Lightroom reads the RAW data and performs whatever edits you want on it dynamically, so in essence everything you are seeing is a processed RAW file if the files you imported are RAW files. It does not render the image out to an RGB file format (PSD, JPEG, TIFF) until you say "Export" or tell it to edit a file in Photoshop or other image editor. This is a major advantage as it saves space on the hard drive.
You can export anywhere from one to as many photos that are in the library at any time, so it is automatically batch converting whenever you want it to.
