About the Tips, Tricks, and Downfalls category

(Replace this first paragraph with a brief description of your new category. This guidance will appear in the category selection area, so try to keep it below 200 characters. Until you edit this description or create topics, this category won’t appear on the categories page.)

Use the following paragraphs for a longer description, or to establish category guidelines or rules:

  • Why should people use this category? What is it for?

  • How exactly is this different than the other categories we already have?

  • What should topics in this category generally contain?

  • Do we need this category? Can we merge with another category, or subcategory?

So I’m a brand new Topaz Denoise AI user. The articles I’m reading say that the workflow should be first Topaz and then Lightroom. I understand that when I manipulate a raw image in Topaz I need to save it in another format like TIFF. Which means that when I bring that image back into Lightroom it is not Raw. Won’t this impact the rest of my Lightroom post processing, not being Raw?

What am I not getting?

Thanks!
