Saving and Exporting Images
Up to optimize the compression of images with
even vertical patterns.
Average to optimize the compression of
low-level noise by averaging the color values of
adjacent pixels.
Paeth to optimize the compression of low-level
noise by reassigning adjacent color values.
Adaptive to apply the filtering algorithm—
Sub, Up, Average, or Paeth—best-suited for the
image. Select Adaptive if you are unsure of which
filter to use.
5
Click OK.
Saving files in TIFF format
TIFF is a flexible bitmap image format supported
by virtually all paint, image-editing, and page-
layout applications.
To save a file in TIFF format (Photoshop):
1
Choose File > Save As, and choose TIFF from
the format list.
2
Specify a filename and location, select saving
options (as described in “Setting file saving
options (Photoshop)” on page 358), and click
Save.
3
Select a compression method. (See “About file
compression” on page 365.) Keep in mind that
some applications cannot open TIFF files that are
saved with JPEG or ZIP compression. If you plan
to open the TIFF file in an application other than
Photoshop, LZW compression is recommended.
4
Select a byte order to determine file compati-
bility with IBM PC or Macintosh computers.
5
Select Save Image Pyramid to create a pyramid
data structure that contains multiresolution infor-
mation. The highest resolution is the image’s
resolution when you save it.
Note:
Photoshop doesn
t provide options for opening
multiresolution
les; however, Adobe InDesign and
some image servers provide support for opening
multiresolution formats.
6
Select Save Transparency if you want to preserve
transparency when the file is opened in another
application. When reopening the file in Photoshop
or ImageReady, transparency is always preserved,
regardless of whether you select this option.
7
Click OK.
To save a file in TIFF format (ImageReady):
1
Choose File > Export Original, and choose
TIFF from the format list.
2
Specify a filename and location, and click Save.
3
Select a compression method, and click OK.
(See “About file compression” on page 365.)
About file formats
You can use various file formats to get images into
and out of Photoshop and ImageReady. Graphic
file formats differ in the way they represent
graphic information (as pixels or as vectors), in
how they compress image data, and in which
Photoshop and ImageReady features they support.
