger plus a table that refuses fake metrics. Missing cells stay NOT IN INPUTS instead of guessing.
Use it when you already have real stubs from Lightroom Classic and want a teachable export preset recipe for this job, not a generic template swap from another vendor. The Generate steps name Lightroom Classic nouns on purpose so a title swap into another category would fail the swap-title test.
The deliverable is aimed at Lightroom Classic export preset recipes. Reviewers should see your locked nouns echoed in the table rows, not marketing fluff. Cap style limits stay soft unless you add them later in Extra.
How to fill the brackets
- Paste your catalog notes with concrete nouns only. Prefer two labeled rows so the example shape stays visible after you swap names.
- Lock Version to what you actually run. If you do not know the version, write unknown rather than guessing a marketing release name.
- Fill labels you may quote only when you already have names you are allowed to use.
- Complete the domain fields that match this job. Leave blanks as UNKNOWN instead of inventing pixel totals, sharpening scores, print lab ranks.
- Set Banned and Never to the phrases you refuse. Keep Format and Lang explicit.
Keep Harbor Quay sample nouns out of your production paste. Those labels exist only so the example_input shows two concrete rows. Replace them with your real labels before you run the prompt.
Who it is for
Catalog specialists who inherit messy Lightroom Classic catalog notes. It is also useful when a teammate hands you a partial export and you need a export preset recipe that stays honest about gaps.
How to run it
- Open Lightroom Classic Export Preset Recipe from Catalog Notes (No Invented Pixel Totals) on PromptDig.
- Copy the prompt into ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini.
- Replace every bracket with your locked catalog notes. Do not leave sample Harbor nouns in place if they are not yours.
- Run once, then fix only the gaps list. Do not ask the model to invent missing metrics.
- Paste the export preset recipe into your handoff doc and keep NOT IN INPUTS visible for reviewers.
What good output looks like
A strong run starts with an honesty ledger that quotes your locked nouns and Version. The tables attach only names that appeared beside each other in Inputs. Refuse lines explicitly reject fake pixel totals, sharpening scores, print lab ranks.
Weak output invents metrics, adds vendor features not in Version, or swaps in another tool's nouns. If you see that, tighten Banned and Never, then rerun.
Common mistakes
- Inventing pixel totals, sharpening scores, or print lab ranks the notes never stated.
- Treating UNKNOWN as a cue to guess defaults.
- Dropping the gaps list so reviewers cannot see what is still owed.
- Softening Never so the model pads with industry averages.
- Swapping the title to Capture One or Photoshop and expecting the body to stay useful.
Why notes-first compilers beat guesswork
Most failed runs happen when the model fills empty cells with confident fiction. This prompt is built to refuse that pattern. It asks for an honesty ledger first so you can see which nouns were actually locked before any table rows appear.
Keep your catalog notes short and concrete. Two labeled stubs are enough for a teachable example. If a teammate later adds more stubs, re-run with the same Version so the export preset recipe stays comparable across handoffs.
When you share the result with a reviewer, point them at the refuse list and the gaps bullets. Those sections are the audit trail. They show what the model was not allowed to invent, which is the whole point of this PromptDig job.
Honesty also protects you from soft plagiarism of vendor marketing pages. The prompt refuses testimonials, star ratings, and press logos that were never in Inputs. Your wiki stays a map of what you pasted, not a brochure.

Reviewer pass
Ask a second person to scan for invented numbers, tool nouns from another vendor, and missing gaps bullets. If any appear, tighten Never and rerun once. Keep the original catalog notes block attached so audits stay cheap.
Privacy and safety notes
Strip personal emails, student identifiers, patient details, and payment account numbers before you paste. If regulated content appears, keep the one-line not-advice banner the prompt asks for. Do not ask the model to fabricate compliance certificates.
Final checklist
- Catalog notes pasted with at least two concrete rows
- Version locked or marked unknown
- Domain fields filled or UNKNOWN
- Banned and Never explicit
- Output keeps NOT IN INPUTS and a five-bullet gaps list
