Exporting to image file formats (BMP, JPG, TIF, PNG, GIF)

1. On the File menu, click Export.
2. In the Export dialog box that appears, consider your case:

• To export the file as an individual file, click To File.

• To export a file to Project Organizer, click Project Organizer. NOTE: Project Organizer needs to be installed.

The Export dialog box appears.

3. In Look in, browse to a folder in which you want to save the exported file.
4. In File name, type the file name. (You do not need to type the file extension; it is added automatically.)
5. In Files of type, select the file format that you need.
6. Transparent background (PNG files only).
7. In Background color, select a color for the background for the exported file. TIP: In the dropdown list, select one of the available colors for the background of the exported file. Alternatively, you can create your own background colors, which you can use in future export jobs.
8. In Image width, height, type values and select metric units (pixels, <current globally set metrics>) for how large you want the image to be when exported. To keep the size of the exported image in the original aspect ratio, select the Keep aspect ratio check box. This guarantees that while typing a value in any of the cells (Image width or Image height), the other will change accordingly, preserving the original aspect ratio of the image.
9. (Optional) In Resolution, enter a DPI (dots-per-inch) value.
10. To execute the export, click Save.
