Sharing Develop Settings
You can share your develop settings with other ACDSee Pro users. To do this, you export the processing settings from the database
to a file, which has an .rpp file extension. You can then send the image and the settings file, to another ACDSee Pro user, who can
import the .rpp settings into their ACDSee Pro database. When they open the image in ACDSee, the developed photo will have the
appearance you intended.
For RAW files, your changes are stored in the XMP file. To share settings for RAWfiles, XMP sidecar files are the preferred way for
sharing settings.

When you send the image and the .rpp file to another ACDSee Pro user, tell them to keep the image and the .rpp file
together in the same folder.
