That said, after your Lightroom work is completed, you can create a Photoshop droplet and have that do the CMYK conversion. You would probably need to upgrade to a current version of Photoshop from the near-ancient one you are using.
I'm curious about the context of your needing to convert to CMYK? I assume you have specific ICC profile(s) for your print provider?

Just to be clear, I'm currently using Photoshop Elements 12, not Photoshop 6. So, I have a very current
editor that does not offer CMYK support.
When you say 'create a Photoshop droplet' I assume that requires full PS, not PSE. As for need, it's an
assumption on my part based on requested output whenever I do send something to print. The last time
I had promotional materials printed, (earlier this year, after I had upgraded to PSE12), the printer accepted
the files as RGB with the caveat that they couldn't be responsible for color inaccuracies. In the end, the
printed material looked fine for what it was, (low resolution business cards and event flyers).
I'll confess that I'm still quite minimally knowledgeable about the print side of the equation. My assumption
has always been that CMYK output is ideal to ensure true blacks. If this can be disregarded by having
the specific ICC profiles necessary, all the better.
