Exporting to another file format
In many situations, you’ll want to save a file to one of the standard graphics
formats. In PhotoPlus, this is known as exporting.
Exporting an image means converting it to a specified graphic file format other
than the native PhotoPlus (.spp) format. This flattens the image, removing layer
information.
Only the SPP and the Photoshop PSD formats preserves image information,
such as multiple layers, masks, or image map data that would be lost in
conversion to another format.
The Export process itself can be carried out by using an Export Optimizer
where you can compare export previews for multiple file formats before export.
The Export Optimizer consists of a right-hand preview display (single, dual, or
quad) and a left-hand settings region, with additional View and Zoom buttons
along the bottom of the dialog. Dual and quad previews let you test and compare
between different export formats in each pane—simply select a preview pane
and then test various quality settings, change format-specific options or resize
before going ahead with your optimized file's export—it even retains your
preferred settings for each format!
