The [Output Specification] settings control the file type, colorspace, and color correction options of the exported file.
File Format
- Choose the file format (TIFF, Targa, Scitex, Bitmap, JPEG) that you want to export your image as. If you are exporting from a PostScript file, TIFF is automatically used as the file format.
Pixel Format
- Choose the pixel format (CMYK, RGB, Grayscale, or Color Mapped) you want to use for the exported image. Some pixel formats are not available for some File Formats.
Use Compression
- Check the [Use Compression] checkbox if you want your exported image to be compressed. When exporting as a Bitmap or JPEG, this option is not available. If you are exporting from a PostScript file, this option cannot be unchecked.
Use Color Correction
- If you want your image to be exported with the current color correction applied, mark the Use Color Correction checkbox. If your image does not have any color correction filters or tools, then this option is not used.
The output size settings determine the size and resolution of the exported image.
Width
- The width value determines the width of the exported image.
Height
- The height value determines the height of the exported image.
Units
- Choose the type of units to be shown in the Width and Height selections.
Resolution
- Select the resolution (in DPI) that you want for the exported image. Because the resolution has a significant factor on the file size of the image, check the Approximate File Size value before exporting the image.
