Help needed!

May 4th, 2011
I just edited most of a wedding that is due, using lightroom. All the photos were shot from raw files from a Nikon D90 and Nikon D60. When exporting them, I accidentally saved them at only 50% resolution. Also, when I was finished with them, I removed them from Lightroom, losing the opportunity to re-export.

2 questions that I need help with soon:
1) Will there be a noticeable difference in print quality, because the photos still look great on the screen?
2) Is there any way to re-import the photos into Lightroom and get back the edits I have already done?

Any info you all have on this would be appreciated! Thank you!

To clarify, this was done under Export-File Settings-Quality at 50%.

In my experience, there will not be a noticeable lack of quality unless printed very large.

Have you emptied the trash in your computer? I know my deletions from lightroom go there. You may still have them all! You can import your edited pics from where ever you have them saved on your computer. Go to Import, then navigate to that location, and highlight all of the ones that you want imported.

@cdford Thanks for your help. The problem is after re-importing, it only imports the raw file and not any of the edits with it.
