You can convert an XMP format preset to DNG so that you can use it in Lightroom Mobile or any other compatible editing software. To insert the preset adjustments into an image and export it in DNG format, you need access to software that is compatible with both formats, such as Lightroom Classic or Lightroom CC.

Remember that DNG is an image format, so you will need a base image in RAW, DNG or TIFF format to save the preset adjustments that come with the XMP format preset. Once created, this image can be used to apply the same edits to any other image.

Convert XMP preset to DNG using Lightroom

By following these steps, you can create a DNG image that will contain the XMP preset adjustments and use it as a DNG preset in Lightroom Mobile or any other compatible image editing software.

1 – Open Lightroom on your computer
You can use any of the latest versions of Lightroom CC and Lightroom Classic.

2- Import a RAW image into Lightroom
Select an image in RAW, DNG or TIFF format to which you want to apply the XMP preset. Any image will do, but it is recommended to choose one to which the edit looks good to easily identify the type of edit that we get with that DNG preset later.

3- Apply the preset
Apply the XMP format preset to the image you previously loaded. If you want to keep the original preset, do not modify any values.

4- Export the image
Go to the “Export” tab and select “DNG” from the “File Format” dropdown menu. In the “Export Settings” section, select the “Export settings” option and make sure the “Include process adjustments” option is checked.

5- Save the file
The DNG image file you have created now contains the same preset adjustments as the XMP format preset. You can save the DNG file in your preferred folder and load it to use its preset adjustments in other applications such as Lightroom Mobile and edit any image.
